Hi respected members,

I need your suggestions to file correct ITR this year, here is my situation:

  • I am a salaried employee in a proprietorship firm who gets 4.8 L annual salary.
  • In my spare time, I work as a freelancer on fiverr (a platform where services are provided to third party buyers) and sell graphic design services on etsy and my own website. TDS paid/deducted for fiverr gigs is shown in AIS till May 23.
  • Along with this I earned meagre affiliate income from amazon. TDS paid/deducted shows in AIS
  • I invest in equity shares for investment in India and O/S India. I sold a scrip for LTCG less than 50k
  • I hold crypto assets (VDAs) but haven't sold any this year.

Now, I filed ITR-2 last year since I didn't had any pgbp last year but I am looking to file ITR-3 based on current scenario. Please give your insight and answer a few questions:

  1. What will be the business code in nature of business?
  2. Till what period am I supposed to report sales from business? (AFAIK we report salary/pgbp till 31st Mar 23 right?) 
  3. AIS shows details for sales till May 23, so shall I report till March only or take the figure in AIS?
  4. Do we actually report tds paid/deducted in ITR anywhere or it is just for our information. I mean how do we use the forms 26AS, AIS and TIS
