Tax audit gives an assurance to govt. about correctness and compliance of tax law in force. Removing this, will lead to huge burden on part of tax authorities and AAM Junta will also face more n more scrutiny by officials and everyone know how deptt official's work is easy n simple.

There are chances that the tax returns will be made exhaustive to cover all the points mentioned in the tax audit report. This may happen but the timing is not sure

I think the news making rounds is in respect of harsh mandatory Tax Audit conditions contemplated in section 44AD.

In view of tax slabs expected to be rationalized , the threshold turnover limit for 44AB tax audit purpose is likely to be raised to a very comfort zone.
