Computation of Business Income is covered under Part D of Chapter IV. Section 44AD has its limitation to this extent only. Section 44AD overrides provisions contained in section 28 to Section 43C only.
Set off provisions are covered by chapter VI and Section 44AD does not have any overriding impact on Section 70 to 80. Hence tax audit is not required in such case.
