Feature deep-dive · Payroll
Payroll that closes on the 30th. Form 16 by 15 June.
PF, ESI, PT, TDS, Form 16, Gratuity, Bonus Act, Factories-Act overtime — every Indian statutory regime that touches payroll, built in. No implementation tier. No per-feature add-ons. The boring acronyms that decide whether your engineers get paid on time, handled with the same care as the visual design.
01 · Salary structure
Heads that match your CA’s expectations.
Basic, HRA, special allowance, conveyance, LTA, medical, performance pay, variable bonus — pre-configured to match standard Indian salary-structure expectations. Reimbursements run separately from the CTC roll. PF, ESI, TDS, PT all derive from this structure automatically.
- Standard Indian heads pre-configured
- Per-employee customisation supported
- Reimbursements ≠ CTC roll
- Bulk salary revision workflow

02 · Attendance → payroll
The 09:14-attendance becomes the 30th-paycheque.

This is brand pillar 02 (“Every workflow connected”) shipped as a feature.
- Late marks → loss-of-pay calc
- Factories Act §59 OT auto-flagged
