Few critical points to understand about professional tax compliance:
Compliance differs from state to state
The compliance varies from one state to another. It is not uniform. Few states levy professional taxes where few others do not. Further the slab rates also vary. Hence if you have business place in multiple states or cities, you have to register for each of the location and pay taxes separately.
Return filing dates:
The frequency of filing the returns vary according to the city or state the business place is located. The business may be required to file either annual or half yearly return.
Applicability of professional tax:
Professional tax is applicable to all types of business entities. The professional tax is usually calculated on the basis of employee’s gross half yearly income. The employer is liable to calculate the tax on self-assessment basis and the employer deducts the tax from the employee’s salary. The tax so deducted is remitted to the respective corporation or municipality or panchayat on a half year on annual basis.
