Professional Tax & the Code on Wages

State-wise Professional Tax support plus wage-structure, minimum-wage, timely-payment, bonus and payroll compliance advisory.

Professional Tax (PT)

  • Employer enrolment and employee registration support
  • State-wise slab mapping for multi-location payrolls
  • Monthly or annual returns and challan/payment coordination
  • Assessment and notice-response support
  • Branch additions, amendments and closure formalities
Professional Tax is state-specific. Slabs, due dates, registrations and return formats differ by location, so compliance should be mapped for each operating state.

Code on Wages

  • Impact review of the statutory definition of wages
  • CTC and salary-structure compliance review
  • Minimum wages and timely-payment checks
  • Bonus eligibility, computation and records
  • Registers, wage slips, inspection and audit readiness
India’s four Labour Codes, including the Code on Wages, came into effect on 21 November 2025. Wage structures and payroll processes should therefore be reviewed against the current Code and applicable rules/notifications.
