Extra profits under presumptive returns

395 views 8 replies

Under presumptive tax eight percent profit is taken and accordingly ITR is filed.

 

Now say the turnover is FIFITY LACS. Presumptive profit is  four lacs. After deduction of 2.5 lacs exemption limit nett taxable income is 1.5 lacs on which tax is paid.

 

But if actual profits are more that eight percent that what to do and how to account it in balance sheet.

you may show more profit than 8%. As per 44AD minimum 8% is must. No limit on higher profit.
less than 2 crores & exact 8% so u need not to audit ur accounts u/s 44AB & u need not to maintain ur books of accounts u/s 44AA.

if more than 2 crores or more than 8% then u have to maintain books of accounts u;s 44AA & audits ur accounts u/s 44AB + 5 years

I am showing onely eight percent and filing ITR but is has a section to show balance sheet not accounts. How to show it.

the extra profit over and above 8% can be withdrawn by the owner of business showing as drawings.

To capital credit.
Here capital is increasing, how can we show as drawings. My view is to adjust the profit to capital account.
Alternatively if profit is less than 8% and the assessee wants to declare 8% and don't want any headache from IT Department. How he'll show his extra profit? Think again and answer carefully because it matters in real life
just declare 8% and add it to capital

cash balance may vary
if profit is more than 8% then declare it and add it to capital

declared income is lower than revise it
if p & l account showing more than 8% then u hv to decalre that much of income in IT
