HR software in Haryana: state rules and city pages
Haryana employers get one of India's simplest payslips. No professional tax, EPF and ESI at the central rates, and a small Labour Welfare Fund line. Offrd builds those rules into every document a small company issues: offer letters, appointment letters, payslips, settlements. Rs 99 per document, or Rs 50 per employee per month, with attendance on the free Atndnz app. Below, the state's rules in one table, then a page for each of ten cities.
What does a Haryana employer deduct from salary?
| Item | Rate | Who handles it |
|---|---|---|
| Professional tax | Not levied in Haryana. A Haryana payslip has no PT deduction. | Nobody. The line does not exist here, unlike Maharashtra or Karnataka. |
| EPF | 12% employer and 12% employee, on wages up to the Rs 15,000 ceiling. | Offrd calculates it on every payslip. Your CA deposits and files the ECR. |
| ESI | 3.25% employer and 0.75% employee, for staff with gross pay up to Rs 21,000. | Offrd calculates it. Deposits and returns stay with your CA. |
| Labour Welfare Fund | 0.2% of salary, capped at Rs 35 from the employee. Employer pays double, capped at Rs 70. Monthly, since 1 January 2026. | Your CA deposits it with the Haryana Labour Department's welfare board. |
| Gratuity | Wages into 15 into years of service, divided by 26. Ceiling Rs 20 lakh. Fixed term staff qualify after one year under the labour codes. | Offrd applies the formula in settlements and payroll accrual. |
The labour codes, effective 21 November 2025 per the Ministry of Labour and Employment, also make written appointment letters compulsory for every employee. EPF details are with the EPFO.
Which cities do these pages cover?
Haryana is not one job market. A Gurgaon agency, a Faridabad fastener unit and a Karnal rice mill hire differently, pay differently and get audited differently. Each page below is written for its own city's economy, not copied from a template.
Gurugram
Getting offers out the same day in the NCR talent market, plus hybrid attendance.
Faridabad

Karnal

The full cost ledger: manual HR against Rs 99 a document.
Panipat
Buyer audits and wage records in the textile export belt.
Ambala
A year in the life of an instruments workshop on Offrd.

What does Offrd actually do?
Offer letters. Onboarding with Aadhaar, PAN and bank verification. Monthly payslips and payroll with the deductions above calculated. Attendance and simple leave through Atndnz. Probation confirmations, increment letters, separation letters and full and final settlements. A guided policy builder, POSH included. Form 16 at year end. AI resume screening through Pre-Hire. Left out on purpose: appraisal modules, expense claims, helpdesks and the other tabs small firms pay for and never open. More than 4,000 Indian companies in 350+ cities run on this scope, which the national HR software page covers beyond this state. Statutory filings stay with your CA, working from the EPF ready files Offrd gives him.
Haryana payroll questions, answered
Is professional tax really nil in Haryana?
Yes. Haryana does not levy professional tax, so a Haryana payslip has no PT line. If you also employ people in states that do, such as Maharashtra or Karnataka, Offrd applies those states' slabs to the staff based there.
What did the labour codes change for a small Haryana firm?
Three things bite most: a written appointment letter is mandatory for every employee, fixed term staff earn gratuity after one year, and Basic must carry at least half of total wages. All three are built into how Offrd generates documents and payroll.
Does Offrd file our EPF, ESI or LWF returns?
No, and it does not pretend to. Offrd computes payslips and hands your accountant EPF ready payroll files. Deposits and filings with EPFO, ESIC and the welfare board stay with him, done from numbers that match the payslips.
Our city is not one of the ten listed. Does Offrd work there?
Yes. The platform works anywhere in India and is used across 350+ cities. The ten pages simply cover Haryana's largest employer markets in their own terms.
What does it cost to start?
Nothing. Registration is free and brings 50 credits, enough to issue real letters or run a real onboarding. After that, Rs 99 per document or Rs 50 per active employee per month.
