Business comes under 44AD t/o 35 lakh. actual profit comes 1.75 lakh i.e. 5%. .query is, 1. Whether audit required bcoz profit is below 8% ? 2. I think not required bcoz profit is below basic exemption limit i.e. 2 lakh, what u say ? 3. Whether requirement of books of a/c mandatory uner 44AA as t/o and profit exceed 10 lakh and 1.20 lakh ? 4. Whether this case comes under scrutiny if we declare above mentioned profit? I ALWAYS CONFUSING IN THIS TYPE OF SITUATION. THANKS IN ADVANCE.

AS per the provisions of section 44AD audit under section 44AA is necessary if twin conditions are satisfied that is profit declared below 8% and total income exceeding taxable limit which is not your case so going by the provisions no audit is required. Maintenance of books u/s 44AA on a turnover exceeding 10 lakh applies only to professionals and not business. In case of business turnover limit for audit is Rs. 1 crore.

In that case only option will be to state that the case is no accounts case u/s 44AD so no books are maintained but regarding expenses vouchers, bills etc wherever applicable may be preserved so that the same can be produced before the AO.
