Is the state tax due shown next to federal tax due calculated without taking consideration of state tax already paid?

If you mean whether the calculations included the amount of tax withheld from your pay that were entered when you entered your W-2 box 17, yes, the state tax due took that into consideration, and apparently you still owe. There was not enough withheld to pay your state tax liability. But check the data entry you put in when you entered your W-2 to make sure you entered it correctly.

And if you paid estimated state taxes you must manually enter the payments in the "Estimates and Other Taxes Paid" section of TT.
