Change from employee to consultant


This query is : Resolved 

Quick Summary
This discussion addresses an individual who retired from employment and is now receiving consultancy fees. They are seeking advice on the correct Income Tax Return (ITR) form to use, specifically whether ITR1, ITR2, or ITR3 is appropriate. The consensus suggests ITR3 or ITR4, with a recommendation to consider ITR4 under presumptive taxation scheme 44ADA for simplicity, declaring 50% of the consultancy income.

23 July 2022 I am a Chartered Accountant and retired from Service in FY 2020-21.
In FY 2021-22 I have received Consultation Fee for which TD has been deducted u/s 194JB.
Can I file my return in ITR1 or ITR2 or I have to file in ITR3?
A prompt response will help me file my return in time.
