What is Professional Tax Filing?
Professional Tax Filing is the process of submission of required documents for tax payable by a person or the employer deducting a certain amount from employees to remit. One of the most common state laws affecting employees across the whole country is the one related to registration and payment of professional taxes. To carry out business activity professionally, any individual, trader, or commercial house has to complete PTEC (Enrollment) & PTRC (Registration) process as per their state law.
The timely filing not only shows the state tax department that you are compliant with the labor laws but also helps you avoid high-interest rates imposed on unpaid taxes at a rate of 1.25%-2%. As FOXTAX experts work with various businesses throughout the country on a daily basis to calculate and identify the correct slab for each employee, we do everything from calculating the correct slabs to preparing challans and then filing the final returns on state level web portals.

Professional Tax Return Filing Process by Foxtax
FOXTAX ensures that your PT return is filed correctly and efficiently with an organized and step-by-step PT filing return process, thereby giving you total assured accuracy:

Collection of Required Information & Documents:
Firstly we collect your professional tax registration information (PTEC / PTRC), monthly salary sheets, and records of employee's gross earnings during the period of filing which are necessary for preparing and filing.

Confirming through various slab-wise categories:
Next, we cross check the various employee's wages based upon the slab rates decided for each category in the local tax act e.g. in Karnataka, any employee making more than ₹25,000 per month is liable to pay ₹500 as professional tax monthly. In this way, we find the right tax amount, which is to be paid and collected by us.

Challan Generation
From this verified information, we will prepare the tax payment challans at state commercial tax (e-gate etc.) for your approval. A net salary can also be useful in confirming the amounts before submission.

Tax Computation and Payment
We cross-verify the total taxable amount including all monthly or half-yearly contributions without having any calculation mistakes.

Filing Returns Online
Once we receive the confirmation of payment, we will be filing PT returns (Form 5 or state equivalents) of yours online within legal due dates to avoid late fees payment.

Acknowledgement & Compliance Report
The return acknowledgment together with a short summary for your records is sent by us. We also extend the year-round assistance to the authorities department about your queries.
