Quick Summary
This discussion clarifies the difference between PTEC (Profession Tax Enrollment Certificate) and PTRC (Profession Tax Registration Certificate) rates. While initially thought to be the same, it's explained that PTEC is a flat annual fee of Rs. 2500 for directors and partners, payable once regardless of multiple directorships. PTRC, on the other hand, has slab-based rates for employees, varying based on salary and gender, with a maximum annual limit of Rs. 2500. It's also noted that profession tax is a state-specific tax and rates can differ across various regions.

Yes both are same rate
Okay...thanks
No both are different. one is on employees and another is on employer
What are the rate of PTEC??

. Profession Tax Enrollment Certificate – Rs.2500/- every year

2. Profession Tax Registration Certificate –

For Male Employees,

  • Drawing Gross Salary less than Rs.7500/- — NIL
  • Gross Salary Rs.7501/- to Rs.10,000/- — Rs.175/-
  • Gross Salary Rs.10,001/- and above — Rs.200/- (Rs.300 in month of February )

For Female Employees,

  • Drawing Gross Salary less than Rs.10,000/- — NIL
  • Gross Salary Rs.10,001/- and above — Rs.200/- (Rs.300 in month of February)

A maximum of Rs.2500/- is payable for the entire year and not more.

Further, a director, partner who is supposed to take enrollment certificate and pay Rs.2500/- is required to pay only once only and not for each company or firm in which he is a director and / or partner.

Same, for employees, if an employee is paying profession tax in one company he/she is not supposed to pay profession tax if he/she has a separate business or profession.

It means in case of PTEC, there is a flat rate
in case of PTRC , there is a slab rate but up to 2500/-
Yes you are right
Ok...thanks a lot to both of you

PT is a state tax and hence it is different in different state

PTEC registration/renewal charge is not at flat rate. It varies for different categories for different states.

PT under PTRC also varies from state to state. No single slab rate applicable even in this case.

Thank you so much ma'am..
