Frequently Asked Questions
Professional Tax applies to salaried employees, self-employed professionals (doctors, lawyers, CAs, architects, etc.), and business owners in states that have enacted Professional Tax legislation. The obligation to deduct and remit Professional Tax from employees' salaries rests with the employer.
No. Professional Tax is a state-level levy and is not applicable in all states. It is currently levied in states including Maharashtra, Karnataka, West Bengal, Andhra Pradesh, Tamil Nadu, Telangana, Gujarat, Madhya Pradesh, Odisha, and several others. States like Delhi, Rajasthan, Uttar Pradesh, and Haryana do not impose Professional Tax.
The Constitution of India caps Professional Tax at ₹2,500 per person per financial year. The exact amount varies by state and is typically structured as a slab based on monthly salary. For example, in Maharashtra, employees earning above ₹10,000 per month pay ₹200/month (₹2,400/year), with February being ₹300.
Non-compliance attracts penalties, interest, and in some states, prosecution. Employers must register within 30 days of hiring employees, deduct Professional Tax from salaries each month, and remit it to the state authority within the prescribed timeline. Verslas Guru handles end-to-end Professional Tax registration and compliance to keep your business penalty-free.
