Provisions of Profession Tax are varying in different states. In Maharashtra Partnership Firm is not liable to hold ENROLLMENT CERTIFICATE and is not liable to pay profession Tax for carrying business. Partners of firm are liable to pay profession tax if the firm or branch is engaged in business in Maharashtra. Partnership firm or any person paying salary exceeding Rs. 5000/- to employees is under obligation to hold REGISTRATION CERTIFICATE under Profession Tax Act and has to deduct amt. of tax out of salary payable as tax to be deposited with State Govt.
