14 April 2014 i have some confusion regarding following matter because as I have discussed the matter with different people , their views are different -
Some people say ( including practicing c.a and advocates) that if I am maintaining proper books of account and my turnover is less that audit limit, I do not need audit even if my net profit is less than 8%, Is it right?

14 April 2014 This is partly correct that you need not to audit

but u/s 44AD if you want to claim net profit below than 8% you need to maintain proper books of account and get your accounts audited.
