Whether the assessee can declare profit @8%/6% in respect of trading activity and file the return of income without getting books of accounts audited or
Whether the assessee has to get his books of accounts audited as total income exceeds basic exemption limit as said in 44AD(5)?
The assessee had declared 8% in past financial year.

22 May 2020 first, you have to disclose minimum 8% or 6% profit whereas there is no limit on maximum. So, agree with CA R SEETHARAMAN, yes audit is not applicable on you
secondly, as per section 10 (2), the money received as appropriation of profit is not included in your taxable income.
