Deduction of professional tax from income from salary

CAN ANY ONE TELL ME IF ASSESSEE IS GETTING SALARY FROM TWO EMPLOYER AND BOTH BOTH EMPLOYER IS DEDUCTING RS. 200 P.M AS PROFESSIONAL TAX .

SO, WHETHER ASSESSEE CAN GET DEDUCTION U/S 16 FOR TOTAL PROFESSIONAL TAX DEDUCTED I.E. RS.4800/- OR MAXIMUM DEDUCTION RS. 2500/-??

Max Deduction Rs. 2500/-

If employer has deducted and paid to govt then First Add 4800 in salary and then claim deduction under section 16(iii) of total tax deducted 4800

Actual amount of tax on employment or professional tax paid is allowed as deduction. If both of your employer has paid professional tax on your behalf, you have to include the amount in salary and then claim full deduction.

you can claim 4800
