If you opt for 44ad again provided the turnover is within the threshold limit and if the profit is less than the minimum limit of 6/8%, then tax audit would be applicable.
If you don't opt for 44ad and if the turnover is up to ₹10cr and cash transactions are <=5%, tax audit not applicable.

Here you have not opted out. Because the turnover was more than the prescribed limit, you were not eligible for it.
