Attendance and payroll software in Ludhiana
GPS check-in on your employees’ own phones, leave in a few taps, and salary with PF, ESI, PT and TDS calculated for you. For Ludhiana hosiery and knitwear units, cycle and auto-parts makers and hand tool factories. From ₹49 per employee per month plus GST.
Running attendance and payroll in Ludhiana
Ludhiana's hosiery and knitwear trade is seasonal: units add workers before winter and reduce later, so headcount changes sharply from month to month. Cycle, auto-parts and hand tool factories run steadier shifts but pay frequent advances that have to be recovered from salary. Punjab levies a tax on professions and employment, so employers here should check who it applies to and deduct it through payroll.
FundRaksha HR is one mobile app for employees and managers and one web console for HR. You set the rules once (shift timings, grace period, late marks, half days, week-offs, holidays and leave types) and the app applies them every day, so salary at month end follows the attendance record.
What Ludhiana employers use it for
- GPS attendance: check-in works only inside the radius you set for each office or factory, and each account is locked to one phone. See how GPS attendance works for field and office staff.
- Leave and loss of pay: balances, approvals and unpaid days flow into salary. See how per-day salary and LOP are calculated.
- PF and ESI: calculated on the Pro and Enterprise plans, with PF ECR and ESI files each month. See the PF rules and ESI rules for employers.
- Professional tax: Punjab levies professional tax. FundRaksha HR currently has slabs ready for Telangana, Andhra Pradesh, Maharashtra, Gujarat and West Bengal, so ask us during the trial how Punjab professional tax will be handled for your team. See professional tax by state.
- Payslips: a payslip PDF for every employee, with the breakdown visible in the app. See what a salary slip should show.

Questions from Ludhiana employers
What does attendance and payroll software cost for a business in Ludhiana?
FundRaksha HR is priced per active employee: Standard ₹49, Pro ₹79 and Enterprise ₹99 per employee per month, plus 18% GST. There is a 30-day free trial, and no hardware to buy because employees use their own Android phones.
Is professional tax deducted from salaries in Ludhiana?
Punjab levies professional tax. FundRaksha HR currently has slabs ready for Telangana, Andhra Pradesh, Maharashtra, Gujarat and West Bengal, so ask us during the trial how Punjab professional tax will be handled for your team. Slabs and rules change, so confirm the current position with the state or local authority.
Do PF and ESI apply to my Ludhiana business?
PF generally applies to establishments with 20 or more employees and ESI to those with 10 or more, for employees within the wage limits. These are central laws, so the rules are the same in every city. FundRaksha HR calculates PF, ESI, professional tax and TDS on the Pro and Enterprise plans.
How does GPS attendance work for office, factory and field staff?
You set each office or factory location and a radius, for example 150 m. Check-in works only inside that radius. Work-from-home and field staff can be allowed to check in from anywhere. Each account is locked to one phone, and location is read only at check-in and check-out, never in the background.
We already have a biometric machine. Can we keep it?
Yes, on the Enterprise plan. ZKTeco and eSSL devices can be connected, and their punches are combined with app check-ins in the same attendance record.
