In this part you can gain knowledge about various provisions of the presumptive taxation scheme of section 44AD, section 44ADA and section 44AE.

Meaning of presumptive taxation scheme

As per the Income-tax Act, a person engaged in business or profession is required to maintain regular books of account and further, he has to get his accounts audited. To give relief to small taxpayers from this tedious work, the Income-tax Act has framed the presumptive taxation scheme under sections 44AD, 44ADA and 44AE.

A person adopting the presumptive taxation scheme can declare income at a prescribed rate and, in turn, is relieved from tedious job of maintenance of books of account and also from getting the accounts audited.

Meaning of presumptive taxation scheme

For small taxpayers the Income-tax Act has framed two presumptive taxation schemes as given below:

1) The presumptive taxation scheme of section 44AD.

2) The presumptive taxation scheme of section 44ADA.

3) The presumptive taxation scheme of section 44AE.

Presumptive Taxation Scheme of Section 44AD

For whom the presumptive taxation scheme of section 44AD is designed?

The presumptive taxation scheme of section 44AD is designed to give relief to small taxpayers engaged in any business (except the business of plying, hiring or leasing of goods carriages referred to in section 44AE).

The presumptive taxation scheme of section 44AD can be adopted by following persons :

1) Resident Individual

2) Resident Hindu Undivided Family

3) Resident Partnership Firm (not Limited Liability Partnership Firm)

In other words, the scheme cannot be adopted by a non-resident and by any person other than an individual, a HUF or a partnership firm (not Limited Liability Partnership Firm).

This scheme cannot be adopted by a person who has made any claim towards deductions under section 10A/10AA/10B/10BA or under sections 80HH to 80RRB in the relevant year.

Businesses not covered under the presumptive taxation scheme of section 44AD

The scheme of section 44AD is designed to give relief to small taxpayers engaged in any business, except the following businesses:

> Business of plying, hiring or leasing of goods carriages referred to in section 44AE.

> A person who is carrying on any agency business.

> A person who is earning income in the nature of commission or brokerage

Apart from above discussed businesses, a person carrying on profession as referred to in section 44AA(1)is not eligible for presumptive taxation scheme.

An insurance agent cannot adopt the presumptive taxation scheme of section 44AD

A person who is earning income in the nature of commission or brokerage cannot adopt the presumptive taxation scheme of section 44AD. Insurance agents earn income by way of commission and, hence, they cannot adopt the presumptive taxation scheme of section 44AD.

A person engaged in a profession as prescribed under section 44AA(1) cannot adopt the presumptive taxation scheme of section 44AD

A person who is engaged in any profession as prescribed under section 44AA(1) cannot adopt the presumptive taxation scheme of section 44AD.

A person whose total turnover or gross receipts for the year exceed Rs. 2,00,00,000 cannot adopt the presumptive taxation scheme of section 44AD

The presumptive taxation scheme of section 44AD can be opted by the eligible persons, if the total turnover or gross receipts from the business do not exceed Rs. 2,00,00,000. In other words, if the total turnover or gross receipt of the business exceeds Rs. 2,00,00,000 then the scheme of section 44AD cannot be adopted.

Manner of computation of taxable business income under the normal provisions of the Income-tax Act, i.e., in case of a person not adopting the presumptive taxation scheme of section 44AD

Generally, as per the Income-tax Act, the taxable business income of every person is computed as follows:

Particulars Amount
Turnover or gross receipts from the business XXXXX
Less : Expenses incurred in relation to earning of the income (XXXXX)
Taxable Business Income XXXXX

Manner of computation of taxable business income under the normal provisions of the Income-tax Act, i.e., in case of a person not adopting the presumptive taxation scheme of section 44AD

For the purpose of computing taxable business income in the above manner, the taxpayers have to maintain books of account of the business. Income will be computed on the basis of the information revealed in the books of account.

The manner of computation of taxable business income in case of a person adopting the presumptive taxation scheme of section 44AD

In case of a person adopting the provisions of section 44AD, income is computed on presumptive basis at the rate of 8% of the turnover or gross receipts of the eligible business for the year.

In order to promote digital transactions and to encourage small unorganized business to accept digital payments, section 44AD is amended with effect from the assessment year 2017-18 to provide that income shall be computed at the rate of 6% instead of 8% if turnover/gross receipt is received by an account payee cheque or an account payee bank draft or use of electronic clearing system through a bank account or through such other electronic mode as may be prescribed during the previous year or before the due date of filing of return under section 139(1).

Hence, in case of a person adopting the provisions of section 44AD, income will not be computed in normal manner as discussed earlier (i.e., Turnover less Expenses) but will be computed @ 6% or 8%, as the case may be, of the turnover or gross receipt.

However, a person may voluntarily disclose his business income at more than 8% or 6%, as the case may be, of turnover or gross receipt.

The presumptive income computed as per the prescribed rate is the final income and no further expenses will be allowed or disallowed

Under the normal provisions of the Income-tax Act, taxable business income will be computed after allowing deduction in respect of expenses which are deductible as per the Income-tax Act and after disallowing expenses which are not deductible as per the Income-tax Act.

In case of a person who is opting for the presumptive taxation scheme of section 44AD, the provisions of allowance/disallowances as provided for under the Income-tax Act will not apply and income computed at the presumptive rate of 6% or 8% will be the final taxable income of the business covered under the presumptive taxation scheme. In other words, the income computed as per the prescribed rate will be the final taxable income of the business covered under the presumptive taxation scheme and no further expenses will be allowed or disallowed.

While computing income as per the provisions of section 44AD, separate deduction on account of depreciation is not available. However, the written down value of any asset used in such business shall be calculated as if depreciation as per section 32 is claimed and has been actually allowed.

No need to maintain books of account as prescribed under section 44AA

Section 44AA deals with provisions relating to maintenance of books of account by a person engaged in business/profession. Thus, a person engaged in business/profession has to maintain books of account of his business/profession according to the provisions of section 44AA.

In case of a person engaged in a business and opting for the presumptive taxation scheme of section 44AD, the provisions of section 44AA relating to maintenance of books of account will not apply. In other words, if a person adopts the provisions of section 44AD and declares income @ 6% or 8% (as the case may be) of the turnover, then he is not required to maintain the books of account as provided for under section 44AA in respect of business covered under the presumptive taxation scheme of section 44AD.

In case of vehicles other than heavy goods vehicle, income will be computed at the rate of 7,500 for every month or part of a month during which the goods carriage is owned by taxpayer. Part of the month would be considered as full month.

Note 1 : If the actual income is higher than the presumptive rate, i.e., higher than Rs. 1,000/Rs. 7,500, then such higher income can be declared.

Note 2 : “Heavy Goods Vehicle” means any goods carriage having gross vehicle weight exceeding 12,000 kilograms.

Illustration

    I would like to confirm that if Net profit of a businessman is less than 8% and his sales are also less than 60 lacs. But his profit is less than maximum exemption limit, whether he is required to conduct tax audit of his accounts.

    MY CASE IS OPEN FOR SCRUTINY ON THE BASIS OF CASS FOR CASH DEPOSIT INTO A BANK ACCOUNT. I HAD TWO TRUCKS & THE RETURN FILED U/S 44AE I AM ALSO PARTNERSHIP FIRM WHERE I GOT THE REMUNERATION & INTEREST. WHILE FILING THE RETURN I HAD SHOWN BOTH THE INCOME i.e SHRE IN PROFIT OF THE FIRM & U/S 44AE.
    MY QUESTION IS WHETHER THE ASSESSING OFFICER ASK ME TO FURNISH THE BOOKS OF ACCOUNT, DETAILS OF MY BANK ACCOUNT & SOURCES OF CASH DEPOSITED INTO BANK.

    Section 44AF – Business of retail trading of goods
    (Applicable till A.Y. 2010-11, this section will become inoperative from AY 2011-12 and the retail traders can choose to be governed by section 44AD from A.Y. 2011-12 which requires presumptive income at 8% of gross receipts/turnover)

    1] Applies to:
    Any person engaged in the business of retail trade in any goods or merchandise shall be covered by this provision. If his turnover from the above business do not exceed Rs. 40 lakhs.

    Is it 40 Lakhs or 60 Lakhs for AY 2011-12 ?

  30. Rustom says:

    If the turnover exceeds the limit in 44AB for Fy2010-11, and the business is that specified in 44AE. Is the Audit applicable??? Is it allowed to estimate the income on presumptive basis of 44AE??
    Please give your answer with reasonable reason

  31. Savio Zuzarte says:

    I would like to confirm the term “Total Income” u/s 44AD. Under Sub Section 5, if the profits declared is less than 8% AND total income exceeds the maximum limit, than audit is required. My Question is if Business Loss is Rs. 20,000 and Income from Other Sources is Rs. 1,90,000, What will be the TOTAL INCOME of that person and whether he has to go for AUDIT?

  32. Harish Bansal says:

    Since it is clearly specified through your bank accounts that you have earned 18 lakh Rs during the P/Y 10-11, i suppose you should show your income as same as is your bank account. On the other hand, since law has specified that if assessee voluntarily wants to assess more income than the presumptive taxation as in your case 8% of rs. 50 lakh i.e. Rs. 4 lacs, assessee could show. The word voluntarily has been used. So untill you are covered in assessment by the department, you can show your income equal to presumptive income.

  33. ajinkya modak says:

    turnover of assessee for FY 2010-11 (AY 2011-12) = Rs 50lakhs,, actual profits = Rs 18lakhs which is reflected in bank accounts,, however assessee wants declare income as per 44AD (8%) ,, can he do so??
