Your salary structure, PF and Professional Tax, pay that follows attendance, and payslips emailed as PDF in one click — without spreadsheets or re-typing.
Define Basic, HRA, allowances and deductions the way your company already pays — then set each employee's amounts, or bring them all in from Excel at once.
No hand-written formulas for statutory rules: PF and PT have calculators that know how they work.
Payslips are generated from attendance, previewed as the exact PDF, and emailed from your own address.
Pick the month and the columns, preview with totals, and download as Excel, PDF or CSV.
Payroll starts from two things you already have: your salary structure and your attendance. Each employee has monthly amounts against your salary heads — entered on their profile or imported from the spreadsheet you keep today. Attendance comes from self-service clock-in, from your biometric device's export, or from HR marking it.
When you generate a month, SetuWork works out days payable (calendar days minus loss-of-pay days — approved leave still counts as paid), pro-rates every head that should shrink with unpaid leave, and applies PF, Professional Tax and your own formulas. The result is frozen onto that month's payslip, so a later change to someone's structure never quietly rewrites a payslip already sent.
Changed a salary or corrected attendance after payroll ran? Refresh compares the whole payslip and keeps the old figures in history, or you can carry a correction into next month instead. With the audit log add-on, every step is recorded too.

Yes — companies with up to 10 people get the whole platform, payroll included, free. No card is needed to register.
Yes, with the payroll formula add-on switched on. Provident Fund is worked out from Basic with the ₹25,000 wage ceiling (from 17 September 2026), split into the employee deduction and the employer contribution (which counts towards CTC, not take-home pay). Professional Tax is set up by state: pick the states your staff work in and each state's current slabs are filled in — editable, with each employee paying by their own state and exemptions recorded with a reason.
Yes. Upload the sheet you already keep — one row per employee, one column per salary head. Columns match themselves by name, amounts like 1,20,000 or ₹ 25,000 are read as written, and a preview checks every row before anything is saved.
Generate one employee's payslip or the whole month's in one click, preview the exact PDF, and email it — individually, to a team, or to everyone. Employees can also download their own payslips any time.
Yes, with the payroll month lock add-on. A locked month's payslips can't be regenerated and its attendance can't be changed until an admin unlocks it with a reason. Locked payslips can still be downloaded and emailed exactly as they are.
PF and Professional Tax have built-in calculators. ESI, TDS or any other deduction or allowance is a salary head you define — a fixed amount, a formula (for example ESI only when an employee's "ESIC applicable" box is ticked), or a figure entered each month — so it appears on every payslip, in the salary sheet and in the ESI and TDS reports.
With the Reports add-on: salary register, a Standard & Actual payroll register, bank transfer sheet with reconciliation, payroll cost by month or team, CTC, PF contribution with the EPFO ECR file, Professional Tax pack, ESI, quarterly TDS on salary and Form 16 / Form 130 Part B — as Excel, PDF or CSV, with the columns you choose.
Free for teams up to 10 people — no card required.
