Which ITR form should I file as a Marketing freelancer?

I am a social media marketing Freelancer with foreign income in $. The INR amount received in my account in FY22-23 is 9,90,000. My CA has filed ITR 3 with 50% of 9.9 Lacs as presumptive income under 44AD. I also have income from dividends around 2,000. I feel my CA has filed the wrong form.

a.) It should be ITR 4 right and not ITR 3 right?

b.) Is marketing covered in 44AD or 44ADA as I don't see it listed anywhere?

Quick Summary

A marketing freelancer with foreign income in USD and INR earnings of ₹9,90,000 is questioning their CA's decision to file ITR 3, believing ITR 4 might be more appropriate. They are particularly unsure if marketing services are covered under presumptive income schemes like 44AD or 44ADA, especially with additional dividend income. The response suggests ITR 3 is indeed the correct form for this scenario.
