The following are not eligible for 44AD:
1. income in the nature of commission or brokerage
2. agency business.
3. Legal, medical, engineering or architectural profession
4. profession of accountancy or technical consultancy or interior decoration.
(Reference: S. 44AD(6) & S. 44AA(1))
So, if the person is rendering services which doesn't fall in above catogory, then yes they may opt for presumptive taxation. However, keep in mind that once 44AD is opted, the same needs to be applied for next 5 consequitve years. If opted out of 44AD during these 5 years, the benefit of 44AD cant be availed for the next 5yrs from yr in which opted out. (Ref. S. 44AD(4))
