Clarification on accounts u/s 44AA

I am filing return for FY 22-23 and my turnover in current year is above 25 lacs. However for preceding 3 years i.e. FY 19-20, 20-21 and 21-22 it is less than 25 lacs. Do I need to maintain books of accounts as per sec 44AA? I am carrying on non-specified business.

Quick Summary
This discussion clarifies the requirements of Section 44AA regarding the maintenance of books of accounts. The user's turnover for FY 22-23 has exceeded 25 lakhs, while previous years were below this threshold. The query focuses on whether books are mandatory for an individual taxpayer under these circumstances, especially considering the profit limits mentioned in the proviso.

What  is  status ?  Individual , Firm , Company , LLP  or any other . 

Status is Individual....

Ok , What about Profit/ Income, preceding three years , because as per the proviso . If profit /income excesds more than 2 Lacs 50 for individual ,then also you have to maintain books of accounts mandatory.

Those are within 2.5 lacs

If you are not maintaining the books of accounts neither audit has been done , how one Can say this Profit and Turnover is absolutely correct, further Even if you filing ITR4 , Certain Information like , Sundry Creditors, Sundry Debtors, Stock, Cash in hand , Bank are mandatory fields , So in my opinion you maintain the books of accounts and should be  maintain  right  from  the  beginning  to  understand  business position .
