Can a PVT LMT company director get paid professional fee by the company?

I'm a director and majority share holder of a private limited company that provides software services.
I've been the main engineer behind all services provided by the company and taking income in the salary head for last 4 years.
I came to know that I can also claim 44ADA if I take professional fee instead of salary from my company which will reduce my tax burden and compliance significantly.
Is that correct or some rule actually prevents me to do so?

Quick Summary
This discussion explores whether a director and majority shareholder of a private limited company can receive professional fees from the company, rather than just a salary. The aim is to understand if this arrangement allows for tax benefits under Section 44ADA, potentially reducing the overall tax burden and compliance requirements. The consensus suggests it is possible, provided there's a proper assignment or agreement in place for the professional services rendered.

Yes , but depending upon the assignment or agreement he received.
