Everything HR needs. Nothing they don't.
Built for every Indian business — schools, colleges, corporates, NGOs, startups, and manufacturing units — done fighting Excel. Not a stripped-down enterprise tool.
One-click payroll run
Enter attendance, click Run Payroll. Every employee computed in seconds — gross, deductions, net, contributions. Variance report flags anomalies before you finalize.
Auto payslips & bank file
PDF payslips with your org logo, auto-emailed to employees. Bank transfer file (HDFC / SBI / Axis / ICICI / Kotak / Yes Bank) ready to upload.
Full compliance output
EPF ECR (.txt), ESIC Excel, PT challan, Form 24Q TDS return, Form 26Q contractor TDS, Form 16 Part B PDF — all generated, per branch if needed.
Employee self-service
Employees download their own payslips, submit leaves, declare investments (Form 12BB), upload proofs, and check loan status — without calling HR.
Leave & attendance
CL/SL/EL/ML with monthly accrual, encashment, and half-day support. LWP tracking, leave approval flow. Attendance via Excel, biometric device, or mobile punch-in.
Multi-branch payroll
Run payroll per branch or across all branches at once. Separate PF establishment codes per location. Branch managers see only their employees — org admins see everything.
Reports & exports
Salary register, cost centre breakdown, headcount report, PF/ESI/wages registers (Form 12, 6-C, XVI), Bonus Act register, Tally & Zoho Books journal export.
Salary revision workflow
Raise salary change proposals with effective date, route through approval, and auto-compute arrears in the next payroll run. Full revision history per employee.
Device binding
Each employee registers one device for mobile punch-in. A new device is blocked pending HR approval. Prevents buddy punching without any hardware investment.
Loans & advances
Track salary loans and advance requests. EMI auto-deducted from payslip each month until fully recovered.
Bank-grade security
PAN, Aadhaar and bank account numbers encrypted at rest (AES-256). Role-based access — accountant sees different screens than HR manager.
Indian financial-year billing
April–March billing cycle aligned to the Indian financial year. Pay only for active employees each month. Full-time, part-time, contractual, and daily-wage staff — all handled.
Indian compliance. All of it.
Every statutory requirement handled correctly — so you're not worrying about a notice from EPFO at 11pm.

Why businesses switch from Excel
"Our factory has 140 workers across day and night shifts — permanent, contractual, and daily-wage. EPF, ESIC, and contractor TDS used to eat up a full week every month. Now the compliance files are ready on the 1st."
Operations Head, Garment Manufacturer
Tiruppur
"The Form 16 generation alone saved us ₹25,000 in CA fees last financial year. And employees download it themselves from the portal — no more calls to HR around March."
Finance Manager, IT Services Firm
Hyderabad
"We have teaching, non-teaching, and casual daily-wage staff — different PF rules for each. Payroll-IND handles all of it correctly without us configuring anything complex."
