Professional tax is a small state-level tax on income from employment, trade or profession, levied by states such as Maharashtra, Karnataka and West Bengal. Employers must register to deduct it from salaries (PTRC) and for their own liability (PTEC). We confirm applicability in your state and obtain the right registration.
