If an employee earns more than Rs 10000 as salary but for example in any given month say May he has earned only Rs 6500 as he was absent for few days.. So what amount of Professional tax should be taken into consideration for the month of May? It should be Rs 200 or Nil? (Maharashtra)... Thanks in advance :)

I have a doubt whether professional tax is to be deducted as per the salary slab of the employee? Or is it to be deducted on the amount of salary he has got for a particular month i.e he might have got less than his basic salary due to absenteeism ?

Dear Dhruvit,
As per Section 16(ii) it speaks about total amount payable in respect of any Person and hence it should be deducted on pro rata basis (ie on actual payable amount)
