Why teams switch

The best payroll management software knows manpower is different

Generic payroll tools assume one office and one salary structure. Contractors and staffing agencies run hundreds of workers across dozens of sites, each on a different wage rate, shift and client. ZeniaHR is built for exactly that. Payroll is one of ten modules inside ZeniaHR and shares the same worker record as attendance, leave, compliance and invoicing, so nothing is ever entered twice.

🧾

Muster to payslip

Site attendance flows straight into the salary run. Overtime, shift rates, leave and advances apply on their own, no re-keying.

⚖️

Statutory on autopilot

Employee and employer PF, ESI, professional tax by state and LWF are computed every run, with ECR and challan-ready outputs.

🏗️

Multi-site, multi-client

One payroll engine covers every site and client, each with its own wage rate and cost centre, reconciled in a single view.

📑

Compliance-ready registers

Wage register, muster roll, PF/ESI returns and Form registers generated on demand, in the format inspectors expect.

FAQ

Payroll software questions, answered

Which is the best payroll software for a manpower or staffing company in India?

ZeniaHR is built specifically for manpower and staffing firms: it runs payroll across multiple sites and clients from one muster, auto-computes PF, ESI, PT and LWF, and generates the statutory registers labour inspectors ask for. It is free for your first 100 workers.

Does ZeniaHR calculate PF, ESI, PT and LWF automatically?

Yes. Every salary run auto-computes employee and employer PF, ESI, professional tax by state, and labour welfare fund, and produces the ECR and challan-ready outputs so filing is a copy-paste, not a recalculation.

Is ZeniaHR cloud based?

Yes, ZeniaHR is cloud based, so supervisors mark attendance from any site on mobile and payroll is processed centrally. An on-premise, self-hosted deployment is available on request for firms that must keep data on their own infrastructure.

How does attendance become payroll?

Attendance captured at each site (mobile muster, biometric or geo-tagged punch) flows straight into the salary run. Overtime, shift rates, leave and advances are applied automatically, so a month that used to take days closes in minutes.

How much does ZeniaHR payroll cost?

It is free for up to 100 workers. Paid plans start at ₹25 per worker per month and fall to ₹12 at scale on yearly billing. See the pricing page for the full rate card.
