A practical fit check

Presumptive or
regular business accounts?

The answer depends on eligibility, real margin, receipts, losses, records and future needs.

Presumptive route

Test current eligibility and consequence.

Regular books

Report supported profit, assets and liabilities.

Audit test

Review current thresholds and scheme history.

Owner's other income

Combine salary, property, gains and investments.

Proprietor return

Business. Owner. Books. Return.

A trade name does not create a separate income-tax person.

The proprietor reports business and personal income under the same PAN in the correct individual return.

01 / Outcome

What you receive,
ready to use.

We connect business books, GST, banking and personal income, then test presumptive versus regular accounting, audit applicability and the correct individual return.
