12 September 2014 You may declare your income u/s 44AD in which case you have to declare at least 8% of your gross receipts as your net profit chargeable to tax. You can not claim any expenditure as all expenditure will be deemed to have been allowed out of this 8%. You will not be required to maintain books of account but it is advisable to maintain a record of fee receipts so as to calculate gross receipts.
