Professional tax is payable on the salary earned by an employee. Recovery towards notice period is a payment made to an employer in lieu of not serving the notice period. So no PT would be leviable on it, I am not aware of any clarificatory circular to the opposite effect.

Dear Vinodh,
Professional Tax is the tax levied on the gross income earned by everyone from his/her occupation within the jurisdiction of the concerned Local Body.
As Mr.KK!HR pointed out, recovery of notice period salary is a deduction from the earnings of the concerned employee. Therefore, logically and legally it cannot attract P.T.
