Guwahati is where Assam's commercial threads converge, logistics, retail, healthcare, and education all share space in a city that is growing faster than most small businesses can keep up with. Managing HR across a dispersed team is a quotidian drain on owners. Offrd centralizes attendance, payroll, and HR letters so your team runs clean and stays compliant.
An employee database underneath, with onboarding and offer letters above it, attendance and leave through the month, payroll and payslips at its end, then probation, confirmation, increment and separation letters.
Statutory ready: Shops and Establishments in Assam, with provident fund and ESI inside payroll.
Beltola, Six Mile, Maligaon, tracking staff in spreadsheets causes delays and disputes.
Offer letters, confirmations, and exits take too long without a proper system.
Manual deductions create compliance exposure. Small teams get it wrong more often than they realize.
What changes at the Kamrup Metropolitan district boundary and what does not, for an employer in Guwahati.

Twenty six weeks of paid leave for the first two children under the Maternity Benefit Act, 1961 as amended in 2017, and twelve weeks from the third child onward. Up to eight of those weeks can be taken before the expected date of delivery. Adoptive and commissioning mothers get twelve weeks in the circumstances the Act sets out.
The Act applies to establishments with ten or more employees, and entitlement needs eighty days of work with the employer in the twelve months before the expected date of delivery.
Most small employers in Guwahati lose candidates in the gap between a verbal yes and a written offer. The work itself is not hard. Someone opens last month letter, changes the name and the salary, forgets to change the joining date, and sends a document with another employee details buried in the footer. That is the common failure, and it is a template problem, not a people problem.
Generating the letter from stored company details removes the copy and paste step. The entity name, the signatory, the registered address, the standard clauses and the salary structure sit in one place. What changes per candidate is the name, the role and the numbers.
Yes, if they worked at least thirty days in the accounting year and were otherwise eligible. The bonus is proportionate to the days worked. Forgetting this is a common gap in full and final settlements, because the settlement is usually prepared months before the bonus is declared.
The practical fix is to flag eligible leavers at exit so the amount is paid when the bonus is declared rather than missed.

The Guwahati Regional Office is the parent EPFO office for Assam. It has jurisdiction over districts including Kamrup (Metro), Kamrup, and others. Divisional offices at Silchar, Bongaigaon, and Tezpur report to this office.
Assam's ESIC Regional Office is in Guwahati too. An employer crossing 10 eligible employees registers under ESI and files contributions every month.
