I want to file income tax for AY 2017-18 but I am not sure which ITR is applicable for me. I am a dance tutor. I don't run profession dance classes. I just go to individual's home to teach them dance. Sometimes I also perform in events & shows.
For events & show, I get the money through cheque after TDS (us/ 194J) but for private tutions I collect the money by cash.
For AY 2017-18, my total income is Rs 2,30,000. Out of total amount, I have received 50,000 in my account after TDS and remaining 1,80,000 I have collected through cash.
Should I file ITR-1 or ITR-4? If I go for ITR-1 and show my income as "Income from other sources" then it forces me to fild TDS2 details. I don't have TDS2 information for the amount 1,80,000. I am not sure if I can go for ITR-4 since I am not running any buisness and maintaining any book.

You should fill itr-4. even if you don't run professional classes you are using your technical skill to earn income. Profession is defined as a vacation, or a job requiring something thought, skill and special knowledge.
