TRPs & GST Practitioners are specified professionals under the "Authorized Representative" notification; pure non-CA data entry providers are usually treated as businesses.
They do not fall under "Technical Consultancy" (which is reserved for engineering/tech).
True specified professionals can opt for Section 44ADA; others must use Section 44AD.
Maintaining books of accounts is not compulsory for everyone; it is only mandatory if professional gross receipts exceed ₹1,50,000 in all three preceding years.
