22 June 2009 Dear Mr. Dhaval,

you have to show both income and file your tax return, you cant save TDS on professional income because your client paying you after necessary TDS deduction, you can show your business expenditure and calculate appropriate profit/loss and in case if you arrive at law tax liablity that your deducted TDS you can claim for the refund.

22 June 2009 hello sir
thanks for the reply
Does it mean that Income Tax department is not concerned with the legal aspect of salary and professional income? Can a salaried personnel do freelancing work and whether he has to declare to his employer that he is doing other freelance work on holidays.
can u throw some light on this.

regards
Dhaval.

obviously you can do it.. its no where mentioned that if u hv income from one source you cant earn income from other source, income tax department in not concern at all by your source of income provided you are declaring all your income properly.

23 June 2009 earn income from any legal source and reflect the same in your return. Thats the only motive. Nobody can restrict you from earning any other way if u r salaried.
