Even if a person is not required to maintain books of accounts or carry out tax audit under IT Act, he/she is required to maintain some minimum details in order to enable him/her to carry on business and to file IT Return, for e.g., details of sales, purchases, debtors, creditors, cash and bank etc.

Hence, you should ask the client to maintain this minimum detail in order to enable you to file IT Return.
