Enrolment of a Director in WB Profession Tax

I need to know - whether in West Bengal as per the West Bengal State Tax on Professions -  it is a requirement for a director of a Pvt Ltd company to obtain enrolment seperately and pay Profession Tax against enrolment yearly ? Profession tax is being deducted and paid every month against the director's salary to the Govt. So I specifically need to know whether he as a director has to apply as an individual, obtain enrolment and pay enrolment liability seperately Rs 2500 annually ?

Quick Summary
This discussion explores whether directors of private limited companies in West Bengal need to enrol separately and pay an annual Profession Tax of £2500, in addition to the tax already deducted from their salary. The query arises from official communications received by directors, prompting a need to understand the statutory requirements under the West Bengal State Tax on Professions Act.

I too have same query. Since very weirdly my company directors too received mail from WBCOMTAX asking to enrol on pay Ptax as individual and pay the same since company formed past 3years

Yes precisely this is the issue that I am facing and I do not know what to do. 

What are the details that you would like me to post ?

Mail copy attached as received by directors. Deleted confidential director data. 

This is the exact intimation that our director has received, he has received this in his official mail id, the contents are exactly the same. I wonder whether we are required to proceed accordingly, I need to be certain. But indeed if it is really a statutory requirement for a director to enrol seperately and hence apply individually in WB profession tax, then we would need to go through the process.   

But WB Ptax rules no where states enrolment of directors of the company separately and paying by them annually fixed 2500 pa
