You should be one of the specified professionals u/s 44AA to opt for presumptive income tax. However, if you are one of such qualifying professionals, the income from google adsense can be included as part of your professional income by way of reduction in the cost of your advertisement. If there is no cost or the income is more than the cost, still it is in the form of other operating income, which should also be included in your income from profession and opt for presumptive income tax u/s 44ADA.
