Remember that these professional tax slabs are only applicable for salaried individuals and wage earners. Professionals need to follow a different set of professional tax payment slabs prescribed by their respective states. You can check the professional tax portal of the state where you are doing business and download the necessary forms to register yourself and make timely tax payments. Even though your monthly obligations may differ based on the nature of your profession, your annual professional tax obligation will not exceed Rs.2,500. However, unlike salaried individuals, you will need to take care of the paperwork yourself.
