Hello Amlan,

I have been following your videos on YouTube and highly inspired by your service. But I have a case below for which I did not get complete answers from your videos. I also get conflicting views from CAs on this. Hence I request your expert opinion on the case and queries below. I believe clarification on this case would help many others too. Appreciate your time and willingness to respond.

CASE :
I am filing ITR4 for FY15-16 as I have some business/professional income this year in addition to salary (from superannuation fund), CG and other income. While I am comfortable with all other heads, I have questions regarding income from business/profession. With the intention of starting an independent business & technical consultancy (working from home), started sole proprietorship with trade-name (say) XYZ Consulting (I actually applied for a trademark, registered for service tax, bought a domain and email id service, opened a Current bank account in Apr 2015 prior to start of business). But unfortunately didn’t see much success in this and I did not make any earning on this trade-name. Parallely, I did some freelancing work (consulting, business writing, etc.) through Upwork freelancing platform with clients abroad and earned approx Rs.2.5 Lacs (after Upwork fee/charges – money accumulated in US $ in Upwork account and transferred to my savings account in INR). I created a separate savings account to credit the earnings through freelancing work done on my name.

My queries :
1. Is my work (independent consultant/freelancing/Sole Proprietory – Consulting services) liable for maintaining books of account? (Sec 44 AA). Is this a specified or non-specified business? ( I had no earnings on my proprietorship tradename, but only freelancing income.)

2. What should I mention in “Nature of business”
a) 0703 – consultancy services (& should I mention the tradename XYZ Consulting), or
0607 – Professionals Others (for freelancing work) OR should I mention both ?

3. Balance sheet and P&L : Can I fill as “No accounts case”? ( I have only 6 transactions for earnings through Upwork?)

4. Bank account declaration : should I show the current bank account details for XYZ Consulting – even though no transaction on this tradename in the financial year.

5. For P&L :
a) For gross income – should I consider the amount received in bank from Upwork (after the fees/charges) or should I consider the contract amount and deduct the Upwork fees as expenses?
b) Can I show the business expenses for the XYZ Consulting (service tax registration fees, trademark fees, domain, email id, etc.) even though no earnings on this tradename?

6. Under Schedule – Computation of Income from business or Profession:
a) Should I consider specified or non-specified business/profession?

7. Schedule FSI : (income from outside India)
Is this applicable for earnings through Upwork? My understanding is Not applicable as FSI is mainly to claim DTAA.

8. Schedule FA : (foreign assets and foreign income details)
Sections A to F – Not applicable. For section G - My understanding is not applicable as income from Upwork is considered in Business income. (The instruction also mention to fill section G only if income not considered earlier in business income).

Thanks.
