Quick Summary
This discussion clarifies how an individual can declare income from both trading (like namkeen and biscuits) and commercial vehicle transportation. It explains that while trading income can be declared under the presumptive scheme of Section 44AD at 8% of gross receipts, transportation business income is generally not eligible for 44AD. Instead, transportation income should be declared under Section 44AE, with specific rates based on whether the vehicle is heavy or not. The thread also touches upon the eligibility for 44AE when using leased vehicles.

As per section 44AD, person doing transportation business is not eligible to declare business income under presumptive scheme.

So, you can only declare transportation business under sec, 44AE, but for business income you have to get it assessed under normal process.

Regarding business of trading:-

as per section 44 AD you can compute your income at the rate 8% of your gross receipts during the previous year.

Regarding business of trasnporation:-

as per section 44AE has two paranlance i. e. if  you have heavy vehicle then compute your income at Rs 1000 per tonnes for month or part of the month and if not heavy vehicle then seven thousand per month or part of the month

the meaning of per month or part of the month is that if you have initiated a single transaction it means you liable to pay tax as per given provisions in section.

Can a person having leased commercial vehicle on rental agreement also show income in 44ae ,.like is it Mandatory to own vehicle to show income ?
and is income in both sections simultaneously allowed?
