Dear sir/madam
I am general medical practitioner (practicing for the past 29 years) usually not keeping any receipts. I get morethan 2.5 lakhs per year from Bank FD interest for which the banks deduct TDS @ 10%.
If my declared gross receipts are 7 lakhs /year at 50% my taxable professional income will be 3.5 lakhs. I do invest in PPF+ LIC premium put together 1,50,000/-
How do I calculate my tax?
Should I keep receipts hereafter if I opt for 44ADA?
Thanks in advance

Dear Sir,

In your case you dont need to maintain books of accounts if you opt for the section 44 ADA. For tax calculation I am assuming that you are not senior citizen & your income from FD interest is exact Rs. 2,50,000/- & Total income is Rs. 6,00,000/-(2,50,000+3,50,000). Tax Calculation is as follows:-

Gross Total Income:- Rs. 6,00,000/-.

Less:- Deduction u/s 80C:- Rs. 1,50,000//-.

Taxable Income:- Rs. 4,50,000/-

Tax:- Rs. 20,600 (On first 2,50,000 tax is nil, on next 2,00,000/- tax is 10.30% i.e Rs.20,600/-)

Less:- Rebate u/s 87A:- Rs. 5,000/-

Net Tax Payable:- Rs. 15,600/-

TDS Deducted by bank @ 10%:- Rs.25,000/-

Refund:- Rs. 9,400/-(25,000-15,600)
