HRMS Software in Kolkata
LekhaPro does not do HRMS. It is the accounting and operations system that sits beside your HR software — and it ships free HR calculators anyone can use. For a HR team in Kolkata — eastern India’s trading and distribution gateway.
What applies in Kolkata
LekhaPro does not have an HRMS module — no employee master, no leave or attendance, no appraisals. That is worth saying before you read any further, because this page ranks for a search LekhaPro does not answer.
What LekhaPro is, in Kolkata and everywhere else, is the accounting and operations system underneath the business — sales, purchase, inventory, projects, service and the ledger. Staff cost reaches it the way every other cost does: as an expense voucher, posted and reportable.
Around that gap there are things you can genuinely use today, free and without an account: a payslip generator that runs entirely in your browser, and calculators for gratuity, EPF, leave encashment, in-hand salary and HRA exemption. They are calculators, not a payroll system, and they are listed below so you can judge that for yourself.
What a HR team in Kolkata gets
- A free payslip generator — earnings, deductions and net pay, in your browser
- Gratuity, EPF and leave-encashment calculators
- In-hand salary and HRA exemption calculators
- Staff cost posted as ordinary expense vouchers, into real double-entry books
- Travel and expense claims with policy checks and approvals
Every capability above is the same one described on the HRMS feature page — this page adds where it applies, not what it does. Compare the Desktop and Cloud editions, or see pricing.
What it does not do in Kolkata
- LekhaPro does not have an HRMS module — no employee master, no leave or attendance, no appraisals. If that is what you are shopping for, LekhaPro is not it, and no roadmap date is being implied here.
- No employee master, leave, attendance, shifts, appraisals or onboarding. None of it exists in the product.
- Form 24Q — TDS on salary — cannot be filed, because salary TDS needs payroll data the product does not hold. Non-salary TDS (26Q) is supported.
- The calculators are estimates, and say so individually. The EPF projection ignores the EPS split and the ₹15,000 wage ceiling.
Questions from Kolkata
Does LekhaPro do HRMS in Kolkata?
No. LekhaPro does not have an HRMS module — no employee master, no leave or attendance, no appraisals. There is no employee master, no leave or attendance, no pay run and no salary register — not in Kolkata and not in any other market. This page exists because people search for it and deserve a straight answer rather than a maybe.
What can I actually use, then?
A free payslip generator that runs entirely in your browser with nothing uploaded, and calculators for gratuity, EPF, leave encashment, in-hand salary and HRA exemption. Beyond that, LekhaPro is a full accounting and operations system — so the salary your payroll provider computes posts into it as an expense and appears in your P&L, cash flow and books like any other cost.
Can LekhaPro file Form 24Q / salary TDS?
No. Salary TDS needs payroll data the product does not hold, so Form 24Q is explicitly unsupported. TDS on non-salary payments — Form 26Q — is supported and filed normally.
Are the calculators valid in Kolkata?
Yes — they implement Indian statutory formulas: gratuity at 15 days per completed year capped at ₹20 lakh, EPF at 12% employee and employer, HRA under Section 10(13A). Each states its own simplifications.
Is payroll on the roadmap?
No date is being committed to here. `packages/core` records payroll as deliberately out of scope, and the honest position is that you should choose LekhaPro for what it does today — the ledger, the operations and the compliance it actually implements — not for something it might add.
