Sir, I want to ask you following question.
1.Whether wholesale traders whose turnover is below 60 lakhs.Is eligible for enjoying benefits of Section 44AD.
2.Whether a assessee can Claimed deduction under section 80C(PPF,LIC,ELSS-Mutual Fund)who is enjoying benefits of Section 44AD.
3.Whether a assessee can Claim Business expenses like interest,rent,depreciation after arriving on 8 percent profit on turnover who is enjoying benefits of Section 44AD.
Deductions under Chapter VIA will be allowed, however as far as the Above expenditures are concerned, the following may be noted.
In computing Taxable Business Income Under Sec 44AD, Expenditures under Sec 30 to 38 are deemed to be allowed, therefore you cannot claim the same from the 8% Amount arrived as Business Income under Sec 44AD.
Thank you,
