PT Registration

Self-employed individuals who carry out their profession or trade on their own and are subject to profession tax are required to pay the tax to the state government. A state’s or union territory’s Commercial Taxes Department is the nodal body in charge of collecting 專業稅務 on the basis of specified tax slabs that differ by state and union territory. The tax is determined based on the individual’s yearly taxable income, however it can be paid either yearly or monthly. Self-employed taxpayers must acquire a Certificate of Enrolment in the required way from the authorised authority (of the relevant state).

In the case of salaried persons and wage earners, however, the employer is required to deduct 專業稅務 from the employee’s compensation on a monthly basis (as per the appropriate 專業稅務 slab) and deposit it with the state government. To deposit the deducted profession tax, the employer must get a Certificate of Registration from the appropriate government.

Applicability

專業稅務 is applicable on the following classes of persons:

1. An Individual

2. A Hindu Undivided Family (HUF)

3. A Company/Firm/Co-operative Society/Association of persons or a body of individuals, whether incorporated or not

How to pay 專業稅務?

PT can be paid online using the state’s 專業稅務 website. PT must be paid at the end of the month. If you pay taxes on a monthly basis, you must file electronically. The processes required to pay PT in each state are more or less identical.

Consequences of violation

The penalty, late fee, or interest charged for late payment of PT varies by state. Furthermore, fines for non-registration may be imposed. In addition to the penalty for late payment, there is a penalty for late submission of the return.

How to File a PT Return?

Each state’s approach for filing PT return is essentially the same. Because the payment is made on a monthly basis, the return must likewise be filed on a monthly basis. Along with the return, you must provide payment confirmation showing the tax was paid before the due date. Individuals must pay the 專業稅務 on a yearly basis.
