Hi sowmay,

Bizness is separatet from owner and hence as individual biz they wont cross one crore limlit individualy Therefore tax audit not aplicable.

But one business is showing less than 3% of gross profit for that biz aidit as required and ca sign is required on balancesheet. Further you can file itr4s for the other biz which has more than 8%.

if the profit for a bisines is less than 8% then it should undergo compulsory audit.if the 2 business of the assesee are of same nature & its status is proprietorship then the limit 1Cr may applicable.

A consolidated P/l n Balance Sheet is to be created by the Auditor and the profit of the both business will be clubbed...

And Tax is to be paid as per section 44ab...

If profit is less than 8% then audit requires for such business as per sec.44ad So you require to audit for one business only(business which profit is 3%) and you can opt 44ad for another business..

If total profit of both the business is more than 8% and totl turnover of both the business is lower than one crore than there is no need of audit and assessee can file return under sec 44ad of income tax act

As per sec.143(1) intimation can be issued up to 1 year from the end of f.y. in which you fil the return. So ur return should be proseds before 31-3-2015 But normally refund issued within 8-12 mnths.
