Even if the busines is of letting out of house properties on rent, the income would still be chargeable under the head Income from house Property.

Since Rental income is arising from the House Property only,  and a special head of Income has been prescribed for the HP Income, you have to show it under the head IFHP.

.

 

Income from Commercial Property is to be shown under head Income from House Property only and not under any other head of Income

No, you can not show the income from rent,  under the Head of Business Income.
