Confused About Professional Tax in Maharashtra? Let's Discuss Your Concerns

Hi,

Can anyone help me regarding PT in Maharashtra?

Meenu

Hi Meenu,

Professional tax is deducted from the Gross salary, and below stated is the slab for the same in Maharashtra:

0 - 2000 = 0
2001 - 2500 = 30
2501 - 3500 = 60
3501 - 5000 = 120
5001 - 9999 = 175
10,000 and more = 200

For employees who earn more than Rs. 10,000 a month, deduct an extra Rs. 100 in the month of February to reach the figure of Rs. 2500, which is the total amount of Professional Tax to be deducted in a year.

Hope this information is helpful to you!

Ms. Anjali,

The slabs (salary ranges) you have mentioned applicable in the state of Maharashtra for deducting PT are applicable to all other states of India or do they vary from state to state? Please clarify this for me to fulfill my obligation. Thank you.

Hi Pooja,

If you are new to the HR process or it is your first job, I am a bit confused by your question, "What is payroll?"

Kindly let me know if you require any further clarification.

Thank you.

Hi Pooja,

Please find the definition of payroll below:

Payroll includes all forms of compensation, such as salaries, wages, reported tips, commissions, bonuses, vacation allowances, sick-leave pay, employee contributions to qualified pension plans, and the value of taxable fringe benefits. For corporations, it includes amounts paid to officers and executives; for unincorporated businesses, it does not include profit or other compensation of proprietors or partners. Payroll is reported before deductions for Social Security, income tax, insurance, union dues, etc.
