1. Yes , he can file his return in ITR 4S by showing his income U/s 44AF. Department may argue about the turnover, so records must be maintained so as to prove the turnover, in case asked.

2. By the virtue of sub section 6 clause (ii) of Section 44AD- persons earning income in the nature of commission or brokerage are not eligible to show their income on presumptive basis. Estate Agents and Insurance Agents, thus can not opt for Section 44AD. .
