Brokerage/commission received from Motilal oswal

This queries relates to my friend. He is a business partner in motilal oswal financial securities ltd. And he received brokerage from motilal oswal and motilal oswal deducted their tds u/s 194h.

And he has income only from brokerage and total income from brokerage is less than 2.5 lacs (approx - 2.4 lacs). So please guide me which itr form need to be fill by my friend.
(In the previous year itr1 is filled because previously my friend had income from different sources like salary and brokerage. )

Quick Summary
This discussion addresses which Income Tax Return (ITR) form is suitable for an individual receiving brokerage income from Motilal Oswal, with TDS deducted under Section 194H. The choice between ITR-1/2 (for income from other sources) and ITR-3 (for business/profession income) depends on whether the brokerage is a one-time/casual receipt or a substantial, recurring annual income. Given the income is solely from brokerage and substantial, ITR-3 is generally advisable.

Selection on income tax return form ITR is decided by the following two factors -

How much is the share of income under a particular head, if there are more than one head of income and
How one want to treat that income.

In your case, if the income from brokerage is one time and/or casual in nature (some time it may be there and some time it may not be there) then it needs to be considered as income from other sources and ITR1/2 shall be most suitable.

However, if the income from brokerage is going to be substantial, every year and year after year, then such income shall fall under income from business and Profession and ITR3 shall be suitable.

In you case, ITR 3 is advisable, as reason mentioned above
