This discussion addresses a common issue for Section 44AD filings where the turnover reported in GST differs significantly from the figure in Form 26AS. The primary concern is that the Income Tax Department considers the 26AS figures, which can lead to issues if previous year's payments are credited to the current year, potentially causing double-counting of sales. The advice given is to adopt the GST figures if a valid reason for the difference can be provided, as GST data is reflected in 26AS.

Income tax department will consider 26AS figures. GST figures are taken in 26AS. Adopt GST figures if you have valid reason for the difference.
