Understanding Professional Tax: How Much Is Deducted from Your Salary Each Month?

santosh verma
Hi All,

Please find the various slabs of the professional tax applicable. It might be helpful. The professional tax is always deducted from the gross salary.

Employees whose monthly salaries, number of employees, rate of tax, cess, and amount of tax deducted are as follows:

A. Rs.3,000/- to Rs.4,999/- - Rs.30.00
B. Rs.5,000/- to Rs.7,999/- - Rs.60.00
C. Rs.8,000/- to Rs.9,999/- - Rs.100.00
D. Rs.10,000/- to Rs.14,999/- - Rs.150.00
H. Rs.15,000/- & Above - Rs.200.00

Hi,

Are the slabs of professional tax that you mentioned applicable in Andhra Pradesh or any other state? Please reply.

PT slabs are different in different states because they come under state government jurisdiction. In Delhi & NCR, there is no PT as all salaried individuals are highly influential & closely related to politicians (Lighter side). For the benefit of members, I am attaching the PT slabs for 5 states where we are having business operations.

Hi,

Can anyone provide me with the latest Professional Tax Slab that has been amended, effective from April 2008?

As per my knowledge,

PT Rs. Salary/Wages up to 2500 per month Nil. 2501 to 3500 per month 60. 3501 to 5000 per month 120. 5001 to 10000 per month 175. More than 10000 per month 200 (max).

It is also considered that if the salary/wages per month exceed 10000 in every month, PTax deduction in the month of February of every year is Rs. 300/-. In other words, the maximum PTax that will be deducted in a year is Rs. 2500 (200 per month from March to January & 300 for the month of February).

Hi, Can anyone tell me what is the detailed process for taking a new employee into the organization? This includes everything from giving the offer letter to the induction process. What are the steps I need to follow?

Hi,

I think the Ptax slab attached for 5 states (xls by ajsaheb) is not the updated one. As far as I know, the minimum salary to be eligible for Ptax deduction for Kolkata is now Rs. 3,000/- and not Rs. 1,500/-.

In Andhra Pradesh, Professional Tax has changed since January 2008. Now, up to 5000/-, there is no tax. The tax rates are as follows:

- 6000 to 10000 = 80/-
- 10000 to 15000 = 100/-
- 15000 to 20000 = 150/-
- 20000 and above = 200/-

These are the professional tax slabs in ANDHRA PRADESH.
