Professional Tax

[Mantosh Singh]

My company is registered as PVT LTD company in Karnataka (Bangalore).

Recently we have received notice to pay the Professional tax with penalty and interest to the department. (Figures are as follows:- Tax under KTPTC & E Act Act, 1976 - 2500 Penalty @ 50% - 1250 Interest @ 1.25% per month - 250 Total:- 4000)

After doing some research, I got this website:- http://pt.kar.nic.in/(S(ynw3oxdsfly4uw1wae0lq3vu))/Main.aspx

Now I want to know the further process?

Do I need to register first to pay the tax and if yes than which option I have to select?
