21 July 2025 Here’s how you can handle your brokerage income in ITR-4S under presumptive taxation (Section 44AD):

1. Is brokerage income considered presumptive income?
Brokerage and commission income is generally business income.

Section 44AD applies to most businesses except professionals and goods carriage business, so yes, you can declare brokerage income under Section 44AD presumptive scheme.

2. Which ITR form to use?
Use ITR-4S (Sugam) if you opt for presumptive taxation under Section 44AD.

3. Where to mention brokerage income in ITR-4S?
In ITR-4S, you need to enter your gross receipts or turnover (which will be your brokerage income) under the “Part B – Income Details” section.

You declare 8% of this gross receipt as taxable income under presumptive income.

4. Can you claim refund of TDS?
Yes, if TDS deducted on brokerage income is more than your actual tax liability (which could be zero if income is below taxable limit), you can claim a refund by filing the return.

Summary for you:
File ITR-4S and mention your gross brokerage income as turnover.

Declare 8% of the brokerage income as taxable income (presumptive).

You can claim refund of excess TDS by filing the return even if income is below taxable limit.
