Frequently Asked Questions

Everything you need to know about Payroll Bharat

Yes! We support companies from 1 to 10,000+ employees on one simple plan — every feature included. You only pay for the people who are active each month, so it scales naturally as your team grows.

No catch. You pay per active employee per month — everything included, no feature locks, no setup fee, no hidden charges. Inactive employees are free, so you only pay for who actually worked. Start with a 14-day free trial, no credit card required, or book a demo and our team will walk you through a quote for your company.

Yes — there's a separate Daily Wages module built for site and contract labour. Workers are kept apart from your employee master: no login, no salary structure, just a per-day rate. Mark daily hazri by site, floor and trade, hand out kharchi/advances, then settle any date range you like — a week, a fortnight, or month-end. Wage slips, an Excel wage register, PF/ESIC on wages and site-wise cost reports all come out of it.

Separately from employees, and only when you actually pay them. Workers never count towards your employee billing. They run on a prepaid wallet, charged once for each unique worker you settle in a month — so a worker you didn't settle costs you nothing.

Absolutely. We use industry-standard encryption (AES-256), JWT authentication with 2FA, IP whitelisting, role-based access control, and complete audit logging. Your data is isolated per company — no cross-tenant access is possible.

All of them — PF (EPF Act), ESI (ESI Act 1948), Professional Tax (15+ states), TDS (Income Tax Act), NPS, LWF, Statutory Bonus, and Gratuity. We generate PF ECR files, ESIC challans, TDS 24Q FVU, Form 16, and more — ready to upload to government portals.

Yes! We provide Excel templates for bulk employee import. Upload your employee list, salary structures, and leave balances — our system validates and imports everything. Most companies complete migration in 1-2 days.

Yes. Our Branch module lets you set up offices across different states. Professional Tax is automatically calculated based on the employee's branch state — Maharashtra, Karnataka, Telangana, West Bengal, and 12+ other states are supported.

Simple 4-step process: Create payroll run → Process (auto-calculates salary, PF, ESI, PT, TDS, loan EMI for all employees) → Review & Approve → Mark as Paid. Payslips are auto-generated and emailed to employees.

Yes! Employees get a self-service portal to check-in/out, apply for leaves, view payslips, submit reimbursements, file IT declarations, and update their profile — all from the dashboard or mobile browser.

Yes. REST API access with 200+ endpoints, Webhook/Events API (22 event types with HMAC signing), and Tally XML export for accounting integration.

Yes. Every company starts with a 14-day free trial with every module included — no credit card required. Or book a demo and we will walk you through it on your own data first.
