Quick Summary
This discussion clarifies whether an assessee owning more than 10 goods carriage vehicles, who is eligible for presumptive taxation under Section 44AE, can also opt for Section 44AD. The consensus is that you cannot claim both. Section 44AE is specifically for businesses involving goods carriages, making it mutually exclusive with Section 44AD, which excludes businesses covered under 44AE.
But section 44AE does not contain any provision relating 44D... it only says if you show lower income then you have to get your books audited under sec 44AA...
