12 July 2023 I am filling ITR3 and claiming deduction under 44 ADA. How do I fill donations made u/s 35(1)(iii)? Is it correct to fill Schedule RA, Schedule ESR (# iv) and Part A-P&L (# 43) or I am not eligible for this deduction since I have opted for 44ADA? I do not see the deduction in the final computation (TI or TTI) if I only fill RA or ESR.

13 July 2023 Found the answer (Ref https://cleartax.in/s/donation-under-section-80g-and-80gga):
Section 80GGA allows deductions for donations made towards scientific research or rural development. This deduction is allowed to all assessees except those who have an income (or loss) from a business and/or a profession.
