what is it

What is Professional Tax?

A state-level tax under Article 276 of the Constitution, capped at ₹2,500 a year per person. Registering under the wrong category, PTEC instead of PTRC or the reverse, is the most common mistake we see.

self-employed

PTEC Registration

For professionals, proprietors, partners and directors who pay professional tax on their own income. One-time registration, then an annual payment.

employers

PTRC Registration

For any business with even one salaried employee in a PT state. Requires deducting PT from salary every month and filing periodic returns.

₹999 — Is That Enough for Correct PT Registration?

Yes. This is a standardised state-portal filing for our team, not a custom compliance audit. The fee reflects volume across states we already work in daily, not a shortcut on accuracy.

questions

Frequently Asked Questions

Is professional tax applicable in my state? +
It applies in roughly 20 states including Maharashtra, Karnataka, West Bengal, Tamil Nadu, Telangana, Andhra Pradesh, Gujarat, Madhya Pradesh, and Kerala. States like Delhi, Haryana, Rajasthan, Punjab and UP currently do not levy it. Share your state and we'll confirm.
What's the difference between PTEC and PTRC? +
PTEC is for individuals paying tax on their own income, self-employed professionals, proprietors, partners and directors. PTRC is for employers who deduct PT from employee salaries. A company with staff often needs both.
What happens if I miss the registration deadline? +
Most states require registration within 30 days of becoming liable. Late registration typically attracts a small per-day penalty plus interest on any unpaid tax, and it compounds the longer it's left.
Can professional tax be deducted from my income tax? +
Yes. Salaried employees can claim it under Section 16(iii), but only under the old tax regime. Self-employed professionals can claim it as a business expense under Section 37(1).
Do I need PT registration if I only have one employee? +
Yes. The requirement is triggered by having a salaried employee in a PT state, not by headcount. Even one employee triggers PTRC for the employer.
