State-wise registration, deduction, remittance and return filing for Professional Tax, in every state where it applies.
Professional Tax compliance means registering as an employer in every state that levies PT, deducting the correct slab-wise amount from each employee's salary, depositing it by the state's due date and filing periodic returns. PT is a state levy capped at ₹2,500 per person per year under Article 276 of the Constitution.
