25 January 2021 Can para medical professionals like nurses, audiologists etc go in for the presumptive taxation scheme under Section 44 ADA?
Are they also covered in the definition of medical professionals (section 44AA)?

26 January 2021 I don't think so that nurses and audiologist can be considered as professionals.

13 February 2021 You have to declare income under business & profession. Declare income u/s 44ADA without maintaning books of accounts.
