But  as this link below suggests https://www.indiafilings.com/learn/assam-professional-tax/, the handicapped employees will be refunded the entire PT amount deducted initially from their salaries in Assam, on filing their ITRs ?

Therefore once professional tax is paid, there can be no refund. There is generally no refund mechanism under professional tax. However, if the payment is made inadvertently then the professional tax act of the particular state shall mention the way to get it.

No refund of professional tax will be allowed here. Professional tax once deducted and paid by the employer on the salary is not allowed to be refunded.  

However, if the employer has deducted any TDS then that can be refunded by filing of Income Tax Return.
