Professional Tax Registration

Professional Tax is a state-levied tax on employment and professions, and employers must both register and deduct it correctly from employee salaries. We handle registration and ongoing compliance across every state you operate in.

What is Professional Tax Registration?

Professional Tax registration has two parts for an employer: a Professional Tax Registration Certificate (PTRC) to deduct and deposit tax from employees' salaries, and in some states a Professional Tax Enrolment Certificate (PTEC) for the business/professional itself.

How We Deliver This Service

PTRC/PTEC Application

Applications are filed with the respective state's Professional Tax department, online where available.

Frequently Asked Questions

Is Professional Tax applicable in every state?
No, some states and union territories do not levy Professional Tax at all - we confirm applicability based on where your employees are based.
What is the difference between PTRC and PTEC?
PTRC allows an employer to deduct and deposit tax on behalf of employees; PTEC is for the business/professional's own Professional Tax liability - some states require both.
What is the maximum Professional Tax that can be deducted?
State laws typically cap Professional Tax at ₹2,500 per person per year, though exact slabs vary by state and income level.
Do I need separate registration for each state I operate in?
Yes, Professional Tax registration and compliance is state-specific, so a separate PTRC/PTEC is generally needed for each applicable state.
What happens if Professional Tax is not deducted or deposited on time?
Interest and penalty can apply for delayed deduction, deposit or return filing, so it's best handled on a fixed monthly compliance calendar.
