If you receive profit share from a firm investing in the stock market on your behalf, it's generally treated as business income, especially if you don't hold the shares directly. If the agreement specifies it purely as interest, it might be declared under 'Income from Other Sources'. Clarify the nature of your agreement with the firm to ensure correct tax reporting.
