Dear all,
We have an employee to whom we did not pay Jan 2011 salary; hence, there was no PT deduction for him in Jan. However, in the month of February, we are paying him 2 months' salary (JAN & FEB).
I would like to know if PT will be deducted only for the Feb month or if we have to deduct for 2 months PT.

Hey, for PT deduction, there is a slab which is given by the government in Gujarat (GPT - Gujarat Professional Tax). The salary slab is as follows:
- 0 to 2999/- Rs: 20
- 3000 to 5999: 40
- 6000 to 9999: 80
- 10000 and above: 120
I don't know the exact figures.

Even if you pay 2 months' salary together, the PT is calculated per month, i.e., for each salary. Obviously, if the employee worked for Jan and you didn't pay him, the onus is on you to pay up. If he had been on unpaid leave or if his earnings are equal to or below the minimum salary slab of the respective state for Professional Tax, only then can you show that no PT was applicable. In all other cases, PT would need to be deducted and paid to the government.

PT Calculation
You should have prepared the wage sheet immediately after the expiry of January month with the deduction of PT amount. The fact that you could not make the payment for that month is another issue.
I suggest that you prepare two different wage sheets for January and February so that you can pay the PT amount using two separate challans.
