Not liable to maintain the books of accounts. Threshold is 1.50 lacs.
05 August 2019
If the consultancy fee is arising out of exercising legal profession, no need to
maintain books of accounts since gross receipts if less then 50 lakhs and income
offered is not less than 50 % of gross receipts.
If the income offered is more than Rs.2,50,000/- and that income is less than
50% of the gross receipts, maintenance of books of accounts and other
documents is mandatory.
Secondly, if gross receipts is more than Rs. 50 lakhs, books of accounts is a
mandatory requirement.
