Payroll software that handles PF, ESI, PT and TDS
SUTRA runs payroll from the days your people actually worked: attendance and approved leave flow in, statutory deductions are calculated from rate tables, and employees get their payslips without asking HR.
What you get
From attendance to payslip
Paid days come from attendance and approved leave, and are locked when the run is finalised so payslips always match.
Statutory deductions
PF, ESI, professional tax for the states that levy it, and TDS under the old and new regimes are calculated from versioned rate tables, not hard-coded numbers.
Salary structures
Define earnings and deductions once and assign them to employees; changes take effect from the date you choose.
Tax declarations
Employees submit their investment declarations, which feed the TDS calculation.
Payslips on self-service
Employees open and download their own payslips. Salary details are visible only to people with payroll permissions.
Finalised means final
A finalised run doesn't change; corrections go through arrears in a later run, so history stays trustworthy.

Frequently asked questions
- Are the statutory rates kept up to date?
- Rates live in dated rule tables, so a change is added with the date it starts and earlier months keep their old rates. Have your accountant confirm the rules for your business before your first live run.
- Does payroll need the attendance app?
- Payroll works best with attendance and leave switched on, because paid days come from them. Every app is included in the plan, so they're there when you need them.
- Can we correct a payslip after the run is finalised?
- Yes, through arrears in the next run. Finalised runs themselves are never edited, so your records stay consistent.
