Dear citehr I have an query about profession tax. Is there any minimum number of employee should be there for deducting PT (even though we registered with PT OFFICE) like ESI less than 10 employee no need to deduct & for PF less than 20 employee . If so what is that minimum number where PT is not applicable and also is it applicable to all states? Regards N.C.Rangaswamy
Profession Tax is to be paid even if you do not employ any body. That means, PT is payable even by a self employed person. It is a misconception that profession tax is payable on salary but it is payable on the 'revenue' received by a person. It is payable by Doctors, Lawyers, Accountants etc working independendly.
