AS per the provisions of sec 44AB when the turnover in business exceeds 40 lakhs tax audit attracts....
As far as i see, the business is attracted to the provisions of sec 44AB and not the assesse. Based on this view the following are my querries....
Is the said assesse is liable to get his books of accounts audited under 44AB, as he is having 2 separate business which are not related to one another and individually turnover of each business is less than 40 lakhs?
Can the assesse go for the provisions of section 44AF for retail business, and show income without 44AB audit for the manufacturing business?
Please mention sitations if any....

The provisions of sec.44AF for the retail business i.e. paying tax on presumptive income can be used only in case the turnover of the retail business has not exceeded Rs.40lacs. Since the turnover of the retail business has not exceeded the prescribed limit, presumptive income approach can be used.
Interesting question. Answers to ur question are available in guidance note on tax audit by ICAI.
Firstly the t/o specified u/s 44AB is assessee wise and not business-wise.
