27 May 2021 * If the gross receipts from the business is more than Rs. 25,00,000 or the income from business is more than Rs. 2,50,000 in any of the 3 preceding years, then books of accounts is compulsory OR

*where the business is newly set up in the previous year, if his income from business is exceeded two lakh fifty thousand rupees or his gross receipts in business is likely to exceed twenty five lakhs rupees, during such previous year, books of accounts is mandatory.

In the cited issues -
+ the commission being the gross receipts, books of accounts is not mandatory.

+ the person doing speculation need not maintain books compulsorily since gross receipts and income is below the limits as in section 44AA.
