What does HR software cost in Mysuru?
For a Mysuru company, Offrd costs Rs 99 per document if you only generate paperwork occasionally, or Rs 50 per active employee per month if you want everything running monthly. A 25 person firm on the subscription pays Rs 1,250 a month. Signup is free and includes 50 credits, so the first offer letter and payslip cost nothing.
Most pricing pages hide the number behind a form. This one does not. Below are the two ways Offrd charges, worked out at the headcounts a Mysuru company actually sits at, plus the arithmetic for deciding which one is cheaper for you.
How much is HR software for a 25 person company?
Rs 1,250 a month on the subscription plan, which is Rs 50 for each of the 25 active employees. That covers payslips with EPF, ESI and Karnataka professional tax computed, attendance, leave, offer and appointment letters, confirmation and increment letters, policies, and exit paperwork. There is no setup fee and no implementation phase.
The same 25 person firm on pay per document pays Rs 99 each time it generates something. If it hires four people a year and generates payslips only for the six staff who ask for them, the annual bill lands well under the subscription. If it runs payslips for all 25 every month, the subscription wins easily. The break even is roughly 12 or 13 documents a month.
The calculator applies the published rates. It does not account for months where you generate nothing, which is exactly when the pay per document plan pulls ahead.
Which offices handle HR compliance for a business in Mysuru?
A business in Mysuru answers to Karnataka for some of this and to central law for the rest. Mysuru district is the district for the local part.
Verify before you act. Office addresses, jurisdictions and rates change, sometimes without a public notice. Check the office with the department before you visit it, and put the compliance question to your chartered accountant or a labour law adviser. None of this is legal or tax advice. Offrd has no connection to the offices named and does not represent them. Checked 12 September 2026. Spot something out of date? Tell us at service@offrd.co.
What does Mysuru's employer base actually look like?
Mysuru's registered SSI base was measured at 916 units in the last MSME-DI district profile, smaller than Bengaluru's but anchored by a handful of large public and private employers rather than one dominant cluster.
BEML and the ancillary units around it sit at the centre of this cluster.
Karnataka Silk Industries Corporation (KSIC) is a named employer here; the wider hand weaving reputation of the city is well known locally but was not confirmed against a government source, so it is left out.
TVS Motor and the component suppliers around it form a working auto ancillary base.
Nestle's Mysuru unit is one of the larger named food processing employers in the district profile.
Offices a Mysuru employer deals with
First point of contact for MSME registration (Udyam) and district level incentive schemes.
DIC Mysuru, via MSME-DIShops and establishment registration and labour compliance for the state.
Karmika Mitra portalProfessional tax is collected at the state level here, flat Rs 200 a month, not by the municipal corporation.
Karnataka Commercial TaxesTrade licence and local property tax for units operating inside corporation limits.
Confirm this before you rely on it. Mysuru's SSI count is from the 2010-11 MSME-DI district profile, the most recent full one found. Sandalwood, agarbatti and silk weaving are widely repeated as Mysuru specialities, but no .gov.in or .nic.in source was found to confirm current scale, so those claims are left out here rather than stated as fact. Office addresses and contact details can change on a notification you will not see. Verify the office and its current jurisdiction before you act on it, and take advice from your chartered accountant or labour law adviser. None of this is legal or tax advice. Offrd has no connection to the offices named and does not represent them. Checked 12 September 2026. Spot something out of date? Tell us at service@offrd.co.
When does Form 16 have to be issued?
By 15 June following the end of the financial year, under section 203 of the Income Tax Act, 1961. It covers 1 April to 31 March. Part A comes from the TRACES portal and carries the quarter wise summary of tax deposited. Part B carries the salary breakup, the exemptions claimed and the deductions under Chapter VI A.
An employer who deducted no tax because salary fell below the exemption limit is not obliged to issue it, though many do because employees ask.
Is a notice period enforceable in India?
The clause itself is binding, because a signed appointment letter is a contract under the Indian Contract Act, 1872. What no Indian court will do is order a person back to work. Enforcement runs through money, usually recovery of pay for the unserved days through the full and final settlement.
That is why the deduction authority in the appointment letter matters. Without it, recovering notice pay from the settlement is harder than it needs to be.
Frequently asked questions
What district does Mysuru fall under?
Mysuru is in Mysuru. The district matters because the labour office, and in a few states the professional tax authority, are district level appointments.
Who collects professional tax from a Mysuru employer?
Profession Tax Officer / Assistant Commissioner of Profession Tax / Deputy Commissioner of Profession Tax (the "assessing authority" under section 2(b)), under the Commissioner of Profession Tax, Government of Karnataka.
What does an employee who changed jobs mid year receive?
A separate Form 16 from each employer for the part of the year worked there. Both are needed to file the return, and the second employer can only compute tax correctly if the employee declares the earlier income.
What does a Mysuru company spend on HR paperwork today?
Usually more than it thinks, in two places. The first is the consultant or advocate who drafts letters, commonly Rs 500 to Rs 2,000 for an offer letter or a settlement statement. The second is the time an accountant spends rebuilding last month's payslip in Excel, which nobody puts a rupee value on because it is salaried time.
Mysuru's mix makes this awkward. The IT and BPO offices here hire in batches and need letters out fast. The hotels and hospitality side runs shift staff whose attendance has to be defensible. The silk and manufacturing units carry long serving employees whose gratuity someone eventually has to compute. Three different rhythms, one accountant, one spreadsheet.
What is included in the price, and what is not?
| Included | Not included |
|---|---|
| Offer and appointment letters | Depositing EPF, ESI or professional tax with the department |
| Payslips with EPF, ESI, PT and gratuity logic | Filing 24Q with TRACES or the ECR with EPFO |
| Onboarding with document collection | Performance reviews, OKRs and 360 feedback |
| Attendance and leave, including QR and GPS check in | Expense claims, helpdesk and asset registers |
| Confirmation, increment, transfer and relieving letters | Career pages and job board posting |
| Policy builder including POSH and leave | Salary disbursal from a bank account |
| Full and final settlement | Multi level approval chains |
The right hand column is deliberate. Your CA handles the deposits and returns, and Offrd hands the CA clean data to work from. See the statutory compliance guide for what falls where.
What are the statutory numbers behind a Mysuru payslip?
EPF is 12% from the employee and 12% from the employer, with the Rs 15,000 wage ceiling. ESI is 0.75% from the employee and 3.25% from the employer where gross wages are within Rs 21,000 a month. Karnataka professional tax is nil below Rs 25,000 of monthly gross, and Rs 200 a month at Rs 25,000 and above. Gratuity works out as wages multiplied by 15, multiplied by years of service, divided by 26, and the statutory ceiling is Rs 20 lakh.
Offrd applies all of that at the point the payslip is generated, so nobody is copying last month's formula across. If you want to check a figure by hand first, the PF calculator, the ESI calculator and the gratuity calculator are free and need no login.
Other cities in the state are on the Karnataka hub, and Bengaluru has its own page at HR software for Bengaluru SMEs.
Every rate quoted above comes from a government source rather than a summary site: Karnataka professional tax schedule, EPF rate and wage ceiling, PIB, ESI contribution rates, ESIC, ESI coverage wage limit, ESIC, Payment of Gratuity Act 1972, Section 4, Rs 20 lakh gratuity ceiling, PIB. Rates are revised from time to time, so check anything you are acting on with your accountant.
Cost questions Mysuru employers ask
Is there a minimum monthly charge?
No. On the pay per document plan you are charged only when you generate something. A firm that hires nobody for four months pays nothing for those four months.
What counts as one document?
One generated and finalised item. An offer letter is one. A month of payslips is one per employee. An onboarding costs 15 credits inside the platform.
Do the 50 free credits expire?
They are issued on signup and are meant for testing the product end to end. There is no card on file, so nothing starts billing when they run out.
Is attendance charged separately?
No. Atndnz, the attendance app, is included for paying Offrd customers. Standalone it is Rs 9 per employee per month in India.
Can I move between the two plans later?
Yes. Firms usually start on pay per document during a hiring gap and move to the subscription once payslips run every month.
