Presumptive taxation

344 views 5 replies

if someone is trading in F&O on regular basis and he has turnover of around 50 Lacs and has actual profit of 10 lacs.

Now my question is, can he file return U/S 44AD and show profit of 8% and avoid extra burden of tax ? as Act itself allow us to show profit of 8% if turnover is below 2 Crore.

Any case law for referance?

I have calculated turnover on the basis of sum of all debits and credits in my ledger account.

Assessee is individual.

I know what 44AD provision is.  i just want to know weather i can show 8% profit even if my profit is 20%.

kindly give case law referance as provision is not clear on this matter.

 

yes u can do that bcz books of accounts are not mandatory to be prepare if u are opting 44ad and actual profit doesn't matter. min profit should be 8%
