Hi balaji... As such, for the time being, i dont have any source or notes for the same..
But i think 44AD is allowed purely for CIVIL CONSTRUCTION or LABOUR PROVIDED FOR THE SAME....
And painting and interior decoration does not form part of the same.. But still, i'm not sure, let others reply too...
And buddy, u urself got a quantum of knowledge?? What u think about this??

this shall be covered under sec 44AD because TDS had being deducted on the same ......if no TDS was deducted on same then it shall be covered u/s 44AF....i.e AS PER THE GROSS RECEIPTS GIVEN IN TDS CERTIFICATE.....

As per Section 44AD upto A.Y. 2010-11 civil construction will include the construction or repair of buildings, dams, bridges or other structure, or of roads or canals. It will also include the execution of any other works contract. It will, thus, include work related to electrical fittings, plumbing job, landscaping work, etc.
So in this case paining and interior decoration is a kind of work which is related to construction thats the reason it is considered under Section 44AD
It was a very good question and thanks to Mr. Balaji that he made me to read this section more carefully.
