Hi Saavi,

Professional Tax is typically calculated based on the gross income earned each month. When an employee's income surpasses a certain tax bracket, they are obligated to pay professional tax.

In Andhra Pradesh, if an employee's monthly salary exceeds Rs. 15,000, they are required to pay Rs. 150 per month as professional tax. Similarly, if it exceeds Rs. 20,000, the professional tax amount increases to Rs. 200 per month. This tax calculation isn't linked to the number of working days in a month.
