If an assessee declares his income less than 8% of his gross receipts, and such income is less than the exemption limit is he liabe to get his accounts audited?

Eg. Gross Receipts = Rs 45,00,000 and he declares his income at 4% = Rs. 1,80,000 is he liable to get his accounts audited?

hi.When assessee opt for section 44AD and if he declares his income less than 8% of gross receipts and if his income exceed maximum amount chargable to tax,he is liable for tax audit under sec 44AB.Here Maximum amount not chargable to tax is not basic exemption limit.it is after all deductions an assessee has under Chapter VIa.So clearly,if he opt for 44AD and offer less than 8% of his gross receipts as his income and if he liable to pay any amount of tax even a rupee,he is liable to tax audit under sec44AB.If found any mistakes in my above assetions,pls notify me!!!!

Under section 44AD PRESUMPTIVE INCOME, assessee can declare income @ 8% or higher... Where he wants to declare less than 8%, he is required to maintain book of accounts u/s 44AA and get audited u/s 44AB
Thanks for your replies!! If I have other sources income of rs. 1.5laks and pgbp income at 4% of rs. 1.8 laks am I liable for audit?
As per me audit is not required as income doesnt exceed maximum amount not charable to tax
Audit is required u/s 44ab
audit u/s44 ab is required
Audit u/s 44ab is required
Thank You Akshay :)
Since you are declaring income less than 8% on the gross turnover tax audit is required

one of my client's firm is having gross turnover of Rs.5200000 and they declared income less than 8%. further the income also does not exceeds the taxable limit. Whether Audit u/s 44AD is required or not? 

What if the last date for audit is passed n assessee filed his I.T. returns with income less than 8% !
