INTRODUCTION

What is Professional Tax Registration?

Business taxes are taxes levied by state governments on commercial enterprises. A person who earns income from salary or from a profession such as chartered accountants, company secretaries and solicitors is liable to employment tax. For the purpose of this registration, employers, employees, traders and others come on the registry.

This tax is deducted from the employer’s paycheck, which can then be deducted from the total taxable income. For a municipal corporation, employers and corporate owners get registration. The tax rate and registration process is different because this is a registration state. In addition, there are two other types of labels: PTEC and PTRC registration.
