Overview

Professional Tax is a state-level tax on income earned from a profession, trade or employment. Employers must deduct it from employees and deposit it, and also pay it on the business itself, where the state levies it.

CorpRaasta obtains your Professional Tax Enrolment Certificate (PTEC) and Registration Certificate (PTRC) and sets up periodic PT payment so you stay compliant in your state.
