Profession Tax - Professional Tax [Thread 47927]

Hi All
I want clarification about the provisions of Profession Tax.
It is payable by the Company Registered under the Companies Act 1956 & engaged in any profession, trade etc (i also want list of those profession trade etc) based on the annual income of the Company.
And above-mentioned Company is also required to deduct the staff profession tax from its employees' salary.
Both are independent right?
Please Clarify
Regards,
Sheetal
