Exemptions

Tripura's ₹7,500 exemption threshold is one of the lowest in the country, so professional tax reaches much further down the pay scale here than in Karnataka, where nothing is due below ₹25,000 a month. The ₹208 top rate uses the same twelve-month arithmetic as Assam, landing at ₹2,496 for the year.
