I am an MBBS. working on salary in a private firm (sole propprietorship) in mumbai, since 1999.

My employer has not deducted ANY professional tax from my salary for the entire duration...to date.

I have now recd a notice from the IT dept regarding nonpayment of professional tax...asking for an explanation.

whose liability is it to pay professional tax? Can i legally have my employer pay the penalty and interest...based on his noncompliance to rules?

what is the procedure? How much amount with interest will i have to pay in this regard...

I would be grateful if anybody can provide details on this.

Thank you very much

A branch of a leading Public Sector Bank has not uploaded TDS particulars in respect of depositors for Assessment Year 2011-12. Despite repeated requests from the depositor to do so, the branch is giving some excuse or the other for not doing so. My queries are as follows:
1. Is there a time limit within which the TDS particulars are to be uploaded?

2. What happens to the TDS claim of the depositor (who has been given the TDS certificate by the Bank in Form 16A) if the particlulars are uploaded after the time limit and/or after July 31, 2011? Note: The depositor will be filing his IT Return online.

3. Is there any remedy available to the depositor to compel the branch to upload the TDS particulars?
