This is ideal for small businesses in Bikaner's Camel hide and wool products sector that want to minimise compliance burden.
Section 44ADA for professionals: Doctors, lawyers, engineers, architects, and consultants in Bikaner with gross receipts up to ₹75 lakh can declare 50% as presumptive income under 44ADA.
