1. Section 44AD Eligibility: Yes, Section 44AD is fully applicable. The 5% cash limit threshold only applies to extend the turnover eligibility limit from ₹2 Crore to ₹3 Crore. Since the turnover is ₹1.08 Crore (below ₹2 Crore), exceeding 5% cash receipts/payments does not disqualify the assessee.
2. Tax Audit under Section 44AB: Tax audit is not required. Because the assessee is declaring profits above 8% of turnover, Section 44AB(e) is not attracted.
3. ITR Reporting: Select Section 44AD as the opt-in scheme and answer "No" to liability for tax audit under Section 44AB. Fill the 6%/8% presumptive income schedule with actual profits declared (>8%).
