Renewal commission of a deseased agent

ITR 364 views 1 replies

This is related to my earlier query posted on 16th March, 2014. Some one was kind enough to answer my query pertaining to the ITR to be used while e filing the returns of a female client whose only income (which she gets every month) is the renewal commission given for the businesses that her late husband had done as an LIC agent. I was advised to use ITR 1 and to consider her present income under the catagory of 'other income'...

However in her 26AS form, her income is being catagorised u/s 194D - INSURANCE COMMISSION.

So, of the two, ITR 1 and ITR 4, which one would be apt in this case?

I would be grateful if some one can throw more light on this issue...

With regards

Dear Sir

If a person is an insurance agent receive such amount in a profession then the amount should come under ITR4 (as Business and profession. In P&L account showing books not maintained and put just gross receipt there)

But say, if amount is earned for one time then you can put it in ITR 1 or 2.

The concept behind is to pay taxes or claim refund. So choose wisely.
