Yes... You can opt sec 44AD.

***According to Section 44ADA of Income Tax Act, 1961, Presumptive Income at the rate 50% of the Gross receipts of a profession shall be deemed to be the Income from that Profession.

Profession has been defined as Any person carrying on legal, medical, engineering or architectural profession or the profession of accountancy or technical consultancy or interior decoration or authorised representative or film artist.

Since the Beauty Parlour does not fit anywhere in the above category, the Income from Beauty Parlour can be assessed based on Section 44AD of Income Tax Act, 1961, which states that when the Turnover of the Business is less than or equal to Rs. 2 Crores, the assessee can pay tax on Presumptive Income which shall be not less than 8% (or 6% for that part of Turnover received by A/c Payee Cheque or A/c Payee Bank Draft or Electronic Clearing System) of Turnover from such business.
Yes...I agreed to Mr RAJA P M SIR.
But,
As per the query and it's head of the query...
The Asseessee is performing as Make Up Artist then He can file u/s 44ada...

Otherwise if he doing it as Beauty Parlour business then he can avail presumptive taxation scheme sec 44AD.
Thanks guyz
