Overview

About This Service

Professional Tax is a state-level tax on salaried employees and self-employed professionals, capped at โ‚น2,500 per person per year by the Constitution. Employers need an Enrolment Certificate (EC) to pay tax on their own account and a Registration Certificate (RC) to deduct and deposit tax for employees. Rates, slabs, and filing frequency differ substantially between states. We determine what applies to you, obtain both certificates, and handle ongoing return filing.

โ‚น2,500 per person per financial year. This ceiling is fixed by Article 276 of the Constitution and no state can exceed it.
