Simultaneous use of 44ada and 44ad?

Quick Summary
This discussion explores whether a doctor can simultaneously claim presumptive income under Section 44ADA for their profession and Section 44AD for Futures & Options (F&O) trading income. There's a debate on this, with some arguing it's permissible and others citing Section 44AD(6) which prohibits individuals covered under Section 44AA(1) (professionals) from opting for 44AD. The consensus leans towards not being able to use both sections concurrently, as being covered under 44ADA disqualifies one from 44AD.

So we can’t use both at the same time. We can show f&o income as business and professional income under 44ada. What are the books of account to maintained for f&o income as all these are online transactions.

F&O is allowed under Section 44AD even in scrutiny proceedings same was accepted.

Again we can't opt 44ADA in case of F&O as nowhere in law is given that one can't opt for both simultaneously.

If the business belongs to profession you can opt for 44ADA and for other business opt 44AD.

Still it's not good... Also can't accept..

F and O income can't be u/s 44ad.

It's my stands...

Sir just Google it and check some articles.

Also no section in law specified that we can't opt for 44AD in case of F&O

( No issues You can as Your view)

Sir go through case law of Niranjan Jata, Bhubaneswar vs Dcit,Salary Circle-3(1), Bhubaneswar on 31 December, 2019 decided by Appellate Tribunal.

correct. you cannot use 44AD once you are a person with income covered under 44AA(1).

ma'am. sorry you cannot use both sections. This is explicitly covered under the provisions of 44AD(6). any "person" covered under 44AA(1) is barred from 44AD. the exclusion is based on the person not the nature of income.
