This discussion addresses whether commission earned from selling tractors, where Tax Deducted at Source (TDS) is applied under Section 194H, can be filed under the presumptive taxation scheme (Section 44AD). The client's annual turnover is approximately £5,50,000. It was clarified that commission income earners are not eligible for Section 44AD. The query also touched upon the necessity of maintaining books of accounts, advising to check the applicability of Section 44AA.
One of my client earns Commission income on Sale of Tractors. His TDS gets deducted U/s. 194H on this income. Can his return be filed under Presumptive Taxation scheme as his volume of business is not much. His Total Turnover is around Rs. 5,50,000/- p.a.
