The Problem

Challenges Businesses Face

These are the pain points our solution addresses.

Attendance is collected on registers or a biometric device that exports Excel, then payroll is calculated by hand every month with errors nobody finds until an employee complains.

Shift, overtime and contract-labour rules differ by department, and generic HR apps cannot express them without manual adjustments.

PF, ESI, professional tax and TDS follow state-specific rules and slabs; getting one wrong costs penalties and hours of rework.

Employees ask HR for payslips, leave balances and Form 16 on WhatsApp because there is no self-service.

Multi-site businesses have no single view of headcount, absenteeism and salary cost by site or department.

What payroll software must get right in India

Indian payroll is a compliance job before it is a calculation job. Provident fund contributions and the monthly ECR file, ESI for employees under the wage ceiling, professional tax slabs that differ by state, labour welfare fund in some states, TDS with employee declarations and Form 16 at year end, and bonus and gratuity registers. A factory in Gujarat with contract labour also needs contractor-wise attendance and wage records that survive an inspection.

On top of that sit the rules that are yours: shift patterns, overtime rates by department, late-mark policies, comp-offs, and how advances are recovered. Generic HR products handle the first list reasonably and the second list badly. A system built for your business handles both, because the rules are configured from your standing orders, not from a template.

Custom HRMS or a per-employee subscription

A subscription HR product works for an office of salaried staff with one shift, standard leave policy and no contract labour. Setup is quick and the per-employee fee is small at that size.

A custom build wins when you run shifts, overtime, multiple sites or contractors; when headcount is large enough that the per-employee fee has become a real cost; when attendance devices, an ERP or an accounting system need to connect; or when you want employee data, salary history and compliance records on your own server. For a 300-person factory, the subscription cost over three years typically exceeds a one-time build, and the workflow still does not match the shop floor.

How the build works

We start with your muster roll, one recent payroll cycle, your standing orders and a call with your compliance consultant. From that we configure the rules, list the devices and sites, and write a fixed-scope quote with a go-live month.

Attendance and leave go live first so the data starts accumulating, then payroll runs in parallel with your existing process for one cycle before you switch. Statutory files are checked against your consultant's filings in the first month. Employees get the self-service app on day one so HR stops answering payslip requests by hand.

You own the code and the database, and hosting is in your name.

Common Questions

Frequently Asked Questions

Everything you need to know about hrms & payroll software.

How much does HRMS and payroll software cost in India?

A custom system from JK Tech Hub starts at ₹80,000 for attendance, leave and payroll for a single site. Multi-site systems with contract labour, full statutory compliance and self-service are typically ₹2,00,000 to ₹5,00,000. Fixed quote, hosting is the only running cost.

Does it calculate PF, ESI, professional tax and TDS?

Yes. Contributions and deductions follow the rules and slabs for each state, the monthly ECR and ESI files are generated ready to upload, TDS uses employee declarations, and Form 16 is produced at year end.

Which biometric devices work with it?

Fingerprint and face-recognition devices from the common Indian brands connect over the network or through their export files. Field staff punch from a mobile app with GPS and geofencing. We test your specific devices before go-live.

Can it handle contract labour?

Yes. Contractors are masters with their own workers, attendance is captured contractor-wise, and wage and compliance registers are produced per contractor for inspections and billing.

Do employees get an app?

Yes. Employees see payslips, apply for leave, regularise attendance, submit tax declarations and download documents on a mobile app, or receive payslips and approvals on WhatsApp.

How long does implementation take?

Attendance and leave are usually live in three to five weeks. Payroll runs in parallel for one cycle and then switches over, so most businesses are fully live in two to three months.

Can it connect to our ERP or accounting software?

Yes. Salary journals post to your accounting package, and attendance and cost data flow to ERP or production systems where needed.

Do you serve businesses outside Gujarat?

Yes. Rajkot and Gujarat units get an in-person walk-through and on-site device setup. Businesses elsewhere in India get remote setup, screen-shared training and a call with their compliance consultant.
