Professional Tax - Employee Working In Other Cities

Sir
We are having employees who are working in five cities, like Delhi, Mumbai,
Kolkata, Bangalore & Hyderabad, but payroll for all our employees is processed
at Chennai. Kindly clarify the following.
1. Whether Chennai Corporation Profession Tax is applicable for other state
employees ?
2. If not applicable, Whether we need to deduct & remit professional tax applicable to those states ?

Pl. provide more details. Whether you have separate offices at different locations? If yes, whether you have obtained license/s under Shop & Establishment Act of the respective States ?
If you have your branch offices at different locations and registered under Shop & Establishment act or Factories act, you have to obtain the Enrollment and registration certificate under respective State's Profession Tax.

Professional tax is levied by Local Bodies from the residents practicing any profession and thereby earning income within their territorial jurisdiction. So, the professional tax due for Chennai Municipal Corporation need not be deducted from the employees of your branches elsewhere.
The P.T due to the place of work needs to be deducted and paid over to the respective Local Body by the concerned Pay Master or by the head office in case of centralised payment of salaries to all employees of the Company.

Hi Umakanthan.M
Our Company is Pune base Company and one of the employee is working from home (from Gujrat) since his appointment. We are paying Profession Tax under Maharashtra State Tax on Profession, Trade, Calling and Employment Act 1975.
Is it correct, or do we need to pay P.T. to Gujarat State
