10 August 2024 If you have agricultural income exceeding ₹5,000 and wish to claim the presumptive taxation scheme under Section 44AD of the Income Tax Act (which is available for small businesses), you need to use ITR-3 since ITR-4 is not available for those with significant agricultural income.

Here’s a step-by-step guide on how to claim the presumptive scheme under Section 44AD in ITR-3 using the Java utility:

### **Step-by-Step Process to Claim Presumptive Scheme under Section 44AD in ITR-3**

1. **Download and Install the ITR-3 Utility:**
- Download the latest version of the ITR-3 Java utility from the [Income Tax India e-Filing portal](https://www.incometax.gov.in/iec/foportal/).

2. **Open the ITR-3 Utility:**
- Launch the downloaded Java utility.

3. **Fill in Personal Details:**
- Enter your personal details including PAN, name, address, and other necessary information on the ‘General Information’ page.

6. **Enter Business Details:**
- Fill in the required details about your business. This includes information on your business and the nature of the business.

7. **Presumptive Taxation Details:**
- Enter the gross receipts of your business.
- The presumptive income will be calculated at 8% of the gross receipts (or 6% for digital payments).
- The calculated presumptive income will be automatically reflected in the 'Income from Business or Profession' section.

8. **Enter Agricultural Income:**
- Go to the 'Agricultural Income' tab and input your agricultural income here.
- Note that the agricultural income is not taxed but needs to be declared for calculating the tax slab rate.

9. **Complete Other Sections:**
- Fill in details of other incomes, if any.
- Fill in deductions under Chapter VI-A, such as 80C, 80D, etc.
- Complete the 'Tax Computation' section to calculate your total tax liability.

10. **Verify and Validate:**
- Check all the details you have entered to ensure accuracy.
- Validate the form to check for errors.

11. **Generate XML File:**
- After completing all the details, generate the XML file from the Java utility.

12. **Upload the XML File:**
- Log in to the [Income Tax e-Filing portal](https://www.incometax.gov.in/iec/foportal/).
- Go to 'e-File' and select 'Income Tax Return'.
- Upload the generated XML file.

13. **Submit the Return:**
- Follow the prompts to complete the submission of your return.

### **Additional Tips**

- **Documentation:** Ensure you have all necessary documentation and records related to your business income and agricultural income.
- **Presumptive Scheme Limits:** Ensure that you meet the criteria for the presumptive scheme under Section 44AD, such as having gross receipts not exceeding ₹2 crore.
- **Reconciliation:** Reconcile your business income and ensure it is accurately reflected in the return.
- **Consultation:** If you have any doubts, consider consulting a tax professional for guidance.

By following these steps, you should be able to correctly claim the presumptive taxation scheme under Section 44AD while using ITR-3.
