I used to file ITR 4S for my relative since previous in 4S there was no separate column to declare turnover from the profession, I used to declare consolidated turnover in a single column which was designated as turnover u/s 44AD and I used to declare 25 % profit on turnover
Now previous year, also I followed the same procedure, after which AO initially sent an email to me which stated that there is a disparency in my ITR as in 26AS TDS is deducted for professional fees but I have not declared any professional fees in ITR, after which I closely studied ITR 4 of 17-18 and realized that in the ITR form 4 17-18 there is a special column for Presumptive income under 44ADA (Profession) in which I had not filled in anything
Now I have got email notice u/s 143 1 a and I have been asked in e proceedings to submit my reply to the proposed addition of income by AO since as per 26AS 86000 were my Gross receipts from profession which I didn't mention in the column Also, it is expected that i should revise my return
my question is should I reduce receipts from Trading and add it in professional receipts which is actually more than 86000 (around 600000 lakhs) so what should I do
option 1 add 86000 as professional receipts, keep trading gross receipts unchanged at 24 lakhs
option 2
add 600000 as professional receipts, change trading gross receipts to 19 lakhs
option 3

you need to make written submissions to the AO explaining the mistake made and prove that the turnover mentioned in the ITR4S included professional returns. Thereafter, show the computation of turnover, separate professional fees and then compute separate tax liability and if there is any balance tax liability, pay it.
