Quick Summary

This discussion clarifies tax audit requirements when a business opts out of Section 44AD. If your turnover exceeds the 3 crore limit for 44AD, you can't use that scheme. However, tax audit under Section 44AB(a) is only compulsory if digital transactions are less than 95% of your total turnover.
