"iTunes and App Store" missing from iPad3 iOS9.3 Settings

My iOS 8.4 iPad3 crashed, so I installed iOS9.3 and restored from my iTunes backup.

I got all that working, however "iTunes and App Store" is missing from the iPad Settings.

I know it's supposed to be shown just below "iCloud", but it's not listed at all.

I have the App Store icon, and i'm able to sign in/out from within the app, however i'm unable to set the Automatic Downloads option which is usually seen from within the settings.User uploaded file

Restrictions were turned off, however when I entered the restrictions settings, "iTunes Store" was the only one not turned on! So I enabled restrictions, turned it on, and magic! The "iTunes and App Store" item appeared in the Settings menu 😀

This was rather weird considering I already had access to App Store app with restrictions off. I never used restrictions before, and it was definitely in the settings before I installed iOS9.3 and restored from backup.
