12 August 2017 1. You can file ITR 3.... 2. You are not applicable u/s 44AD. Bcoz, ITR 4 (presumptive taxation) is not applicable for agri income above Rs. 5000.... 3. Yes. That is Total turn over... Both calculation ll be applicable and also you add the details separately as agriculture income and business income... Also both are calculated in ITR then you get liabilities after adjustments......

FY 2016-17 = ITR 3 is normal returns. ITR 4 is presumptive return
