Hi All,
I'm Girish, working as an HR Executive in an IT company. I have a doubt regarding professional tax. I'm new to this company, and in our company, we are deducting professional tax from employees who are earning below 10,000/-. However, I have learned that professional tax should be deducted from employees earning 10,000/- and above.
1. What is the exact wage ceiling for professional tax?
2. Does professional tax differ between manufacturing sectors and other sectors?
Please clarify my doubts.
Thanks and Regards,
Girish

Professional Tax in Local Bodies
Professional tax is credited to local bodies such as Grama Panchayat, Municipality, and Municipal Corporation. It may differ from state to state. In Kerala, there is no ceiling. It is deducted slab-wise based on the income and is common to all sectors.

In Maharashtra, it starts from 2501/-. There is no profession tax for a salary up to 2500/- monthly.
2501 - 3500 ------ 60/-
3501 - 5000 ------ 120/-
5001 - 10000 ----- 175/-
10001 onwards ----- 2500/- annually in which every month 200, and in Feb, it is 300/-.
Before 2 years, it was like this. If not changed, then the profession tax is as mentioned above.

Hi All, we are deducting professional tax from employees' salaries as per the structure, but we don't have a copy of the professional tax certificate. It was misplaced somewhere. Is there any way to check our professional tax certificate online? I require your advice on this.
