Dear Anonymous,
As per section 44AD (5), if
1) Assessee, having turnover of business less than Rs. 60 Lakh, declares income less than 8% of turnover,
AND
2) having taxable income below exemption limit applicable to the assessee.
Then, tax audit is required.
Pl note that both the above conditions should be satisfied simultaneosly, in order to be liable to tax audit.

Dear Anonymous,
It is compulsory u/s 44AD to have audit done if the conditions mentioned by me earlier are fulfilled. There is no option with the assessee to be governed by normal provisions of the act disregarding sec 44AD.
