Taxation for the Modern Economy
If you are a freelance developer, designer, or consultant earning over ₹2.5 Lakhs a year, filing your ITR (Income Tax Return) is non-negotiable. It is your ultimate proof of income for loan applications and visa processes.
The Presumptive Taxation (Section 44ADA)
This is the most powerful tool for freelancers. It allows you to "presume" that 50% of your gross income is your expense, meaning you only pay tax on the remaining 50%! This dramatically reduces your tax outgo without needing detailed accounts.
