Start with the pain, not the features
Before comparing apps, write down the three things that hurt most right now — chasing attendance, calculating PF/ESI manually, sharing payslips on WhatsApp. The right system kills those three first, then earns the rest of its keep.
Five things any India-first HRMS must have
- GPS attendance — paper registers don't scale, and Excel never tells you who turned up where.
- Automated payroll with PF, ESI and TDS baked in.
- Self-service for employees — payslips, leave, declarations from a phone.
- Multi-company support if you run more than one entity.
- Mobile-first — your team is on Android, your HRMS should be too.
Where PayLap HRMS lands
PayLap HRMS is built around exactly these five — automated payroll runs, location-verified clock-ins, digital PDF payslips and an OTP login that means nobody forgets a password. It's free to download on iOS and Android.
