No account case in ITR 3

No I don't think that can be done.

If you opt for 44AD then it can work otherwise not.

Even if you are not maintaining proper books of accounts and since you want to show profit below 8% it is advisable to fill full P&L rather than using no account case or it can lead to a defective notice from Income Tax Department.

Hope you find the information helpful, if you do please rate it 5 and provide your valuable feedback for my improvement.

You can also book a phone consultation for further discussion.

Thank you.

If the total income including 8% of 25 lacs is upto Rs.5 lacs then it is better to avail 44AD.

Yes, you can show a lower profit, but you must fill out your balance sheet and P/L using ITR 3. 

You have to select 44AA as yes otherwise, your return will be marked as defective. 

Further, even if you can show more than 8% of profit using 44AD provision(No accounts case), your business profit will be around Rs.1 Lakhs. If after adding all sources of your income, your total income is below Rs. 5,00,000, you will not be liable to pay any tax. 

No you cannot show profit less than 8%.

You will have to fill balance sheet and P/L if you show lower than 8% else your return can be treated as defective return. If your total income is less than Rs. 2.5Lakh, you can choose to not opt for 44AD. Else, you cannot show below 8% profit.

Thank you.

Use 44AD and show atleast 8% profit or fill full ITR
