Dear Sir,

An Assesse who is a doctor by Profession and he does not maintain books of accounts. So can he fill ITR 4 by filing the portion of No Account Case where regular books of accounts are not maintained for A.Y. 2016-17 and please tell whether there would be any problem from IT Department.

Please suggest the best.

Thanks,

Abhishek Roy Choudhury.
