I am Having a doubt regarding the Profession Tax registration for our newely incorporated company and for our employees can any body help inthis regard. Our Company is incorporated in Andhra pradesh.

23 December 2010

As per section 16(iii) of Income tax act Professional tax on employment or tax on employment levied by state under article 276(2) of the Constitution is allowed as a deduction from the Salary income.

Profession tax should have been paid by the Employee then only he is eligible to get deduction of the same.If he has not paid the same then no deduction is allowed

Professional Tax in India Professional tax is levied by the State.

Professional tax rates applicable in Andhra Pradesh on Salary & Wages is
Wages per month in up to Rs. 5,000 --- Tax Nil
Rs. 5001 to 6000 --- Tax Rs. 60
Rs. 6001 to 10000 --- Tax Rs. 80
Rs. 10001 to 15000 -- Tax 100
Rs. 15001 to 20000 --- Tax 150
Rs. 20000 and above --- Tax 200

23 December 2010 Sir I am conderned regarding the Registration process and the fillingup of Form I & II as required by Ap commercial act. Where to submit these documents? As the fee as in the Act is only Rs.110. where as one of our consultant is asking that Rs.3500. As he is arguing that "some bribe is to be given to some of the authorities for ease and fast registration otherwise it will not be possible to get the registration"... Please help me in this regard....
