In Tamilnadu, the professional tax law says, Govt. employees whose income derived from the revenue of the Govt. has to pay the Professionaltax @980/- for every half year. This clearly shows the employees of LIC, BSNL, SAIL, ONGC, etc. But the Commissioner of Thanjavur writes to Sr. Postmaster to deduct professional tax from the employees of Postal Department? Department of Posts in running into loss and the payment is derived from Consolidated Fund of India and not from the revenue, but the authorities are failing to apply their mind and insist on payment of professional tax by the employees of Department of POsts. How far it justifies?
