The state tax employers forget until the notice — PTEC for the entity, PTRC for deducting from salaries, registered and calendared.
Starts at ₹2,499 + government fees, if any
Professional tax is a state-level levy (capped at ₹2,500 a year per person) applicable in Maharashtra, Karnataka, West Bengal, Telangana, Gujarat, and about a dozen other states — with two registrations: PTEC (the entity’s own liability) and PTRC (the employer’s licence to deduct from employee salaries and remit). Delhi and UP, notably, levy none.
It is small money with disproportionate notice volume — registration is often due within 30 days of hiring, and each state has its own slabs, portals and return cycles. We register you in the right states, set up the deduction slabs in your payroll, and calendar the returns.
