Understanding Professional Tax for Employers in Gujarat: What Are the Rates and Penalties?

Dear all, Our company's SEZ project (under construction) is in the state of Gujarat, while the same is registered in the State of Delhi. I wanted to know what the rate of Professional Tax of the Company, i.e., EMPLOYER is. Kindly advise whether the same is applicable since incorporation. If so, what are the penalty provisions?

Regards,

Dear Pravinji,

I'm not asking for the Employees' Professional Tax but want to know the Employers' Professional Tax, for example, it is Rs. 2,500/- in the State of West Bengal. Kindly read my query carefully. Trust what I wanted to know is meant by it.

Best regards,

Professional Tax Payment Deadline

The professional tax for the company should be paid on or before 30th September. The amount is Rs. 2000 per year. There is no payment form to be filled.

We just want to know the employer contribution in professional tax in Gujarat. We are a little bit confused, but nobody could provide us a fruitful answer.

Professional tax would apply only to employees or others?

Please find the attached document. I hope this document will help resolve your confusion.
