Professional Tax registration across PT-levying States — Maharashtra, Karnataka, Tamil Nadu, Telangana, West Bengal, Kerala, Madhya Pradesh — covering Enrolment Certificate (own PT), Registration Certificate (employer PT), AGILE-PRO bundling and monthly / quarterly remittance.
Professional Tax (PT) is a State-level levy on income from salaries, trades, callings and professions imposed under Article 276 of the Constitution of India, with a constitutional cap of ₹2,500 per person per annum. Unlike GST or income tax, PT is not pan-India — only certain States levy it. By FY 2026-27 the PT-levying States are Maharashtra, Karnataka, Tamil Nadu, Telangana, Andhra Pradesh, West Bengal, Kerala, Madhya Pradesh, Gujarat, Odisha, Assam, Tripura, Meghalaya, Manipur, Mizoram, Nagaland, Sikkim and Puducherry. States like Delhi, Haryana, Uttar Pradesh, Rajasthan, Punjab, Himachal Pradesh, Uttarakhand, Bihar, Jharkhand, Chhattisgarh, J&K and the rest of the North-East do not levy PT — registration is not required there.
Every employer in a PT-levying State has two parallel obligations. First, an Enrolment Certificate (EC) — sometimes called PTEC — for the employer's own professional tax (the employer / proprietor / company / LLP pays the slab amount on its own status, typically ₹2,500 per annum). Second, a Registration Certificate (RC) — sometimes called PTRC — to deduct PT from the salary of every employee earning above the State-specified threshold and remit it to the State Treasury monthly or quarterly. Missing either certificate is a routine reason for State Tax Department notices, late-fee penalties (typically ₹2 / day or higher per State rules) and, in repeat-default cases, prosecution under the State PT Act.
Legal Suvidha registers both certificates in every PT-levying State the client operates in, sets up the slab-based salary deduction in payroll, configures the monthly / quarterly return calendar, and bundles the application with company incorporation through the AGILE-PRO-S form — so a newly incorporated private limited company in Maharashtra, Karnataka or West Bengal walks out with PTEC, PTRC, EPFO, ESIC and bank account opened on day one.
Maharashtra, Karnataka, Tamil Nadu, Telangana, West Bengal, Kerala, MP — only PT-levying States targeted; no wasted filings in non-PT States.
Employer's own PT (Enrolment Certificate) and employee-deduction PT (Registration Certificate) registered in parallel — no half-done compliance.
For new private limited companies, PTEC + PTRC issued automatically alongside CIN, EPFO and ESIC in Maharashtra, Karnataka and West Bengal.
PT slab built into payroll software (Zoho / Keka / GreytHR); February ₹300 Maharashtra rule and State-specific slabs handled at month-close.
State-wise due dates calendared; remittance challans generated; annual return filed; late-fee penalties avoided.
Each State branch registered separately under the local PT Act; central payroll harmonised so cross-State employees are handled cleanly.
States of operation, employee headcount above threshold, principal place of business and branches identified; PT-levying States isolated.
PAN, Aadhaar, photographs, address proof, MOA / AOA / partnership deed / LLP agreement, employee list with salary, bank details assembled.
Maharashtra Form I / II, Karnataka Form 1, TN Form 1, WB Form V etc. filed online on the State PT portal; acknowledgement generated.
State PT department verifies application and documents; clarifications addressed; physical verification (where applicable) coordinated.
Enrolment Certificate (own PT) and Registration Certificate (employer PT) issued; certificates downloaded for display at place of business.
Slab built into payroll; monthly / quarterly remittance and annual return calendared; first return filed on time.
PAN of entity; PAN and Aadhaar of proprietor / partners / directors; passport-size photographs; authorisation letter; specimen signature
