Tax audit liability for a engineering consultancy firm

Dear Sir,

Can anybody confirm that , I an engineering consultancy firm, having its turnover of Rs 25 lacs in a financial year, then for that firm tax audit is required or not. As the firm is purely doing a consultancy job. having its service tax registration.

As per sec 44AA engineering and technical consultancy are considered as profession and as per sec 44AB tax audit is required if turnover exceeds 15 lakhs in case of profession

 

CIT Vs. Manmohan Das (Deceased) [1966] 59 ITR 699 (SC).

The expression "profession" involves the idea of an occupation requiring purely intellectual skill or manual skill controlled by the intellectual skill of the operator, as distinguished from an operation which is substantially the production or sale or arrangement for the production or sale, of commodities. 

Therefore in my opinion tax audit is required
