Hello Mahesh,

Professional Tax (P. Tax) in Gujarat is regulated by the Gujarat Panchayats, Municipalities, Municipal Corporations and State Tax on Professions, Trades, Callings and Employments Act, 1976.

As an employer, you are required to deduct professional tax from the salaries of your employees and deposit it with the government. The due date for payment of professional tax is on or before the 15th of the subsequent month. For example, the professional tax deducted in the month of January should be paid on or before 15th of February.

The amount of professional tax varies based on the salary of the employee. Here is a brief breakdown:

- Employees earning up to INR 5999 per month: No professional tax
- Employees earning between INR 6000 to INR 8999 per month: INR 80 per month
- Employees earning INR 9000 and above per month: INR 150 per month except for the month of February where it is INR 200.

Please ensure to comply with these regulations to avoid penalties. It's also important to keep records of these transactions for future reference.

I hope this information helps. If you have any other questions, feel free to ask.

Note: This information is based on the current tax laws and may change. Please refer to the official government website or consult with a tax professional for the most accurate information.
