Payroll software for Indian SaaS and tech companies
A software team hires fast, pays well, and usually has nobody whose job is payroll. It sits with a founder or an ops lead - fine until the first EPFO notice, or the first engineer asks why take-home fell after a raise.

The deadlines do not move. The penalties compound.
A special-allowance-heavy CTC looks efficient until the wage definition is enforced. Then the PF shortfall is backdated across everyone you have hired.

The three things that break payroll at a fast-hiring tech company
CTC structures built to dodge PF
A large special allowance keeps PF down today and becomes a liability the moment the Code on Wages definition is enforced.
Salary structures that hold up
Build components once with the formula-based builder, apply them as salary groups, and model the wage definition before it is mandatory.
Regime questions every appraisal cycle
Engineers ask which tax regime suits them, and the answer differs per person. Working it out by hand does not scale.
Regime compared per employee
Old and new regime calculated side by side for each person, with monthly tax projected so nobody is surprised in March.
Nobody owns payroll
It sits with a founder alongside ten other things, so it runs late and gets checked rarely.
A run that takes an afternoon
Approve the numbers and payslips email themselves. ECR and ESI files come out ready to upload.
