Quick Summary

For professional tax, if multiple GST registrations exist under the same PAN in the same state, PT liability may apply separately for each GSTIN depending on state rules. In some states payment can be made via GSTIN or EC, but confirmation from local PT department is advised.

If your business is located in Karnataka then you can either make payment using GST Number or PT EC

Gst number is pan based . While registering for professional tax the same thing applies.

I am from Odisha.I have applied for PT enrolment but it still in pending. Hence I asked to the PT officer for the activation of my PT enrolment but the officer said it will not active due to Govt allowed an option for paying the PT through GST number. My doubt is if a tax payer having multiple GST number in a same PAN in the same area then shuold he pay the PT through all the GST number one by one?
