12 August 2016 Dear Sir, ITR 4S is applicable only for business that is what my understanding. However in the case of my 1st client who is a freelance professional conducting teaching and life coaching classes which is not a business; in that case, can he use ITR 4S as mentioned by you above?

12 August 2016 Many thanks Sir. Please correct if I am wrong on my understanding on the matter.
A person who is engaged in any profession as prescribed under section 44AA(1) cannot adopt the presumptive taxation scheme of section 44AD. Since my client is not covered under Section 44AA (1), he can go for presumptive taxation option and declare 8% or more of his gross receipts as his presumptive income and use ITR 4S for the AY 16-17.

Also my understanding is that Sec 44ADA is applicable from 1st April 2017 ( AY 17-18) and in that case he can opt for presumptive taxation scheme under section 44ADA and declare 50% of gross receipts of profession as his presumptive income if his total gross receipts of profession do not exceed fifty lakh rupees.
