HRMS Software in Toronto
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 Toronto — Canada’s financial centre and largest real-estate market.
What applies in Toronto
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 Toronto 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 Toronto 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 Toronto
- 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.
- The statutory calculators follow INDIAN rules — gratuity, EPF, professional tax, HRA under Section 10(13A). They are not Canada formulas and should not be used as such.
Questions from Toronto
Does LekhaPro do HRMS in Toronto?
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 Toronto 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 Toronto?
They implement INDIAN statutory formulas, so treat them as Indian-rule calculators rather than Canada ones. The payslip generator is format-neutral and can be used anywhere; the gratuity, EPF, professional tax and HRA figures are India-specific and should not be applied to Canada employment law.
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.
