28 September 2013 Criterion of 8% is under presumptive basis. If assessee opts for presumptive basis and shows profit below 8% then tax audit is required else not. If assessee files return under normal provision then tax audit is not mandatory. Further how much profit to be shown to avoid notice is not answerable. Only profit % is not a criterion for notice. Show true facts so that consequences need not to be faced when notice comes.
