This discussion clarifies whether to file ITR-1 or ITR-4 based on your income sources. If your boutique business is closed and tuition income was declared separately (not as business income), you can likely file ITR-1. Opting out of presumptive taxation (44AD) when your business ceases should not cause issues with the IT department, but ensure tuition income was correctly declared in previous returns.
I have filed my ITR-1 FY 2019-20 income from Salary+ Tuition income and FY 2020-21 filed ITR-4 income from Business boutique+ in other tution income + FD interest. but in FY 2021-22 i don't have income from boutique only income from tuition income+ fd interest and minor income from maintained books of account So please suggest can i go for ITR-1 or its mendatary to me file ITR-4. If i opted out of 44AD Can i face any problem from IT department Please advise

If ITR 1 is filed, there may be query if the income from tuition was also added to business income in ITR 4 in preceding year. If tuition income was declared under IFOS, you can go ahead with ITR 1.
