My client had been opting 44AD from 17-18 financial year for his income tax filing. Can he opt out from 44AD scheme for his 22-23 FY income tax filing? Does this five year rule of consecutive 44AD filing includes the first year of 44AD filing ie 17-18 FY? Or this five year consecutive 44AD filing range from 18-19 FY to 22-23 FY? Experts please advice.
