Is the profession tax not applicable uniformly to the entire state of Tamil Nadu ? How can Tuticorin change the rates ?

Hi,
This is to inform that Profession tax is not applicable uniformly for the entire state of Tamil Nadu.
It will be fixed by the respective Corporations / Municipalities and it has to be remitted in the respective Corporations / Municipalities, where the branch office is located.

Thanks anyway,
I guess we will be able to understand the slabs and rates as it is given in English in a table form.
Can you confirm whether the tutitcorin post area (which was earlier out of municipal zone) and the other smaller settlements / villages nearby have to pay the same rate ?

Hi,
Not required.
It depends on the area, where your establishment is located, whether it comes Corporation or Municipality.
If your establishment comes under the Tuticorin corporation's limit, then you will have to remit the payment according to the new slab.
Since, we are unable to locate your office area, we will not be able to comment on this. Please check the coverage area and proceed.

Thanks.
We do not have an office there, just want to enhance my knowledge.
One last question : have all corporations and municipalities issued rates for professional tax ? Or is someone has not notified the same, is there a general rate that will apply ? Is it then possible that some employees may not be paying professional tax at all since their office is in a place not notified as such ?

Hi,
We came to know that all Corporations / Municipalities have revised the PT slab with effect from 1st Oct'13 (2013-14 (2)), across Tamil Nadu and we are in the process of collecting the relevant notifications from each Corporations / Municipalities.
Please note that there is no general rate of applicability to remit the PT. It is the responsibility of employer to verify the slab and deduct the payment from employees and to remit to the respective Corporations / municipalities.
You may feel free to write to us to the given e-mail id for any clarifications.
