Okay what if For AY 2016-17 [T/O 36lakh]. audit was not done But Complete ITR was filed filing balance sheet and P&L in short Not filed under section 44AD. So Audit will be applicable for AY 2022-23. Your views are welcome sir

My dear, the answer is based on your acceptance of applicability of sec. 44AD in AY 2017-18, from where you started auditing u/s. 44AB(e) of the act. There is no relevance to AY 2016-17 now.
