Payroll and compliance

Payroll that already knows Indian law.

Attendance and leave flow straight into salary. PF, ESI, professional tax by state, LWF and TDS are applied for you, and every payslip lands on your letterhead.

A payroll run

Four steps, once a month.

Your HR team runs it. Edge HR does the arithmetic.

01

Attendance closes

Present days, leave, unpaid leave and late deductions are pulled in for every employee.

02

Salaries calculate

Each salary structure is applied, with PF, ESI, professional tax, LWF and TDS worked out.

03

HR reviews

Check totals, look at anyone flagged, add one-off bonuses or recoveries, then submit.

04

Payslips go out

Employees see payslips in their app. You download registers for filing and the salary sheet for the bank.

Compliance coverage

The deductions your CA checks first.

PF

Provident fund

The statutory 12%, voluntary top-ups, and the option to contribute on actual wages for higher earners.

ESI

Employees' State Insurance

Applied only to employees under the wage ceiling, with eligibility handled automatically.

PT

Professional tax by state

Each employee's work state decides the slab, so a team spread across Bengaluru, Hyderabad, Mumbai and Kolkata is deducted correctly.

LWF

Labour welfare fund

Monthly, half-yearly or yearly, on each state's own schedule, with employee and employer shares.

TDS

Income tax

Employees declare investments and compare the old and new regimes themselves. TDS is projected across the year.

Registers

Filing-ready reports

EPF, ESIC and LWF registers in the formats each authority expects, plus a salary register for your books.

Before you switch

One month side by side. Then you decide.

During setup, Edge HR runs a full month of payroll next to your current method. We compare every payslip, explain every difference, and you switch only when they match.

Included in the setup on every plan.
