19 October 2013 Thanks for ur valuable advice..
But I have a doubt that Section 44AB says if the profit is less than 8% of the turnover/receipts then the company has to get its accounts audited.
In this case also, the company's profit is less than 8%.
Plz advice.

19 October 2013 my dear friend presumptive income provision is being applicable only for Individual, HUF and Partnership firm(Not LLP)

so 8& provision does not applicable to company
