15 January 2017 To whom section 44AD is not applicable has been specified in sub section 6.Clause (i) of sub-section 6 prescribes that a person carrying on profession as referred to in sub-section (1) of Section 44AA is not allowed to show income on presumptive basis U/s 44AD. However, your case is not covered by Section 44AA(1) and as such income can be shown U/s 44AD.
