Not considered
Please refer any provision ?
Please be specific in query. it's ambiguous that's why.
Professional tax levied if income is more than basic limit
my question is how to calculate basic limit
when we read the act it says before allowing deduction under this act ,it means before deduction of professional tax
but income tax deductions can be claimed?

Assume it is profession Tax. It is paid monthly by employer and deducted from salary. For self employed , it is to be paid by themselves directly. Note it is a state tax and different in States.

Sir my question is about calculation of basic limit for professional tax
deductions are considered or not

The maximum amount of professional tax levied by a state is Rs. 2,500 which is allowed as a deduction from your salary.

The professional tax is deducted on gross salary. Do not take any deductions under consideration. 

As I understand, deduction towards PT is allowed to be reduced (i.e. not added back), but deductions u/s 80C to 80U are added back to the net income in order to arrive at the basic exemption limit.
But the wording of act says that tax levied on before deduction under this act means (professional tax)but deduction of income tax allowed
please correct me if am wrong

Who should file return of income?​

Every individual has to file the return of income if his total income (including income of any other person in respect of which he is assessable) without giving effect to the provisions of section 10(38), 10A, 10B or 10BA or 154 or 54B or 54D or 54EC or 54F or 54G or 54GA or 54GB Chapter VIA (i.e., deduction under section 80C to section 80U), exceeds the maximum amount which is not chargeable to tax i.e. exceeds the exemption limit.
