PT deduction on monthly basis - employee has LOP/LWP for a week

Harshads
Dear All, I just had a query to ask about payroll and PT deduction in it.
Salary of an employee is 12000 and pt applicable is 200 (2500p.a) but in a particular month the employee is absent for a week and has LOP/LWP for a week i.e. 7 days his net salary for the month is 9200 effectively.
So what will be the deduction of PT 200 or 175.
Request your guidance on the same.
Thank You
Harshad

Dear Mr Harshadas, can you please clarify your statement that"PT applicable is 200 (2500p.a) " Please frame your question with proper application of mind
In karnataka PT is applicable for Gross Salary earned in a month is Rs15,000/- & above.
PT Rate is @Rs200/- Per Employee
For Gross Salary of Rs12,000/- no PT is applicable since it comes below the threshold limit of Rs14,999/-
PT is payable on Gross Salary earned on per Month basis

You need to see the state profession tix act. in general, the amount is decided on salary earned. However, the difference is so small, it is not worth getting into a dispute with the department over it.
