Professional Tax calculation is based on predetermined slabs and on the basis of the salary or monthly income levels. It is usually around Rs 200 a month, with the maximum payable in a year being Rs 2,500.

Professional tax paid by a company for itself is generally considered a deductible expense under the Income Tax Act in India. You can claim it as an expense while calculating the company's taxable income. However, it's essential to maintain proper records and documents to support the deduction.

The relevant section that allows you to claim professional tax as a business expense is Section 37 of the Income Tax Act, which deals with general deductions. Professional tax falls under the category of "taxes on profits" and is an allowable deduction.

Here's an excerpt from Section 37:

"Any expenditure (not being expenditure of the nature described in sections 30 to 36 and not being in the nature of capital expenditure or personal expenses of the assessee), laid out or expended wholly and exclusively for the purposes of the business or profession shall be allowed in computing the income chargeable under the head 'Profits and gains of business or profession.'"
