Payroll software

Payroll software for India that gets PF, ESI, PT and TDS right

Monthly payroll that starts from locked attendance and leave, applies your salary structures and dated statutory rules, and ends with payslips, a bank file and the files you upload to EPFO, ESIC and the tax portals.

Free for up to 5 employees · 14-day trial, no card needed

What WeHR payroll does

  • Salary structures and CTC

    Build components (Basic, DA, HRA, special allowance and your own), set structures and CTCs, and see each person’s monthly and yearly break-up — including employer PF, ESI and gratuity.

  • Attendance-linked pay

    Loss of pay comes from the locked attendance month, so absent and unpaid leave days are deducted the same way every time.

  • Statutory deductions

    Employee and employer PF (with the wage ceiling by month), ESI with the wage ceiling and contribution period, Professional Tax by work-location state, LWF and monthly TDS.

  • Income tax (TDS)

    Old and new regime, employee declarations, previous-employer income and a projection for the rest of the year, so monthly TDS stays even.

  • Arrears, increments and one-time pay

    Increments with effective dates, arrears, bonus and other one-time earnings and deductions, and loans and advances recovered in instalments.

  • Payslips and register

    Payslips employees can see in My space or on WhatsApp, a salary register in Excel, and a bank transfer file for the month.

  • Statutory files

    PF ECR text file, PF remittance and ESI challan sheets, ESI monthly upload file, PT and LWF summaries, and Form 138 working sheets for TDS returns.

  • Full & final

    Settlement for leavers with notice pay, leave encashment, gratuity and recoveries, worked out from the same rules.

How it works

  1. 1

    Lock attendance

    Settle absences and lock the month so payroll reads a fixed muster.

  2. 2

    Run and review

    Calculate payroll, look at the variances and warnings, and fix anything before approval.

  3. 3

    Approve and pay

    Approve the run, download the bank file and publish payslips.

  4. 4

    File

    Download the ECR, ESI and TDS files and pay the challans on the portals by the due dates.

What stays with you

  • Paying salaries and challans from your bank account — WeHR does not move money.
  • Uploading the ECR, ESI file and TDS returns on the government portals with your own login.
  • Checking the figures before you approve: WeHR shows warnings, but you sign off.

Questions

Which statutory deductions does WeHR calculate?

Provident Fund (employee and employer, including EPS and EDLI), ESI, Professional Tax by state, Labour Welfare Fund where it applies, and income tax (TDS) under the old and new regimes.

How does WeHR handle a change in PF or PT rates?

Statutory rates are stored with effective dates. When a government notification changes a rate, the WeHR team updates it once for every company, and payroll months already approved keep their figures.

Does WeHR file returns or pay challans for us?

No. WeHR prepares the files and challan details; you upload and pay on the EPFO, ESIC and income-tax portals with your own login. That keeps your credentials with you.

Can employees see their payslips on their phone?

Yes — in My space on any phone browser, and on WhatsApp if your company switches on the WhatsApp assistant.
