Greetings,
I recently received a email from "cto150.bng @ ka.gov.in" subjected "Notice U/s 23/24 of KTPTC& E ACT, 1976 For Non Payment of Professional Tax."
I'm not sure on how to proceed. Any help/direction would be appreciated.
Thank you.
The email reads as follows:
Take notice that you have been registered under provision of Sec.5 of the
KTPTC & E Act 1976 and shall discharge the enrolment fee as prescribed in Form
4-A every year as per the provisions of the Act. On verification of it is noticed that
you have failed to discharge the enrolment tax for the year 2022-23 in time ( Please
verify your previous Payments & Returns dues also). In many of the cases, it is
found that the tax has been remitted, but failed to file returns in Form-4A online
within the stipulated period. It is also noticed that some of the dealers registered
under GST were paying tax through GSTIN and not in their already enrolled
registered numbers. This has resulted increase in defaulters under EC.
However, you are hereby called upon to file the yearly statement in
Form 4-A and pay the professional tax dues along with interest at 1.25% p.m. as
per section 11(3), and Penalty under Section 12. Failing which necessary action
deemed fit will be initiated as per the provisions of the Act.
