During the course of scurtiny assessment, the assessing officer has treated the Brokerage received from Mutual Funds as income from Profession. The assessee has claimed it to be as income from business, gross turnover far less than 40 lacs, but more than 10 lacs in 3 years.. He also invoked and applied the provisions of section 44AB and 40(a)(ia).
Can someone provide me some case laws/circulars/instructions, wherein this nature of income has been accepted as INCOME FROM BUSINESS.
