Mr. girish please refer to section 44AA(2)(iv)

where the provisions of sub-section [4] of section 44AD are applicable in his case and his income exceeds the maximum amount which is not chargeable to income-tax in any previous year,

as per the above , only persons covered under 44ad(4) are required to maintain books if their total income exceeds 250000
