Quick Summary
This discussion addresses how to report income from insurance commissions alongside option trading, particularly when Section 44AD might not apply to all income streams. Experts confirm that it's possible to declare insurance commission under 'profession' or 'other sources' while showing option trading under Section 44AD, declaring 8% or 6% of turnover as profit. This approach aims to manage tax reporting and potentially avoid audits related to option trading losses.

Yes. It can be done . Show the commission under profession and options under business and declare 8/6% of profit on turnover
Yes you can do so. Show option trading under 44AD and commission in other business.

Alternatively you declare insurance commission under other sources if not of substantial amount
The commission is around 6 lacs and every year we bring down the commision to 38% of the original amount,can expenses be claimed under other sources?

Yes you can do so..........

Thank you Reddy sir amd Rashmi Ma'am
