Hi Seniors,
In my office, they are deducting a professional tax every month, but they are not filing it. My doubt is, if we collect professional tax, whether we need to pay it to the government or if it belongs to the employer. If we need to pay it to the government, what is the procedure?
Kindly advise me on the same.

Dear Bharati,
Professional Tax can be deducted and deposited either monthly, half-yearly, or annually. For convenience, we deduct it monthly. For filing, we have to deposit the same with the Sales Tax department along with the employees' list mentioning individual deductions.

Dear Bharathi,
Professional Tax has to be deducted from employees every month and has to be remitted to the PT account. It shall be paid by cheque, cash, or DD in your local PT office. First of all, tell me in which city you are working.
First, check whether your company is enrolled with PT registration. If so, take the registration number. Fill out the form (it varies between each state) and remit it to the local Professional Tax office.

We are also a new company in Chennai. First, in March 2011, we submitted the documents along with fees for P.Tax of employees for the first half and second half of 2010. Still, we have not received the registration number. These corporation employees are lazy like dogs and don't do their work. You should go to the corporation office, PTax section in your ward/division, and inquire about the details. You are required to pay tax for the entire period since the establishment of your company.
We also consulted a consultant who informed us that the charges for obtaining PTax registration are 3000/-, which is too high. If you can afford the consultant, simply pay him a service charge of 3000/- rupees, and he will handle everything. Therefore, we directly approached the Corporation of Chennai. It has been two months, and we still have not received the PTax registration certificate. The PTax department instructs us to pay PTax on one side, while on the other side, they are uncooperative and unhelpful. I am planning to visit the revenue officer in Ripon Building to inquire about our PTax registration.
Regarding the submission of PTax half-yearly, I had previously asked a question, but no one responded. It appears that no senior on this site has the knowledge or time to guide us on PTax.

Hi Bharathi,
As Ravi advises, kindly approach some consultants so they can help you with obtaining the registration certificates. Otherwise, you will have to go through a lot of hassle to obtain the certificate. Alternatively, you can directly go to the relevant office with the necessary documents and pay some incidental expenses to the officer for a quicker process.
Dear Ravi,
The submission of half-yearly returns varies from state to state. In Karnataka, there are no half-yearly returns at all, only monthly and annual returns. There will be specific formats to fill and documents to submit. You can easily find these by browsing the official website.
