Dear Gajendranerpawar,
Profession Tax is a tax on profession, trade, callings and employment by State Government in accordance with Article 276 of Constitution of India.
If you are engaged in any profession, trade, callings or employment in any State or UT and that State or UT has enacted the Law to levy this tax, you are liable to pay it.
If you are engaged in profession, trade, callings or employment in more that one State, you are liable to pay this tax in every such State if that State has enacted the Law.
Different States have different rates and different method of collection.
Kolkata has this tax and you are liable to pay it even though you are paying it in Maharashtra.
