Quick Summary
This discussion explores the correct Income Tax Return (ITR) form for an individual employed on a contract basis where TDS is deducted under Section 194J. The conversation suggests that ITR 4 might be suitable, especially if the income can be declared under Section 44ADA as presumptive income. However, it also raises questions about whether documentary evidence for expenses is still required even when opting for presumptive taxation.

ITR 4

Could you please tell as to where to fill the income receipts?

shall I show the receipts under salary head?

Itr 3 or 4 depends upon the source of income you get
did you get form 16 from your employer
can you elaborate more
He will get from 16A , as he is not employee , prepare P&L and Balance sheet , check out 26AS

1) Income will be form Business & profession ,  ( He is on contract no employer & employee relation )  

2) Total  amount  received  -  total  expense incurred for the purpose of  earning  this income 

    ( expense with documentary evidence )  personal expense not allowed as an expense 

3)  ITR3 / ITR4  check  out .   

receiving 60,000 pm and TDS is deducted u/s 194 J 

Will ITR 4  be the correct return ?

There is no other source of income, will it be shown under Section 44ADA in ITR 4?

If it shown u/s 44ADA in ITR 4, then 50% of receipts will be treated as income In that case, still there is a need to maintain the documentary evidence of expense?

Total annual income = 60,000*12=720000, in this case 360000 will be offered as income.

Is this the correct approach?

What  is your  profession ?. Are you filing  ITR for  F.Y 2019-20 ?. 

Itr 4 is ok  you can take 50% as pressumetive as per your proffession which  I don't
