As per section 44AB, following persons are compulsorily required to get their accounts audited :

• A person carrying on business, if his total sales, turnover or gross receipts (as the case may be) in business for the year exceed or exceeds Rs. 1 crore. This provision is not applicable to the person, who opts for presumptive taxation scheme under section 44AD and his total sales or turnover doesnot excceeds Rs. 2 crores.

• A person carrying on profession, if his gross receipts in profession for the year exceed Rs. 50 lakhs.

• A person who is eligible to opt for the presumptive taxation scheme of section 44AD (*) but claims the profits or gains for such business to be lower than the profits and gains computed as per the presumptive taxation scheme of section 44AD and his income exceeds the amount which is not chargeable to tax.

• If an eligible assessee opts out of the presumptive taxation scheme, after specified period, he cannot choose to revert back to the presumptive taxation scheme for a period of five assessment years thereafter.
