who we do this for

Two very different starting points

first case

Your first hires

You are crossing the threshold where PF and ESI start to apply, and nobody has done this before. We set the payroll up and take the monthly close from the first cycle.

Registrations first

EPF and ESI registration for the establishment, and professional tax where your state asks for it. Done once, before the first payroll runs.

A salary structure that works

Basic, allowances and the components that decide PF liability, set up so the first pay-slip does not have to be corrected in month two.

Software, if you want it

We are a partner for both Zoho Payroll and Razorpay Payroll. If you would rather run on one of those, we set it up and operate it for you.

Pay-slips from month one

Proper pay-slips your team can show a bank or a landlord, not a figure transferred with no record behind it.

second case

A payroll already running

Someone is already doing this each month, usually alongside another job. We take the close over as it stands and keep the same pay dates.

No missed pay date

We take over between cycles. Your team is paid on the day they are used to being paid, in the first month and every month after.

Arrears sorted out

Late ECR filings, unpaid challans and mismatched UANs are common on handover. We tell you what we found and what it costs before we fix it.

Salary data stays private

Payroll is the one set of numbers your team should not see. Moving it outside the office is usually the point, not a side effect.

Year end without the scramble

24Q filed each quarter and Form 16 issued on time, because the data was right in April, not reconstructed in June.

how we work

We close the month. Onboarding depends on your plan.

Ours

Everything once the month is over

  • Payroll processing
  • Pay-slips
  • PF computation
  • ECR filing and challan
  • ESI contribution and challan
  • Professional tax
  • TDS on salary
  • Quarterly 24Q
  • Form 16
  • Full and final settlement
  • Payroll register
  • Reconciliation to the books

On the premium plan we add your new joiners on the EPFO and ESIC portals as well, so the whole cycle sits with us. Run in Zoho Payroll or Razorpay Payroll if you want the software — we are a partner for both and will set it up and operate it. If you would rather we simply ran the close without it, that works too.

Yours

On the starter plan

  • New employee on the EPFO portal
  • New employee on the ESIC portal
  • Attendance and leave for the month
  • Any variable pay or deduction

Portal onboarding has to happen the day someone joins, not at month end, and on the starter plan you are the one sitting there when they start. The portal records the date of joining, and a UAN or an ESIC number generated late leaves a gap nobody can close afterwards. Move to the premium plan, from ₹10,000 a month, and we take it over. Attendance and variable pay stay with you either way — only you know what your team actually worked.

what it costs

We charge for our time, not your headcount

the usual case
₹2,000 – ₹8,000a month + taxes

We close on a set rhythm

The payroll runs, the filings go out and the challans are paid. Where in the band you sit depends on how often we meet and how much of our week you hold.

  • Monthly close, on your pay date
  • PF, ESI and professional tax filed and paid
  • TDS on salary and quarterly 24Q
  • Form 16 at year end
  • You onboard joiners on the portal
when you need us close
From ₹10,000a month + taxes

An hour with you, every day

A daily connect for teams that change often — site or shift workers, heavy joining and leaving, or a payroll that has to answer questions the same day.

  • One hour a day, every working day
  • Everything in the band alongside
  • We onboard joiners on the portal for you
  • Same-day answers on settlements and arrears
  • Priority through the quarterly filing weeks

Why time and not headcount. Per-employee pricing punishes you for hiring and quietly rewards us for doing less. It also has nothing to do with the work: ten salaried staff on the same structure take less of our week than four with variable pay, arrears and a settlement. We price on the time we set aside for you, so the number holds as your team grows. Tell us how close you want us and we will give you the figure in writing before we start.

the questions we get asked

Common questions

Who adds a new employee on the EPFO and ESIC portals?

On the starter plan, you do. It has to be done the day they join, and you are the one sitting there when they start — the portals record the date of joining, so a UAN or ESIC number generated weeks later leaves a gap that cannot be closed retrospectively. On the premium plan we take that over and onboard your joiners ourselves. Everything after that point is ours on either plan: the contribution, the ECR, the challan and the filing.

When do PF and ESI start applying to us?

They are headcount and wage driven, and the thresholds are not the same for the two. Most businesses cross into one before the other, and the registration has to be in place before the first payroll that falls under it. Tell us your headcount and salary range and we will tell you where you stand rather than guess in a FAQ.

Do we have to use Zoho Payroll or Razorpay Payroll?

No. We are a partner for both and will set either up and run it for you if you want the software, with employee self-service and pay-slips your team can download themselves. If you would rather we just ran the monthly close without a payroll product, that is fine and costs less.

Can you take over mid-year?

Yes, and most handovers are mid-year. We need the payroll register to date, the last filed ECR and challans, and the TDS already deducted, so that Form 16 at year end covers the whole year rather than only the months we ran.

Who sees our salary data?

The people working on your payroll and the CA reviewing it. Not your own team, which is usually the reason payroll moves outside the office in the first place.

What happens when someone leaves?

We run the full and final settlement, close the contribution for the month, and mark the exit date. Withdrawal or transfer of the PF balance is the employee's own claim, made from their UAN, and we will tell them what to do rather than leave them to work it out.
