This discussion addresses a lecturer's query about the correct Income Tax Return (ITR) form. The individual earns income from two colleges, with TDS deducted under sections 194C and 194JB. They are seeking guidance on whether ITR 4 is appropriate, if presumptive taxation under section 44AD can be applied with a 6% profit margin, and how to identify the correct business or professional code. The advice suggests that ITR 4 is a viable option, potentially allowing for separate declarations under sections 44AD and 44ADA, and confirms that a TDS refund is possible if total income is below ₹7 lakhs and no special rate income is declared.

You can file ITR 4, u/s. 44AD & sec. 44ADA separately. Yes, You can get back refund of the tax deducted, provided aggregate income below 7 lakhs, and no income under special rate.
