Dear Ravi,
Answer to your 1st Question is , YES your client falls under Section 44AD.
Answer to your 2nd Question is as under:-
If the Profit is more than 8% then , he does not require to get his accounts audited and pay tax on gross turnover * 8% = income.
If the profit is less than 8% of turnover (gross) , then your client needs to get his accounts audited u/s 44AB r.w.s. 44AD.
I hope your question is answered.
