Advertising comes under 'business' and not under 'profession'. Refer ICAI publication "Issues on Tax Audit",2000 edition,page 24. In view of that, the assessee has not crossed the threshold limit. Hence 44AB and chapter XVIII-B of the Income tax Act,1961 do not apply meaning thereby tax audit and tax deduction are not required.
