What small business payroll must do

5 things a small business payroll system should do. We do all five.

Run payroll in minutes, compute statutory for you, publish payslips and Form 16, keep it affordable, and grow with you. 247HRM does all five from a single record, with no payroll expert on staff.

Run in minutes

Salary, attendance and arrears feed one calculation, so a full payroll run takes minutes instead of a stressful day each month.

Compute statutory

PF, ESI, PT and TDS are calculated automatically with challans and returns, so you stay compliant without specialist knowledge.

Payslips publish to self service each cycle and Form 16 is generated at year close, so employees get their documents on time.

The cost of doing payroll by hand

The hidden cost of payroll run on spreadsheets.

When salary sits in one sheet, attendance in another and statutory is worked out by hand each month, errors creep in and filings slip. For a small team with no payroll expert, one mistake can mean a notice. Here is the difference 247HRM makes.

Payroll by hand

Late nights, errors and penalty fear

What small business owners report when payroll runs on spreadsheets.

  • !
    A full dayEach month spent reconciling salary, attendance and deductions by hand.
  • !

  • !
    Penalty fearNo specialist on staff, so changing rates and due dates are a constant worry.
  • !

How it works

Payroll that lives where the HR data already is.

Three connections do the work: people in, attendance in, payroll and statutory out.

Re-enter every monthOne calculation

People and attendance, entered once.

Employee details and attendance feed a single payroll calculation. As part of Complete HRMS, the small business setup shares one employee record, so pay, deductions and statutory never drift apart cycle to cycle.

  • Employee details reused across HR, attendance and payroll
  • Attendance and leave update the payroll run in real time
  • Net pay recomputes when any input changes

Questions, answered

Your small business payroll questions, answered.

Do I need a payroll expert to run 247HRM?
No. 247HRM computes PF, ESI, PT and TDS for you and keeps the rates and rules current, so a small business owner or HR-of-one can run a full payroll cycle without specialist knowledge. Guided setup and support are included.
How long does a payroll run take?
For a small team, a full run takes minutes. Salary, attendance, leave and arrears feed one calculation, you review and approve, and net pay, deductions and statutory are computed together with checks before approval.
Are statutory filings like PF, ESI and TDS handled?
Yes. PF, ESI, PT and TDS are calculated from the same payroll run, with challans and returns prepared for filing. Form 16 and Form 24Q are generated from the same data at year close.
Will employees get payslips and Form 16 themselves?
Payslips publish to the mobile and web self service portal the moment payroll is approved, and Form 16 is available for download at year close, so employees get their documents without routing every request through you.
Is 247HRM affordable for a small business?
Pricing is per employee, so you pay for the team you have today. The cost fits a small business budget from day one and scales with the team rather than locking you into a large minimum.
What happens as we grow?
The same suite scales from 10 to 5,000 staff with no re-implementation, so you keep your setup and history as you hire. There is no need to switch tools or migrate data when the team grows.
