23 July 2015 how will you have criterion for discretionary...but there are logics applied...for eg: it could be a case of excessive refunds in comparison to overall averages...then there could be cases of information based on AIR etc, DTAA cases etc etc

23 July 2015 Is filing return u/s 44AD is also a criteria? I dont think so.

It is always possible on other grounds but not just because section 44AD is applied.

23 July 2015 Scrutiny is possible for any return, i think query was whether scrutiny is possible just because return was filed u/s 44AD.

Going by the wording of question your view point is correct.
