20 September 2017 I want to ask if there is no salary income for an individual but only income from other sources, then could i file ITR-1 for the same. Total income is within 50 lakhs but different sources like commission & brokerage because i have seen that it could be filed in cleartax website but people are telling me to file itr-2 because itr-1 is only for salaried person. so i want to ask if a person with no salary income can file itr-1 for income from other sources?

In your case Commission and brokerage income is not an income from other sources but it is a business income hence ITR 3 has to be filed.
