What Professional Tax is
Professional Tax is a tax Indian state governments charge on professions, trades, callings and employment. There is no single national version of it. Each state runs its own Act, its own rate table and its own due dates, and quite a few states do not charge it at all.
Article 276(2) of the Constitution caps what any state or local authority can charge one person in Professional Tax at ₹2,500 a year, combined across every state and local body. The cap started at ₹250 a year and was raised to ₹2,500 by the Constitution (Sixtieth Amendment) Act, 1988. It hasn't moved since.
