13 June 2021 As per my understanding after reading on section 44AD.

Business with a turnover of less than 2 crore can avail benefits
of sec 44AD. (Excluding commission, agency and plying).

I trade in FNO my turnover is around 1.5 crore,

Can I Declare my profit @ 6% i.e., 9 lakhs and pay tax accordingly.
Whereas my actual profit is around 20 lakhs.

What to do in such a case. Please Advise.

Thank you.

14 June 2021 FNO Turnover calculation

Nifty MAY Bought Sold P/L : 25k P
Nifty MAY Sold Bought P/L : 10k L

Nifty MAY Contract Net P/L: 15k P

Nifty JUN Bought Sold P/L : 15k L
Nifty JUN Sold Bought P/L : 5k P

Nifty JUN Contract Net P/L: 10k L

So the Contractwise Turnover:

May 15k
Jun 10k
--------------
Total: 25k
--------------

OR a Tradewise

25k
10k
15k
50k
-----
55k
-----

Which one is correct?

Thank you.
