What Is Professional Tax?

Professional Tax is a state-level tax/levy applicable in states and union territories where the relevant legislation is in force. The rules, rates, exemptions, registration and filing requirements vary by jurisdiction.

Professional Tax Enrolment

PTEC generally refers to enrolment of a person or entity liable to pay Professional Tax in the applicable jurisdiction.

  • Applicable professional/entity enrolment
  • State-specific registration
  • Applicable tax payment

PTRC

Professional Tax Registration

PTRC generally relates to an employer's registration for deduction and payment of Professional Tax from employees, where applicable.

Important: Professional Tax is not applicable in every Indian state/UT and the exact rules differ by jurisdiction. Registration, rates, exemptions, due dates and return requirements should therefore be checked for the relevant state before filing.
