HRMS & Payroll

Craftn Payroll

Every hour worked, every rupee paid.

Payroll is an employee operations platform, not a monthly salary run bolted onto a spreadsheet. Attendance flows into shifts, shifts into overtime, overtime into salary, and salary into PF, ESIC, PT and TDS — so the month closes because the work was already recorded, not because somebody spent three nights reconciling it. Ask it a question in plain English and it answers.

Modules

Everything the office needs,nothing it has to fight.

Employee Records

Personal, employment, salary, documents and assets in one file — offer letters, PAN and Aadhaar, bank and PF details, laptops and ID cards issued and recovered.

Attendance & Shifts

Biometric, GPS, geofence, QR, face, selfie or POS login. Grace time, half days, overtime, night and split shifts, with a visual roster and drag-and-drop swaps.

Payroll Engine

Basic, HRA, DA, incentives, tips, bonus and overtime against PF, ESIC, PT, TDS, loans and LOP — producing payslips, the salary register and a bank transfer sheet.

Compliance

PF, ESIC and professional tax filings, Form 16, bonus and gratuity registers, labour registers and minimum-wage alerts before the deadline, not after it.

Leave, Loans & Expenses

Casual, sick, earned and comp-off balances with multi-level approval; salary advances that deduct themselves in instalments; reimbursements that land in the next payroll.

AI HR Assistant

“Generate July payroll.” “Show employees late more than five times.” “Which branch has the highest absenteeism?” — asked in plain language, answered against your live data.

Run the numbers per student. A legacy ERP at even ₹10 per student a month works out to ₹1,20,000 a year for a 1,000-student school — and it grows with every new admission. The School plan stays flat at ₹54,999 for up to 1,000 students. You save over ₹65,000 a year, with a bill that never moves as you grow.

Payroll for ninety kitchen and floor staff used to take my accountant four days and still came back with corrections. It now closes in an afternoon, and the validator catches the mistakes before I sign anything.
IQImran QureshiOwner, Zaffran Dining, Bhopal
Split shifts and daily-wage staff broke every payroll tool we tried. This one was built expecting them, and overtime finally computes the way we actually pay it.
KRKavita RathoreOperations Head, Aranya Resorts
PF and ESIC deadlines used to arrive by surprise. Now the reminder comes first and the register is already assembled when it does.
