ITR 4 without books of account case

Yes he can file by showing the same under Income from other sources.

Or he can fill in ITR 4 as no Books accounts case and file accordingly.

Dear Sir,

You can file ITR 4s showing that No Books of Accounts are maintained for the FY 2014-15.

BUt for the FY 2012-13 where in you had filed ITR4S showing Gross Receipts as 18L. I hope you were not subject to VAT as you had crossed the Basic exemption Limit of VAT and hence was liable for registration and hence required to maintain books of accounts.

Thanking You.

It is advisable to prepare books of account as that may save substantially in payment of Income tax.

You may contact nearest chartered accountant to file returns without books of account.

Such practise is not advisable.

Kindly refer to Sec 44AA of Income Tax act, 1961. According to this specific professionals are required to maintain books of accounts and other documents for Income tax Purposes. For this kindly check the limits given.

Showing your professional Income under any other head of income is not recommended.

He has to maintain books of accounts.

However, as he did not maintain books of accounts, he may be levied penalty for non-maintenance of books of accounts.

So far as the filing of return is concerned, he has to the professional income as income from profession only. As the books of accounts are not maintained, he has to give the amounts in respect of his debtors, creditors, cash balances in the Balance Sheet section at the end and the amounts in respect of gross receipts, gross profit, expenses and net profit in the Profit and Loss section at the end.
