Quick Summary
This discussion clarifies whether an individual can operate two different businesses under separate tax schemes. The consensus is yes, you can opt for presumptive taxation for one business while applying normal tax provisions to the other. This is permissible as long as you adhere to the specific rules governing the presumptive taxation scheme for the chosen business.

Yes, you can, for one business you can go under presumptive income & for another normal scheme, Provided you follow provisions of presumptive rules

Yes, but turnover is aggregated:

• Sec 44AD applies to the "eligible business" of an eligible assessee. If an individual has two eligible businesses, he can offer presumptive income on both, but the turnover limit (Rs 2 crore / Rs 3 crore) applies to the aggregate turnover of all businesses.

• Partial use: tribunals have allowed 44AD for one business and regular books for another. But the department often insists on consistency. Keep separate books for the business not under 44AD.

• If one business is a specified profession (44ADA), the other can be under 44AD. ITR-4 supports both.

• Commission, brokerage and agency businesses are excluded from 44AD.
