In March 2026, a manufacturing company in Pune with 62 employees received a Section 7A enquiry from the EPFO. The company’s PF filings had been accurate for years — on time, correct amounts, no defaults.

The owner of a 45-person logistics company in Gurgaon ran payroll on Excel for three years.

It worked fine until a senior employee’s salary was revised in January but the revision didn’t carry forward […]

A tech startup in Noida hired its sixth employee in March. The founder had been managing salary transfers manually — directly from the company current account every month, no payslips, no PF deductions, no TDS. It worked for five employees. With the sixth came a question nobody had asked before: “When do you register for […]
Choosing the right payroll services in Noida matters more than most companies realise. A 35-person IT company in Sector 62 was processing payroll in-house using a basic spreadsheet. The HR manager was competent but stretched thin across recruitment, onboarding, and operations. In January 2026, a routine check revealed that the company had been applying Delhi […]
An HR manager at a fast-growing IT startup in Koramangala, Bangalore, discovered a compliance problem in February 2026 that her team had been sitting on for three years.

A Delhi-based IT services company had been depositing ESIC contributions every month for two years without missing the ESIC payment due date — or so they thought. Their payroll ran on the 28th of each month, and the ESIC challan went out shortly after — typically on the 18th or 19th. Nobody flagged it. The […]
Let’s be honest: when you first started out with a couple of employees, a simple spreadsheet felt like enough.

Managing small company payroll services isn’t just about making sure everyone gets their money on […]

For many entrepreneurs, what starts as a simple “pay roll” task quickly turns into a midnight headache of tax slabs and labor laws. In India’s shifting regulatory landscape, finding […]
Payroll management in 2026 is no longer just about calculating salaries.
