Income shown in ITR


This query is : Resolved 

Quick Summary
This discussion clarifies how to declare income from selling books in an Income Tax Return (ITR). If the individual has a business of selling books, even with a small turnover, the income should be reported under the 'Profits and Gains from Business or Profession' (PGBP) head, not 'Income from Other Sources'.

14 October 2025 Respected sirs
When client has income by selling books and income from sale of books is being shown in ITR by the consultant under income from other sources. Is it correct? And also kindly enlighten me as to the correctness of showing Income offered for assessment( without mentioning any particulars) under income from other sources in ITR.
Thanks and regards

14 October 2025 Whether the person is having business of selling books?

14 October 2025 yes sir there is business of selling books with small turnover below 20 lakhs per annum

14 October 2025 In that case you have to declare the income under PGBP head, as business turnover and not under IFOS.

14 October 2025 thank you very much sir. so kind of you

15 October 2025 You are welcome.
