Common questions
Which payroll software is best for a small Indian company?
It depends on what you need. Zoho Payroll is free for up to 10 employees. AiroHR charges per employee with no base fee, which suits small teams that also need attendance. Larger teams should compare quotes.
Which is the right choice if I want filing done for me?
Razorpay Payroll says it files and pays TDS, PF, PT and ESIC for you. AiroHR prepares the files, and your company uploads them.
Which suits factories and contract staff?
AiroHR is built for this, with contract staff by firm, duty-based pay and read-only logins for principal employers. The other companies' pages we read do not cover contract labour registers, so ask them directly.
Are these prices final?
No. They are list prices from public pages on 30 October 2026. Prices change, and your own quote may differ.
