I HAVE FILED ITR 4 FOR A.Y. 2015-16 AND ITR 3 FOR A.Y. 2016-17 FOR HAVING LOSS FROM PROPERTY DEVELOPMENT BUSINESS. IN BOTH ITR I HAVE SELECTED THE OPTION "NO" FOR STATUS "Whether liable to maintain accounts as per section 44AA" AND FOR THE STATUS "Whether liable for audit under section 44AB". BUT I GAVE BS AND PL DETAILS (regular books of accounts are maintained) TO SHOW THE LOSS. NOW MY QUESTION IS CAN I FILE ITR 3 UNDER SECTION 44AD BY SHOWING REGULAR BOOKS OF ACCOUNTS MAINTAIN?

Declare taxable income as per provisions of Section 44AD 6% or 8%, maintain books of accounts, get your books audited, submit Balance Sheet, Profit and Loss account and Audit Report.

@CA Visswanath Vadde? What? please do enlighten on how 44AD plus audit works if the profit is above the 6/8%. and how you maintain the books when you are declaring presumptive income?

When you want to maintain books of accounts, nothing is stopping you. Books of Accounts and submission of Financial Statements in ITR will be helpful for SME towards getting finance from Banks. Audit will also help for the above. Assessee can declare higher income as per Sectioin 44AD.

Submission of Return of Income under Section 44AD is under one form and with Books of Accounts is in another Form. Both are exclusive and cannot be combined.
