How the software calculates the professional tax before last month’s salary processing? The professional tax is based on the salary earnings?

As per the Kerala Municipal Act, 1994, The professional tax in Kerala for the first half (April-September) of the year should be paid on or before August,31. Similarly, for the second half (October-March), the profession tax should be paid before the end of February. In case, the profession tax payment gets delayed, you will be liable to pay the penalty @1% per month. These are the rules of the government.

So how will the software help me to collect professional tax from my employees before processing the salary of September(as in the case of first half PT)?
