PF, ESI & PT payroll software for Indian companies
Cloud payroll that calculates Provident Fund, ESI, Professional Tax and TDS, then gives you the PF ECR file, ESI report, PT report and bank transfer statement in one run.
Stop rebuilding PF and ESI in Excel every month
Most Indian SMEs still export attendance, mark LOP, then re-enter earnings so they can work out employee and employer PF, ESI, Professional Tax and TDS. One wrong UAN mapping or ESI wage limit and the EPFO or ESIC filing fails. VelHR keeps employee statutory IDs, attendance and salary structures in one place, so each payroll run produces correct deductions and the files you upload.
It is built for Indian rules, not adapted from a foreign product: PF at 12%, ESI for eligible wages, state Professional Tax slabs, and TDS on salary with payslips your staff can download.
Statutory outputs every payroll run
PF ECR for EPFO
Employee and employer PF calculated per worker, with an ECR file ready to upload on the EPFO portal.
ESI contribution report
ESI for eligible employees with a monthly contribution report for ESIC filing.
Professional Tax
PT deducted by the rules you set, with a PT report for the month.
TDS on salary
Income tax deduction on salary in the same run, with payslips that show the breakup.
Bank transfer statement
A salary payment file for your bank so net pay goes out without retyping.
Attendance to paid days
Biometric punches or CSV import become paid days and LOP that drive PF and ESI wages.

Frequently asked questions
Does VelHR generate the PF ECR file for EPFO?
Yes. Every payroll run produces the PF ECR file ready to upload on the EPFO portal, along with employee and employer PF contributions.
Does it create the ESI contribution report?
Yes. VelHR calculates ESI for eligible employees and produces a monthly ESI contribution report for filing.
Is Professional Tax and TDS included?
Yes. Professional Tax is deducted and reported by state rules you configure, and income tax (TDS) on salary is calculated in the same payroll run.
Do you file returns for us?
VelHR prepares the files and reports you need. Your team or consultant uploads them to the EPFO, ESIC and tax portals. We can walk you through the first filings during onboarding.
Will it work with our biometric attendance?
Yes. On Factory and Enterprise plans VelHR syncs live with eSSL and ZKTeco devices. On Starter you can import punch CSV files. Paid days and LOP from attendance feed straight into PF and ESI payroll.
