Tds deducted under 194j - should fill itr-1 or itr4s

I am a contract employee and having income under taxable limit. Employer provided me Form 16A, showing TDS under 194J.
So now after creating account on IncomeTaxEfile website as 'Individual', there are only two Form showing under dropdown menu, that is - ITR 1 and ITR4S, so which form should I fill?

Please Note that there is no Option for ITR-4 form in the Drop down menu after clicking on 'Quick e-File ITR'
I have no other income source.
Please help me in this regard.

You are required to download ITR 4 utility from the site. After filing it completely, prepare XML file, then upload.

ITR4S should do the job, download the java utilty

As per my opinion if your employer has deducted TDS u/s 194J, you can treat the same as Income From Other Sources and file ITR 1.

File ITR 1 :: If empolyer will not deduct TDS next time u/s 194J, and he will deduct the same u/s 192

File ITR 4S :: If he will continue to deduct TDS u/s 194J because you will have to show it as professional fees.

Dear Ajay,there is two diffrent head and deduction is done on nature of relationship and services

if you are contractual service provide (accounting services) then tds should be deducted u/s 194j and 

if there are employee and employer relationship exist,tds will be deducted u/s 192b

SO FILE 

ITR 4S :: income from other source and claimed tds receivable.
