HI
Professional Tax differs for different regions. Some states are deducting Professional Tax half yearly basis. It has to be verified with state Government professional Tax rules.

You have to follow the region wise PT (as applicable to that state). Professional Tax is deducted as per rates applicable to the state where the employees are working.
I hope you got clarified.

Dear Vaitheeswaran and Jyothi :
The P Tax is governed and levied by the States and not Central. Hence it is mandatory to follow P T by region-wise.
To clarify Jyo - it is immaterial for the P Tax authroities where the Head Office is situated. But if the employees are in the rolls of Head office then the P Tax can also be by the HO situated region.
This means that the employees working in other regions are on a temporary assignments from HO and all the laws applicable to the HO will be applicable to the employees.
Hope this is clarified.

Hi,
The applicability of PT will definitely comes under the purview of local act.However when the orgnisation does not have any place of business and deputed to client place the applicabuility of the act are all depends on where the salary is being paid. More than that, for the employer to get registred they should have shop act/trade licence etc which are the mandatory requirements. When the employee are deputed then the question of applying these licence does not arise. Hence it is desirable to deduct the tax from the place where salary is being distributed instead of avoiding paying the tax.
