About Doctor Tax Filing
A clear overview, in simple terms — what it is, why it matters, and how we handle it.
Doctors in private practice can use presumptive taxation under Section 44ADA, declaring 50% of receipts as profit, if receipts are up to ₹75 lakh with cash within 5% (₹50 lakh otherwise). Hospitals deduct 10% TDS on consultation fees, which shows in Form 26AS. Doctors with both salary and practice file ITR-3 (or ITR-4 under presumptive taxation, within its limits).
A doctor's income often comes from several hospitals, a clinic, online consultations and salary. We reconcile every source with 26AS, compare presumptive and regular computation, claim genuine expenses where books are kept, and plan advance tax.
| Presumptive | 44ADA: 50% of receipts; up to ₹75 lakh with cash ≤ 5% |
|---|---|
| TDS on fees | 10% by hospitals under Section 194J |
| Forms | ITR-3, or ITR-4 under presumptive taxation |
| Tax audit | Above ₹50 lakh receipts outside the presumptive scheme |
