You can start at maintenance but if your strength doesn't keep going up fairly regularly then you will have to increase calories to keep the process moving.
Put it this way - your final goal is not going to be at 60kg so something has to move at some point.

As mentioned strength is a good indicator of muscle growth.
You should be building more muscle as you aren't fat and you need to develop your posterior chain in order to pull your shoulders back and stand straight that will make a huge different in your structure.
Get your main lifts up and you will see good results.
