As per section 44AA(2) if the annual income from business do not exceed Rs.1,20,000/- or the gross receipts do not exceed Rs.10,00,000/- in any one of the three years preceding this year no need to maintain books of accounts thereby balance sheet and profit and loss accounts are not mandatory. If the above condition is satisfied go ahead with return filing without b/s and p & l a/cs. Please avail ad hoc deduction for expenses as per CBDT Circular 648 dated 30/03/1993 and arrive the taxable income for return filing purpose.
