Dear Jd2001,
You are from Mumbai and your query is related to Maharashtra Professional Tax.
You are liable to deduct PT and remit it accordingly when Gross earning of an employee is more than Rs. 5000/- in a particular month.
When an employee is on loss of pay, he has not earned any wages. Where is the question to pay PT by you in such case?
