Overview - professional tax registration business licenses Registration

What is it?

Professional Tax (PT) is a state-level tax levied on individuals earning income from employment, trade, or profession - governed by each state's Professional Tax Act. Employers are required to deduct PT from employee salaries and remit it to the state government. Employers themselves are also liable to pay PT as a business entity.

Which states levy it?

Maharashtra, Karnataka, West Bengal, Tamil Nadu, Gujarat, Andhra Pradesh, Telangana, Kerala, Madhya Pradesh, Meghalaya, Orissa, Assam, Jharkhand, Bihar, Goa, and others. Delhi, Uttar Pradesh, and Rajasthan do NOT levy Professional Tax.

Two registrations needed

Employer Registration: For the business to deduct and remit PT on behalf of employees. Employee Enrolment: For the individual proprietor or director to pay PT on their own income. Both are required in most states.

Maximum PT liability

The Constitution of India caps Professional Tax at ₹2,500 per person per year - making it a low-cost but mandatory compliance obligation.

Who Usually Requires This?

The PROFESSIONAL TAX REGISTRATION · Business Licenses solution matches perfectly with these profiles:

  • Profile
  • Why It Applies
  • Profile
  • Why It Applies
  • All employers in Professional Tax states
  • Every employer operating in a PT-applicable state - regardless of the number of employees - must register and deduct PT from employee salaries.
  • Startups and companies hiring their first employees
  • PT registration is one of the first payroll compliance steps when a company starts hiring in a PT state. It must be done before the first salary is processed.
  • Proprietors and self-employed professionals
  • Individual proprietors, freelancers, CAs, lawyers, doctors, and self-employed professionals are personally liable to pay PT in applicable states and must obtain enrolment certificates.
  • Companies expanding operations to new states
  • Opening a branch or office in a new PT-applicable state requires fresh PT registration in that state - state PT registrations are not portable.
  • Businesses that have never registered despite being liable
  • Many businesses in PT states operate without registration - accumulating penalty and interest liability. Voluntary registration and compliance prevents escalating penalties.
