You will have to file ITR 3.
I have three months of salary income between April 2016 - June 2016 and then insurnace comission income and also equity short term gains. There have been a few high value transactions also from my account as I had withdrawn my PF. Hence, I would like to know which form is suitable for me to file the returns for AY2017-2018? Thanks,
After June what was your main source of income. If it was insurance commission only then you need to file ITR 3 otherwise ITR 2.
Will ITR 2 not be sufficient as it includes salary, professions' and capital gains as income from equity?
ITR 3 will be suitable for filing of Salary + Business + Capital Gains income
You can select 44ADA in case of your business income and show without maintenance of books of accounts and show profit of 50% of receipts.

For profession income you have to file ITR 3 as you have salary income also along with it.
If profession amount is not so material then you can file ITR 2 and show the Commission amount under head other sources.

Yes, you can file ITR-2 but you will not be able to avil the benefit of Section 44ADA and will have to prepare Books of Accounts.
If you want to show insurance commission income as other income you can fill ITR 2. If it is your profession then you must file ITR 3, claim expenses related to it.
Hi,
You can use for ITR-2, by choosing insurance commission income as "income from other sources".
ITR-3 can be used if you want to claim insurance commission as your business.

Loss from Equity Investments (Short term) is Rs. 53,632, short term gain from Mutual Funds was Rs. 5,175. Gratuity and PF proceeds were Rs. 7,30,064 salary income was Rs. 1,65,726, Interest income was Rs. 5,678 and Insurance commission was Rs. 26,049.90....can you now tell what form I should use? I do not have a P&L for Insurance...
All the items can be covered under ITR-2.
If you don't have P&L for insurance commission, you can show the same as Income from Other Sources.
Hi
Since you are not showing the commission income as a professional income, you can show it as other income. ITR 2 shall suffice your requirements.
Hope this clarifies.
Simply file ITR 2 and show the commission income under head Other sources and all other incomes in their respective heads.
This will work for sure.

Considering the quantum of insurance commission, you can treat it as other income and file ITR 2.
I don't foresee any challenge.
