Delhi, Gurugram, Faridabad, Noida, Ghaziabad
HR and payroll software for Delhi NCR companies
200+ Delhi NCR companies run offer letters, payroll and attendance on Offrd. There is no professional tax in Delhi, Haryana or Uttar Pradesh, so an NCR payslip has no PT line. What differs between a Delhi office, a Gurugram office and a Noida office is Shops Act registration, the Labour Welfare Fund and the EPFO office, and this page sets each out. Credit packs from ₹99 for 10 credits, or ₹50 per active employee a month, for companies with up to 250 employees.
NCR is three states. This page puts Delhi, Haryana (Gurugram and Faridabad) and Uttar Pradesh (Noida and Ghaziabad) side by side on the five things an employer has to run, with the Labour Department offices and helpline for Delhi.
No card. Setup under 2 minutes. Credit packs from ₹99 for 10 credits, or ₹50 per active employee a month.

What changes between Delhi, Gurugram and Noida for an employer?
The same 30 person company owes different paperwork depending on which side of the NCR line its registered office sits. Professional tax is the one thing that does not change, because none of the three states levies it. The table has the Shops Act, welfare fund and office rules for each.
| Item | Delhi | Gurugram and Faridabad (Haryana) | Noida and Ghaziabad (Uttar Pradesh) |
|---|---|---|---|
| Professional tax | None | None | None |
| Shops and Establishments registration | Delhi Shops and Establishments Act 1954. Online on the Labour Department portal, free, issued on a real time basis, no physical inspection. | Haryana Shops and Commercial Establishments Act 1958 as amended in 2025: the Act applies to establishments with 20 or more workers, which register online within one month of starting. Under 20 workers file an online intimation and get a Basic Information Performa ID. Appointment letters with a photograph and identity cards are mandatory under the amendment. | UP Shops and Commercial Establishments Act 1962: apply to the Inspector within six months of starting, through the departmental web portal, registration granted within one day if complete, valid for the life of the establishment. |
| Labour Welfare Fund | Employee ₹0.75 and employer ₹2.25 per employee per half year, paid before 15 July and 15 January. | Employee 0.2 percent of salary capped at ₹35 a month, employer double that capped at ₹70, from 1 January 2026. | The UP Labour Welfare Fund Act 1965 leaves the contribution amounts and the covered establishment size to rules, and they were not readable on a government page when this was checked, so they are not printed here. |
| EPFO office | Five regional offices, Delhi East, West, Central, North and South, under the zonal office at Bhavishya Nidhi Bhawan, 28 Community Centre, Wazirpur Industrial Area, Delhi 110052. | Gurugram East and Gurugram West for Gurugram district, Faridabad for Faridabad and Palwal, under the Haryana zonal office at Sector 16A, Old Faridabad 121002. | Noida office for Gautam Buddh Nagar. Ghaziabad establishments sit under the Meerut office. |
| ESIC office | Regional Office Delhi. | Regional Office Faridabad, Panchdeep Bhawan, Sector 16, Faridabad 121002, for all of Haryana. Sub Regional Office Gurugram at Plot 47, Sector 34, for Gurugram, Nuh, Rewari and Mahendergarh. | ESIC Noida. |
EPF and ESI are the same everywhere: 12 percent each side on wages up to ₹25,000, and 0.75 and 3.25 percent on gross up to ₹21,000. Offrd works these out for every NCR payslip and gives your CA EPF export ready files for the office in the row above.

What does the Haryana 2025 Shops Act amendment mean for a Gurugram office?
The Haryana Shops and Commercial Establishments (Amendment) Bill 2025, passed by the Assembly to replace an Ordinance deemed in force from 12 November 2025, takes most establishments under 20 workers out of registration altogether. A 15 person Gurugram agency files an online intimation and gets a Basic Information Performa ID instead of a certificate. A 25 person Faridabad unit registers online within a month of starting, reports changes within seven days and closure within thirty.
The same amendment made a written appointment letter with the employee's photograph, and an identity card, mandatory in Haryana. Offrd generates the appointment letter, and the free employee database holds the employee record. Haryana Labour Welfare Fund moved to a percentage of salary from 1 January 2026, 0.2 percent from the employee capped at ₹35 and double from the employer capped at ₹70. It is a 10 hour day and 48 hour week under the amended Act.
For the full Gurugram and Faridabad treatment see the Gurugram page and the Faridabad page. Noida has its own page.
What does Offrd do for a Delhi NCR company?
Offrd is HR document and payroll software for Indian companies with up to 250 employees. You set up the company once, with its state, and the statutory lines follow from that. For an NCR company that means no professional tax line, and EPF files your CA uploads to the Delhi, Gurugram, Faridabad or Noida office. The Labour Welfare Fund differs by state, and the table above gives each rule.
- Offer and appointment letters. CTC, role and joining date go in, and the letter comes out with PF, ESI and, where the state levies it, professional tax worked out. The OSH Code 2020, in force from 21 November 2025, requires a written appointment letter, and the generator produces one. 10 credits a letter.
- Onboarding. The new hire fills a self serve form. Aadhaar and PAN are verified in real time. 15 credits.
- Payroll and payslips. An Excel style grid, with EPF at 12 percent each side on wages up to the ₹25,000 ceiling, ESI at 0.75 and 3.25 percent up to ₹21,000, and no professional tax line, because none of Delhi, Haryana or Uttar Pradesh levies it. 2 credits per payslip, and the first payslip for each employee is free. Your CA gets EPF export ready files. Offrd does not file returns.
- Attendance. The Atndnz app is free with Offrd: office QR check in, GPS check in within 500 metres for field staff, biometric sync, named shifts with grace periods.
- Exits. Relieving and experience letters, and a full and final settlement with 19 deduction heads and 13 payouts, built for the two working day final wage rule under the Code on Wages.
- Form 16. Offrd builds Part B from payroll and declarations, you upload Part A from TRACES, and Offrd combines and sends it. Needs the company TAN and PAN.
Pricing is the same in every city. Credit packs start at ₹99 for 10 credits and credits do not expire, or pay ₹50 per active employee a month with everything included. New accounts get 50 free credits, no card, enough for five offer letters. See the pricing page.
Questions Delhi NCR employers ask
Is there professional tax in Delhi NCR?
No. Delhi, Haryana and Uttar Pradesh do not levy professional tax, so a payslip for an office in Delhi, Gurugram, Faridabad, Noida or Ghaziabad has no professional tax line. Offrd leaves the line off when the company address is in any of the three.
Does a Gurugram office with 15 staff need Shops Act registration?
Not after the 2025 amendment to the Haryana Shops and Commercial Establishments Act, which applies the Act to establishments with 20 or more workers. An establishment under 20 files an online intimation and receives a Basic Information Performa ID. Establishments with 20 or more register online within one month of starting.
How does a Delhi company register under the Shops and Establishments Act?
Online through the Delhi Labour Department portal. The department lists the service as free of charge, issued on a real time basis, with no physical inspection for online registrations.
How much is the Labour Welfare Fund in Delhi, Haryana and Uttar Pradesh?
Delhi: ₹0.75 from the employee and ₹2.25 from the employer per employee per half year, paid before 15 July and 15 January. Haryana: 0.2 percent of salary from the employee capped at ₹35 a month and double from the employer capped at ₹70, from 1 January 2026. Uttar Pradesh: the Act sets the amounts in rules, which were not readable on a government page when this was checked, so confirm the current UP rule before you deduct.
Which EPFO office covers a company in Noida or Gurugram?
Noida establishments sit with the EPFO Noida office for Gautam Buddh Nagar. Gurugram has two offices, Gurugram East and Gurugram West. Faridabad and Palwal are with the Faridabad office. Delhi is split across five regional offices, East, West, Central, North and South, under the zonal office in Wazirpur Industrial Area. Ghaziabad is under the Meerut office. Offrd gives your CA EPF export ready files; Offrd does not file with EPFO.
What does Offrd cost for a 30 person NCR company?
On the subscription, ₹50 per active employee a month, so ₹1,500 a month with documents, payroll and attendance included. On pay as you go, credit packs start at ₹99 for 10 credits. An offer letter uses 10 credits, an onboarding 15, a payslip 2 per employee with the first payslip for each employee free. Credits do not expire. You start with 50 free credits, no card.
