Professional Tax on Terminal Benefits

No professional tax can be deducted on terminal benefits because they do not fall under remuneration. Professional tax is a tax levied on remuneration earned by undertaking a profession within the geographical jurisdiction of the tax authority. When the individual is an NRI, it cannot be levied on income earned abroad.
