tax audit applicability

As per the provisions of Section 44AD if the net profit during the year is less than 8% of the gross turnover then books of accounts needs to be maintained and audited. Since in the given case the firm has incurred a loss during the year TAX AUDIT needs to be done.

I would like to correct myself. Yes Mr. Raja is correct if the total incomet of the firm does not exceed the maximum amount chargeable to tax then as per Section 44AD(5) no audit needs to done.

As you have shown your profit less than 6% or 8% as the case may be, audit is applicable.

Not applicable as the income is below limit of 1 crore
