Professional Tax is a direct tax on individuals earning income from professions, employment, or trades, collected by State or Union Territory governments in India. Unlike income tax, which is levied by the Central Government, employers deduct professional tax from salaried individuals' salaries and remit it to the state. Other professionals must pay this tax directly. The amount varies by state but is capped at ₹2,500 annually. Understanding professional tax is essential for compliance and financial planning.
What is Professional Tax?
Professional tax is a direct tax imposed on individuals earning an income from practicing a profession, employment, calling, or trade. Unlike income tax, which is levied by the Central Government, professional tax is collected by the respective State or Union Territory governments in India. For salaried individuals, employers are responsible for deducting professional tax from the salary and remitting it to the state government. Professionals operating as independent entities are mandated to remit the professional tax directly to the authorities. While the applicable tax amount varies by state jurisdiction, it is subject to an annual ceiling of ₹2,500.
Professional Tax Rates
The maximum annual professional tax payable is ₹2,500. This tax is deducted from an individual's income on a monthly basis and is calculated on the basis of the person's gross income. Each state/union territory determines tax slabs, which vary accordingly.
Who Pays Professional Tax?
For salaried employees, the employer is responsible for deducting professional tax and paying it to the respective state government. Self-employed professionals such as freelancers and individuals in business must directly pay professional tax to the government.
Employer's Responsibility for Professional Tax
Business owners must ensure professional tax is deducted from employees' salaries and paid to the appropriate government department. They are also responsible for filing the tax return within the specified time, along with proof of tax payment.
Exemptions from Professional Tax
Certain individuals are exempt from paying professional tax, including:
Professional Tax Registration and Compliance
Registering for professional tax is mandatory for businesses and professionals within 30 days of starting operations or employment. OnEasy makes this process simple and hassle-free, ensuring timely and accurate registration.
Due Dates for Professional Tax Payment
Employers with more than 20 employees must pay professional tax by the 15th of the following month. For businesses with fewer employees, payment is due quarterly.
Professional Tax Return Filing
Professional tax returns must be filed by all liable individuals and entities. Filing deadlines differ by state, and timely filing is crucial to avoid penalties.
