To determine if you need to pay Professional Tax, let's break down the key points: -

*GSTIN and Business Registration*: You have a GSTIN from Karnataka, but your actual business is registered in Delhi. This implies you're selling goods across state lines.¹ -

*No Employees in Karnataka*: Since you don't have any employees in Karnataka, you might not be required to pay Professional Tax in that state.

- *Professional Tax Applicability*: Professional Tax is typically levied on employees and professionals by the state government where they work. However, as an e-commerce seller, your tax obligations might differ. Considering these factors, you're likely exempt from paying Professional Tax in Karnataka, given you don't have any employees there.

However, it's crucial to verify this with a tax professional or consultant to ensure compliance with all applicable tax laws. Additionally, you may want to explore the following: -

*Amazon's Tax Policies: Familiarize yourself with Amazon's tax policies and guidelines for sellers. -

GST Compliance*: Ensure you're meeting all GST compliance requirements, including filing returns and paying taxes on time. Please consult a tax expert to confirm your Professional Tax obligations and ensure you're meeting all necessary tax requirements.
