Tusharji. Somewhere I read that there is a ceiling of Rs.2500 in a year and that is also the maximum deduction you are allowed for professional tax. Just check again.
There is also situation of people who live in Gujarat and do daily updown to Maharashtra (Palghar, Boisar etc.) Their profession tax goes to Maharashtra state. In Gujarat also they are getting demand from Municipalities to enrol and pay professional tax on their salaries. Normally if the employer deducts professional tax, to which state he has to pay, the state of employment or state of residence of employee.

Pradeep Agarwal sir that is exactly what has to happen as company has registration in Maharashtra and obviously they will pay in maharashtra. However can the Municipal Corporation in Gujarat also subject an employee to double taxation. Earlier states were levying these levies but nowadays it seems employees are harassed when working in a different municipality because their employers deposit the tax at the municipality where they are registered and not where they employee stays.
