1. Yes it is a normal business. 2. Do not opt for Section 44AD. Show loss. 3. As per sub-section 5 of Section 44AD, audit is required if the assessee shows income less than 8% AND his income exceeds the exemption limit. 4. If the total income does not exceed the exemption limit, then audit is not required.

As I said audit is compulsory if the assessee shows income less than 8% AND the income of the assessee EXCEEDS the exemption limit.
Since there is a loss, the income does not exceed the exemption limit and audit is not required (PROVIDED THE ASSESSEE DOES NOT HAVE ANY OTHER INCOME OR THE OTHER INCOME AFTER SETTING OFF LOSS DOES NOT EXCEED THE EXEMPTION LIMIT).
