Proffession tax legislation is a State subject on which laws are to be made by the Jurisdictional States subject to Constitution of India which stipulates a limitation of Rs 2500/- p.a. by any State.

Accordingly the Employee earning in Mumbai has to be guided by the Law applicable to Maharashtra.

So Employer having office in Mumbai has to register it-self in Mumbai and deduct Proffession Tax as per applicable provisions of Maharashtra Proffession Tax Act .

The deductions as per Karnataka Proffession Tax is not correct.
