27 August 2021 Employer's liability to deduct and pay tax on behalf of employees:
The tax payable under Professional Tax Act, by any person earning a salary or wage, shall be deducted by his employer form the salary or wage payable to such person, before such salary or wage is paid to him, and such employer shall, irrespective of whether such deduction has been made or not, when the salary or wage is paid to such persons, be liable to pay tax on behalf of all such persons.

Hence as per above provision we can draw a conclusion that professional tax will be levied when employer liable to payable/paid salary/wage.
