16 June 2024 Dear Sir,

My query is as follows:
Mr A is a salaried person who helps others invest in Mutual funds through the Prudent platform. He received a monthly commission totaling to Rs. 185842/-pa. He doesn't maintain any books of accounts for this.
1) How can we report this income in his ITR? Can we show under commission/agency business without books of accounts? He incurs traveling expenses.
2) which business code is to be selected?

Kindly guide.
Regards,
Suraj
