For a construction company, tax audit under Section 44AB applies if the turnover exceeds Rs 1 crore (for assessment years after AY 2016-17, the limit was raised from Rs 60 lakh to Rs 1 crore).
Since your turnover is Rs 46 lakh, **you are NOT required to get a tax audit done** under the Income Tax Act.
Also, having a net profit of Rs 45 lakh on Rs 46 lakh turnover is quite high, but profit amount doesn't trigger tax audit—turnover does.
**Summary:**
* Turnover Rs 46 lakh < Rs 1 crore threshold → No tax audit required * Net profit does not trigger tax audit, only turnover does * File income tax return as usual
