Your friend, as a general insurance agent receiving commission income, may need to file Income Tax Return (ITR) Form ITR-3. He should report his commission income as business income and provide details of his business activities. Whether he needs to show 50% net profit of gross receipts depends on the eligibility and choice of the presumptive taxation scheme under Section 44AD.
