10 June 2014 there is only one problem. Section 16(ii) refers to payment under clause 2 of article 276 of the Constitution.

now under clause 2 the limit is Rs 2,500 only. please refer

"Article 276(2) of the Constitution reads as under :

"276. (2) The total amount payable in respect of any one person to the State or to any one municipality, district board, local board or other local authority in the State by way of taxes on professions, trades, callings and employments shall not exceed two thousand and five hundred rupees per annum."
