Understanding Tax Implications for Professional Income above 50 Lakhs: Expert Guidance from Alliance Tax Experts

Introduction:

When professional receipts exceed 50 Lakhs, it's crucial to navigate the tax implications effectively. In such cases, professionals are ineligible for the benefits of Presumptive Tax under Section 44ADA. Instead, they must prepare a Profit & Loss Account, Balance Sheet, and undergo an audit conducted by a practising Chartered Accountant. In this blog post, in collaboration with Alliance Tax Experts, we'll explore the necessary compliances and provide valuable insights to help you make informed decisions about your professional income. Alliance Tax Experts, renowned income tax consultants, offer expert guidance and assistance to ensure you stay compliant and optimize your tax savings.

1. Preparation of Books of Accounts, Balance Sheet, and Profit & Loss A/c:
2. When your professional receipts exceed 50 Lakhs in a financial year, it becomes imperative to maintain proper books of accounts, including a Balance Sheet and Profit & Loss A/c. These records will form the basis for filing your Income Tax Return using the ITR 3 form. Alliance Tax Experts can provide comprehensive support in organizing and preparing these essential documents.
3. Audit under Section 44AB by a Chartered Accountant:
4. Given the higher annual receipts, you'll need to engage a practising Chartered Accountant to conduct an Income Tax Audit. The CA will meticulously verify facts, review invoices, and prepare the necessary Audit Report, which must be submitted alongside your Income Tax Return. Alliance Tax Experts, with their extensive experience in tax audits, can ensure a thorough and hassle-free audit process.
5. TDS Deduction on Payments:
6. As your annual receipts surpass 50 Lakhs, it becomes mandatory to deduct TDS from expenses. To fulfil this requirement, you'll need to obtain a Tax Deduction and Collection Account Number (TAN) to deduct and deposit the TDS correctly. Alliance Tax Experts can guide you through the TDS deduction process, ensuring compliance and accurate depositing of TDS.

Meeting GST Compliances:

In addition to Income Tax Act compliances, professionals with receipts exceeding 20 Lakhs p.a. must fulfil GST compliances. Alliance Tax Experts specialize in both income tax and GST regulations, providing comprehensive assistance to ensure you meet the necessary requirements while maintaining seamless integration between the two.

Computation of Income and Tax Liability:

Unlike presumptive taxation, your income will be computed on an actual basis using the formula: Income = Receipts – Expenses – Depreciation. To claim deductions for expenses and depreciation, maintaining copies of all expenses is essential. Income Tax will be levied based on applicable slab rates, with the highest slab rate of 30% being applicable. Alliance Tax Experts can help you optimize your income computation and identify potential deductions to minimize your tax liability.
