Hi Amlan, Yes, I'm working as technical consultant (freelancer). I have got another question on Presumptive Taxation eligibility when I found the below one in FAQs.

FAQ: Who cannot opt for the Presumption Taxation Scheme?
Answer: If the taxpayer has claimed deduction under section 10, 10A, 10B, Section 10BA, or Section 80HH to 80RRB in the relevant year then this scheme cannot be opted by him.

If I'm not wrong, I'm getting the HRA, Conveyance deductions and showing the Gratuity and PF exemptions under Section 10. Am I still eligible to opt Presumptive Taxation? Please confirm. Thank you!

My previous questions and your answers for your quick reference:
==================================================
I have watched few of your videos and look great. I understand I may have to file ITR 4 for my scenario, where I had quit job and started freelancing during the last FY:
- First 4 months - Salary. I have also Received Gratuity and Withdrawn PF during the FY.
- Rest 8 months - Earned very less income (less than 50K)

Detailed answer as follows,

1. Should I submit ITR 4 or ITR 1 with freelance income as other income?
ITR 4 is preferable ...hope the freelancing is for technical consultancy

2. Can I opt for Presumptive Taxation 44ADA as I'm planning to continue my career as Freelancer?
- Yes , you can but only till your gross receipts from such eligible profession is below 50 lakhs

3. Can I show exempted gratuity and PF under exemptions in ITR 4?
- Yes, you can

4. Are the following allowance deductions applicable for the first 4 months as an employee?
a. Conveyance
b. House Rent
c. Professional Tax
- Yes, for salary , you can surely benefit of the exemptions provided they were considered by the employer especially conveyance and professional tax and rent in terms of eligible HRA exemption if you were in receipt of HRA

5. Are the 80C, 80D and 80TTA deductions allowed for me?
- Yes - These are deduction sections for individuals...so, the income head of the individual doesn't qualify /disqualify the deductions under section 80

6. Do I need to fill any financial particulars as I haven't invested much on freelancing except that I'm using my personal laptop, which was bought long time back? However, I'm looking at presumptive taxation on freelancing.

- Yes, you need to fill the financial particulars compulsorily but there is nothing much to it...you will only fill it w.r.t profession and not mix it with your personal expenses not relating to profession ...check my tutorial for it
