This discussion clarifies the applicability of a tax audit under Section 44AB for partnership firms. Generally, if a firm's turnover is less than 1 Cr and profit is below 8% (effectively zero after remuneration and interest), a tax audit is not required. However, this exemption does not apply if the firm has opted for Section 44AD in any of the preceding five years.
