Dear All,
My company headquarters are in Mumbai. I always work at sites outside Maharashtra. Professional Tax was not deducted previously since I was working outside Maharashtra State. However, starting from last month, they have been deducting PT. I raised this issue with my office, and they responded that PT is applicable to all employees since my payroll is processed at the company headquarters in Mumbai. This has left me confused. What is the correct procedure? Should PT be deducted or not?
Moreover, what steps can be taken if the employer overestimates your budgeted income and deducts excess Income Tax every year, while also delaying the issuance of Form-16? Due to these issues, I am unable to file my IT returns on time, leading to difficulties in receiving refunds.
I would appreciate it if someone could provide guidance on this matter.
Regards,
Sen
