If the Professional Tax is paid by the Assessee, then, it can be deducted from the assessee's gross salary.On the other hand, if the Professional Tax is paid by the employer, then, such amount will first be included as a perquisite in the salary component of the assessee and then it will be shown as deduction from the assesse's gross salary.
