Which ITR to be filed by govt. pleader for professional receipts received from govt.? ITR 3 or 4?


This query is : Resolved 

Quick Summary
A government pleader is seeking advice on which Income Tax Return (ITR) to file for professional receipts earned from representing the government. The core question is whether ITR 3 or ITR 4 is appropriate, and if presumptive taxation under Section 44ADA of the IT Act is an option. The advice suggests ITR 4 can be filed if there are no capital gains; otherwise, ITR 3 is recommended, confirming eligibility for Section 44ADA.
