The professional tax rates differs from State to State. It is a State tax. There is no web site for it which covers all the states rates.

Karnataka:
Employees whose monthly salaries or Number of Rate of Tax Cess Amount of Tax
wages or both are employees per month Deducted
A. Rs.3,000/- to Rs.4,999/- Rs. 30.00
B. Rs.5,000/- to Rs.7,999/- Rs. 60.00
C. Rs.8,000/- to Rs.9,999/- Rs.100.00
D. Rs.10,000/- to Rs.14,999/- Rs.150.00
H. Rs.15,000/- & Above Rs.200.00

Professional Tax in Tamil nadu. (Yearly two times= Tax once in 6 months)

6 months income (Rs.)---- Tax (Rs)
21,001 – 30,000 ----------------- 75
30,001 – 45,000 ----------------- 188
45,001 – 60,000 ----------------- 390
60,001 – 75,000 ----------------- 585
75,001 and above ----------------810

Based on budget tax changes & income tax changes also it will differ from state to state

Is the tax need to be deducted every month and paid half-yearly (in Tamil Nadu)?

Can anyone elaborate..?

Does it mean that Rs. 100*6= 600 need to be paid in Oct and April every year.?

Professional tax are imposed on the Incomes of professional peoples like C.A., Teacher/Lecturer, Lawyer, Doctor, Businessmen etc.

Regarding Income tax, so it  is imposed on the income of individuals or businesses.

Hi It is correct that it is a tax charged by the state government. It is nothing but a source of revenue to the government. As you know everyone earning the income more than the exempted income as per income tax pays the tax same way every government has defined the slabs their own. It is like that tax on your income. It is income based hence to know the amount of tax you have to refer the slabs defined by the government. To know the rates toy can refer the Sales tax sites of respective State Government. The logic is that you are doing a certain kind of vocation hence it the tax on the facility provided by the government. It is payable by every person even if you are a salaried person or in business. For the person that means person it is based on the income earned by him in the last year.

It is a tax charged by the state government and it varies from state to state. The employee has to pay the professional tax to the state government each month and need to submit the amount in the Local Municipality office by the employer.
