How to Pay Maharashtra Professional Tax Online: Mahagst e-Challan Generation & Bank Netbanking

Online Payment Guide for Maharashtra Professional Tax (PTEC & PTRC)

The Government of Maharashtra has transitioned all commercial tax payments to the unified electronic portal of the Maharashtra Goods and Services Tax Department (mahagst.gov.in). Physical challan payments at bank counters have been completely phased out in favor of e-Challan payment in Form MTR-6 via GRAS (Government Receipt Accounting System) netbanking and UPI.

Every employer holding a PTRC TIN must deposit monthly employee deductions on or before the last day of the following calendar month. PTEC holders must deposit their annual ₹2,500 tax by 30th June.
