Income tax on trading

701 views 4 replies

Hello experts

How does a shop keeper involved in trading calculate his income tax ?

If he is selling only 1 type of item for Rs. 100 whereas his purchasing cost is Rs. 10.

He is selling 1 lakh items per year.

Any particular template of expenses and the tax calculation method available ?

Can some one prvoide me some information please ?

Thank you

Kiran

Any expense related to business can be claimed(except some disallowed expenses u/s 40). And your income will be calculated normally as income under Business. As your sales turnover doesnt exceed 1 crore you are not liable for tax audit u/s 44AB

Hello Kiran,

Plz describe the nature of trading,product.

Any expenses incurred directly or indirectly for the purpose of selling are allowed like accounting charges,freight,salary to employees,bussiness promotion expenses,depreciation,vechicle running and maintaince expense etc...

income can also be taxable on presumptive basis u/s 44 AD if your turnover is below 1 cr. and net profit is 8 % or more.

 

but if you show ur profit below 8% than you need tax audit u/s 44 AB
