Professional Tax Confusion: How to Handle Employee Taxation Across States?

aish1283
We are an IT/ITES company based in Kerala. One of our employees is working for our client in Goa. Her salary is paid by us into her local bank account in Kerala. Will professional tax be deducted from her salary based on the place where her salary is paid? If not, what is the professional tax slab applicable in Goa for the current financial year?

Dear aish1283,

Is the employee being paid by the parent company or by the client itself? Also, I don't think that their PT is applicable in the Goa region.

Correct me if I am wrong...

Hi Mahr,

The salary is being paid by the company, not by the client. Also, she will be drawing only 4 months' salary in this financial year because her first salary is with respect to the month of December. So, is she eligible for TDS?

Thank you.
