Penalty under s. 271B for failure to obtain a tax audit report was challenged on the ground that the assessee was not liable to audit under s. 44AB. Applying CBDT Circular No. 452 dated 17-03-1986, which is binding on the tax authorities, the forum held that the assessee's role was akin to a kachha arahtia/broker and only brokerage constituted turnover for s. 44AB purposes; since brokerage did not exceed the statutory threshold of Rs. 40 lakhs, audit was not mandatory.
