All Profession Tax RC Holders Enrol for PTRC e-Services before 31-12-2010

 

Sub : Procedure and instructions for E- Services enrolment/Registration for Profession Tax RC holders (PTRC)...

 

E-services initiative of the Sales Tax Department, especially of e-return filing and e-payment facility, is welcomed by all as it is simple, fast and reliable. Due to active and whole hearted support and co operation of all the concerned, Sales Tax Dept. could implement e-Services successfully for MVAT Act.

 

Considering this positive experience gained, the Dept. has now planned to extend and implement facility of e-return filing for Employers holding Registration Certificate (PTRC holders) under the Maharashtra State Tax on Professions, Trades, Callings and Employments Act 1975 (Profession Tax Act). Epayment for PTRC holders will be implemented shortly thereafter. Similar cooperation and support is expected for these e-Services from all the concerned.

 

A) As a preparation for commencing and actually using e-return and e-payment facility registration/enrolment for e-services by Profession Tax Registration certificate holders (PTRC holders) is required. In near future e-return will take place of physical paper return, in phases. Therefore all the employers paying Profession Tax are required to register/enroll themselves for PTRC e-services immediately and latest by 31st December 2010 to avoid last moment rush and inconvenience. This enrollment process is not meant for Profession Tax enrolment certificate holders (PTEC holders), but is only for PTRC holders.

 

B) System of new Tax Identification Numbers (TIN) is being implemented instead of Old Registration numbers for PTRC holders and also for PTEC holders since July 2007 for the purpose of compatibility with Computerized system of the Sales Tax Dept. of Govt. of Maharashtra (MAHAVIKAS) .

 

New Profession Tax TINs allotted to the Employers holding Profession Tax Registration certificate (PTRC holders) are 12 digit numbers starting with 27 and suffixed with “P”, for example 27123456789P. Similarly Profession Tax enrolment certificate holders (PTEC holders) are allotted 12 digit TINs starting with 99 and suffixed with ”P” for example 99123456789P. Therefore PTRC Tins and PTEC TINS can be identified easily.

 

Maharashtra Value Added Tax Act 2002(MVAT Act) provides for a single TIN for a dealer for all locations. However the Profession Tax Act provides for different Registration numbers for different locations to PTRC holders.

 

Further, while granting PTRC TIN to the employer who holds single PTRC and also holds MVAT TIN it is decided to allot him PTRC TIN of which first 11 digits are same as that of his MVAT TIN but with a change of suffix to ‘P’

 

It is decided to allot the employer who holds multiple PTRCs and also holds MVAT TIN, one PTRC TIN of which first 11 digits are same as of his VAT TIN with suffix ’P’. His other PTRC TINs will of course be different.

 

The employers registered on or after July 2007 are allotted such new TINs. However the PTRC holders registered prior to July 2007 are having old PTRC numbers. Hence it is decided to allot TINs to all such PTRC holders who are not holding 12 digits TINs through e-services registration/enrolment for PTRC. E-Services registration/enrolment of PTRC is required to ensure genuineness of employer availing e-Services for PTRC and also for communicating the user his proper PTRC TIN. After successful e-enrolment for PTRC e-services, old PTRC numbers with slashes should not be used. Therefore all the concerned are required to get enrolled immediately for PTRC e-Services online on the web site www.mahavat.gov.in . Please note that from 1st January 2011 onwards, all the treasuries and Banks will also be directed to accept payments and returns only with PTRC TIN.
