HRMS & Payroll Software

Attendance to payslip, with statutory filings that reconcile

Payroll is unforgiving: it runs monthly, it is visible to everyone, and an error is remembered for a year. Most of the pain is not the calculation but the reconciliation — biometric data in one place, leave approvals in another, reimbursements on paper, and statutory deductions computed afterwards. This keeps the whole chain in one system, so the payslip is derived from attendance and leave that were already approved, and PF, ESI and TDS come out of the same run rather than being assembled separately.

What is included

Every module, included in the licence

No per-module upsell and no feature gating. You get the complete system.

01

Attendance

Biometric, mobile geo-fenced punch, or web check-in, with shift rosters, overtime rules and regularisation requests.

02

Leave management

Policy-driven accrual, carry-forward and encashment, approval chains, and a team calendar that prevents clashing approvals.

03

Payroll processing

Salary structures with any combination of components, arrears, LOP handling, and a locked run with a full audit trail.

04

Statutory compliance

PF, ESI, Professional Tax, LWF and TDS computed in the run, with challan and return-ready outputs.

05

Income tax declarations

Employee investment declarations, proof submission and verification, with automatic recalculation of monthly TDS.

06

Reimbursements

Claim submission with receipt upload, policy limit enforcement, approval, and payout inside the salary run or separately.

07

Employee self-service

Payslips, tax statements, leave balance and applications on a phone app — this alone removes most routine HR queries.

08

Onboarding & exit

Document collection, asset allocation, probation tracking, and full-and-final settlement calculation on exit.

Plans

Pick the size that fits

Every limit is published here rather than buried in a contract. Adding users inside your tier costs nothing; past the Business limits we quote against your real usage instead of guessing.

What happens if you outgrow a plan

Nothing breaks and nothing is cut off. We flag it when you are consistently near a limit, and you either move up a tier or, past the Business limits, we scope an Enterprise plan against your real usage. We would rather quote you properly than serve you at a loss and then renegotiate — so heavy users are priced honestly from the start.

Questions

Frequently asked

Does it generate the actual PF and ESI files?
Yes. The EPF ECR text file and the ESI contribution file are generated in the exact formats the portals accept, so it is an upload rather than a re-keying exercise.
Can it handle employees across several states?
Yes. Professional Tax, Labour Welfare Fund and minimum wage rules vary by state and are configured per location. Employees transferring between states are handled mid-year.
What about Form 16?
Form 16 Part B is generated from the payroll data at year end. Part A comes from TRACES after your TDS returns are filed, and the system produces the Form 24Q data those returns need.
We have more than 500 employees.
The standard plan covers up to 500. Beyond that there is a step up in the monthly rate rather than a per-employee charge, so cost does not scale linearly with headcount. The system has been tested well past 5,000.
