I am a CA holding full time COP.I am doing Job under an Advocate but TDS deducted u/s 194J. My gross receipts is Rs. 9 lakh up to Sep. 2013. My problem is if i show these as professional fees than service tax registration is compulsory. Can i show income from oct. to march as salary income if deductor not deducted tds u/s 194J? whether ICAI permit this???

1. If TDS has been deducted, the income will be shown under "Income from Business/ profession.
2. If you, on prospective basis, ask your employer to deduct TDS under 192b, then your COP will convert into part time COP and you won't be allowed to do attest functions.
