Hi,

We can answer your query as follows, 

Tax Audit limit for the A.Y. 2012-13 is Rs. 60 Lakhs or above so,

(1) Now if Assessee is showing higher profit which is more than presumptitive taxation rate i.e. 8% then in that case S/he doesn't not required TAX AUDIT.

(2)Now, in second case if Assessee is showing less profit then the rate of presumptive taxation i.e. 3.8 Lakhs which is less then 8% then S/he required to Get Audited His/Her accounts from CHARTERED ACCOUNTANT. i.e. It attracts Tax Audit.

Abhi
