Between April 2022 and mid-August 2022, I worked as a freelancer for a company. From mid-August 2022 onwards, I moved to a permanent employee position within the same company. I have received Form 16 for the period of August 2022 to March 31st, 2023, and Form 16a for the period of April 2022 to mid-August 2022.
Now, I am unsure if I need to file separate income tax returns (ITR 1 for the permanent job and ITR 3 for freelance income) or if I can file ITR 1 only and include the freelance income under the "Income other than salary" head.
