Professional Tax Registration in Maharashtra
My company has recently opened a new branch in Maharashtra (Pune). Our company is registered under the Shops & Establishments Act. Now, we need to register for Professional Tax (PT). I kindly request all the experts and statutory compliance practitioners to assist me in understanding the registration process and the requirements for monthly, quarterly, half-yearly, and annual returns, if any.
In Chennai, we pay the PT challan on a half-yearly basis, whereas in Andhra Pradesh, it is paid monthly. I would appreciate it if you could provide me with a detailed insight into this matter.
Thanks,

You need to take the following steps:
Steps for PT Enrollment and Registration
i. You need to apply online for PT enrollment of your company if it is not a proprietary or partnership firm.
ii. You need to apply for PT enrollment of every director, partner, or proprietor, as the case may be. If already enrolled, there is no need to apply now.
iii. You need to apply online for PT registration, which will authorize you to deduct PT from employees' salaries and remit it under this registration.
Online applications should be made on the portal: www.mahavat.gov.in. You will find directions on the portal for submitting the online applications. According to these directions, you will approach the authority with the required documents and collect the respective certificates of enrollment/registration. These certificates will mention the payments.
Under each enrollment, the payment is annually payable. Under registration, whatever PT you have deducted needs to be remitted. In the first year, as mentioned in the certificate, and from the next year onwards, annually or monthly depending on your PTax liability during the previous year.
You need to engage a person like me to take care of such issues. You can get solutions to every problem related to HR/Labour Law and compliance under it. From me, you will get all this comprehensively under one umbrella.
