How can admin exclude employees from professional tax?

Created by Product Content Team, Modified on Thu, 19 Jun at 7:32 PM by Product Content Team


As per the Professional Tax (PT) Act, the directors of the companies are excluded from PT calculation. If the employee is the director of a company, you need to enable the option Is Director.
Professional tax is a tax levied by some state governments in India on individuals engaged in certain professions, trades, or employment. It is a state-level tax and the rates and rules can vary across states.


To enable the option Is Director, the admin must perform the following actions:

  1. From the greytHR Admin login, navigate to Employee > Information > Employee Profile. The Employee Profile page opens.
  2. In the Profile Information, click the Edit icon. The form opens.
  3. Select the Is Director option using the checkbox to enable the option. You can also select the Physically Challenged option to exclude him/her from PT if the employee is physically handicapped.
