Section 44AD – Is it really a palpable transformation?

May 2, 2020 28334 Views 1 comment Print

Being an entrepreneur first, I had lot of disappointments on increase of limit as now there will be lesser business men falling under the tax audit bracket. While secondly, I was really happy all business men who want to show profit lesser than 8% fall under the bracket of tax audit though not directly but indirectly.
