Do Small Startups in Bangalore Need to Register for Professional Tax? Seeking Guidance

V S Shalini
Hi Seniors, I work for a startup company in Bangalore as an HR professional. We have a total of 13 salaried employees. I have been asked to prepare a salary structure for them, but I am not sure if we need to be registered for professional tax. I have checked online but cannot find any circular that mandates the employer size to be 20+ for registration with Professional Tax. Please help.

Professional Tax Registration in Bangalore

You have to go to the Corporation of Bangalore and get registered for professional tax. You need to submit documents like the rental agreement and the incorporation certificate with directors' or proprietors' details. It is important to approach and complete this process to avoid legal consequences.

There is no employer size limit; you have to pay PT even if you have one employee who is drawing a salary of more than Rs.10,000 and above. Contact number: [Phone Number Removed For Privacy Reasons].
