    mandatory for all individuals, persons and bodies
    who are liable to pay professional tax.
  • As to calculation and payment of these taxes
    through prescribed forms and methods, you have to
    do it yourself. Your calculation and payment has
    to be audited and certified by a Chartered
    Accountant.

    That is, apart from paying professional tax for
    its own activities, every employer has to
    calculate, deduct and pay the professional tax on
