<h1>Section 44AA: Professionals Must Maintain Books of Accounts; Digital Formats Allowed; Non-Compliance Penalty of 25,000.</h1> Section 44AA of the Income Tax Act mandates that individuals in specified professions, such as legal, medical, engineering, and others, maintain books of accounts. Those not in these professions must keep accounts if their income or turnover exceeds certain thresholds. Specific records like cash books, ledgers, and receipts must be maintained, especially for medical professionals. Books must be kept for six years at the primary business location. Exceptions include businesses under Sections 44AD, 44AE, and others, unless claiming lower income. Non-compliance can result in a penalty of 25,000. Amendments allow books to be kept in digital formats.
