Three inputs drive the calculation: team size, payslips run per month and offer letters issued per month. The premium offer toggle adds points for branding removal, e-signature and longer storage on those offer letters.
For Keka and greytHR, the calculator uses the published tier base and the per-employee rate beyond the included headcount band. For Offrd, it computes both subscription (₹50 per active employee per month) and pay-per-use (credit packs sized to your monthly document load) and shows the cheaper of the two when Auto mode is selected.
Numbers exclude GST. Promotions, custom enterprise pricing and regional discounts are not modelled. Verify on the vendor's pricing page before final commitment.
Two scenarios show the gap clearly. A 15 person team with 5 offer letters a month and 15 payslips runs about ₹750 per month on Offrd, where the same workload sits inside Keka's Foundation plan at ₹9,999. The Keka tier covers up to 100 employees, but the small team does not benefit from that headroom. A 60 person team gets a different picture, Offrd subscription costs ₹3,000 a month, greytHR's Essential at the same headcount is around ₹3,845, and Keka's Foundation still runs ₹9,999. As headcount rises, the gap narrows on the per employee subscription, but the flat tier vendors continue charging for unused headcount room until you cross into the next band.
The monthly invoice is one line item. The total cost of running HR software has more parts.
The calculator above only handles the visible monthly fee. The rest sits in the contract and the support email thread. Read both before you sign.
A short list HR and finance can run through with each vendor on the shortlist. Most of these answers belong in writing.
If a vendor will not put most of these in writing, the cost picture is not as clean as the homepage suggests.
On the subscription plan, ₹50 per active employee per month. For 20 employees that comes to ₹1,000 per month. If your monthly document usage is low, pay-per-use can come out cheaper. Auto mode shows whichever wins for your inputs.
Keka's Foundation plan starts at approximately ₹9,999 per month for up to 100 employees. Beyond that there is an additional per-employee charge. It is a flat monthly fee regardless of actual feature usage.
greytHR's Essential plan starts at approximately ₹3,495 per month for up to 50 employees. Beyond 50, the charge is approximately ₹35 per additional employee per month.
Subscription charges ₹50 per active employee per month and covers all features. Pay-per-use runs on credit packs you spend on payslips, offer letters and other documents. For low or irregular volume, pay-per-use is often cheaper.
