In my opinion you can't
Reason:-
1. Section 44AD is applicable to business like buying goods & selling it out. So therefore in such business margin are less so that they can take advatage of presumptive 8% income but in your case you are providing services since therefore it is not applicable in your case
2. Section 44ADA is applicable to professional's @ 50%
1) Legal
2) Medical
3) Engineering or architectural
4) Accountancy
5) Technical consultancy
6) Interior decoration
7) Any other profession as notified by CBDT
So therefore this section 44ADA is not appliable since you are in providing service of repairing, maintenance of Boiler
So in my opinion you are require to maintain books as metioned in section section 44AA of the Act. and your are taxable as per slab rate.

Section 44AD is for business. Section 44ADA serves for professionals providing services. In it, profits are assumed to be 50% and it is applicable in cases where turnover is less than Rs.50 lakhs.
