You run lean teams. People wear many hats. Paperwork shouldn’t slow you down. Offrd helps you roll out offer letters, onboarding, attendance, payslips, and compliance without juggling spreadsheets.
No commitment. Works for 5 to 200 people teams. Built for Indian compliance.
The offices below are the ones a Thiruvananthapuram employer actually deals with. Thiruvananthapuram is in Thiruvananthapuram district, and the district matters because several of these are district level appointments.
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. General information only, not legal or tax advice. Offrd is not affiliated with these offices. Last checked 12 September 2026. Corrections to service@offrd.co, please.
Technopark and Infopark are Kerala's two flagship, state promoted IT campuses, and it is worth knowing that Infopark's headline numbers cover three separate campuses combined, not just its Kochi site.
About 60,000 professionals and roughly Rs 6,100 crore in IT exports as of 2014-15, more than half of Kerala's total IT exports at the time, per Technopark's own figures.
Grew from an initial 100 acres transferred from KINFRA. Its current combined figures, across all three campuses, run to over 415 companies and about 51,000 professionals.
Part of the same Infopark system, with all three campuses sharing 323 plus acres and 9.2 million square feet of built up space, per the state IT department.
Named directly by the Kerala Department of Electronics and IT as anchor companies across the Infopark campuses.
MSME and Udyam registration for the district.
Handles Shops and Commercial Establishments Act registration statewide.
Kerala Labour DeptUnder the Kerala Municipality Act, profession tax is collected by the local body itself, not a state department.
Oversees Technopark and the Infopark system statewide.
Kerala IT DeptConfirm this before you rely on it. Infopark's 415 company and 51,000 professional figures are for all three campuses, Kakkanad in Kochi, Koratty in Thrissur and Cherthala in Alappuzha, combined, the state's own page does not break this down by campus, so we have not attributed the full figure to Kochi alone. Technopark's export figure is dated to 2014-15, the most recent found, and no current government sourced export figure was found for Infopark. 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.

Basic pay large enough that provident fund and gratuity are calculated on a realistic base, house rent allowance sized to the city, and a residual allowance that absorbs the rest. Since 21 November 2025 there is a further check under the labour codes: where excluded allowances exceed half of total remuneration, the excess is added back into wages for statutory purposes. A structure built to keep basic thin no longer achieves anything.
Getting this right once, at the company level, is worth more than tuning it per employee.
Minimum wages are notified by the state for each scheduled employment and skill level, and most states revise the dearness allowance component twice a year. A rate that was correct in March can be out of date in April without anyone in the company noticing, because nothing in payroll flags it.
The exposure is not just the shortfall. Provident fund, employee state insurance and bonus calculations all sit on top of wages, so an under revised rate makes several numbers wrong at once.
Take a salary where basic pay is a third of the total and the rest is allowances. Under the new definition, the allowances above half of total remuneration get added back into wages. Provident fund, gratuity and leave encashment then sit on a higher base than the payslip components suggest.
For a company in Kerala the useful step is to look at the structure once, at company level, rather than to discover the effect employee by employee at settlement time.
With a table, not a sentence. One column for the annual figure, one for the monthly, and a row for each component: basic, house rent allowance, any special allowance, the employer provident fund share, and the estimated deductions. The last row is estimated monthly take home, marked as an estimate because tax depends on the regime and the declarations the employee makes.
Companies in Kerala that do this at the offer stage spend much less time on salary disputes later, and their appointment letters and payslips agree with each other by construction.
In Thiruvananthapuram. Filings for a Thiruvananthapuram employer go to offices appointed for that district rather than for the town.
Kerala does not have a state professional tax department. Profession tax is assessed and collected by the local self government institution for the area.
Many Indian employers sit between 40 and 50 percent of gross. Under the labour codes, allowances excluded from wages that exceed 50 percent of total remuneration get added back, so a basic that is too thin no longer reduces provident fund or gratuity.
