A fully-loaded HRMS built specifically for Indian businesses — payroll, compliance, people ops and self-service all in one place, at a price growing teams can actually afford.
Why Sethuve HRMS stands out: Full payroll + statutory compliance + grievance desk + help desk + onboarding + analytics + asset management + skills + surveys + report builder + ESS portal + eSign — all from ₹70/employee/month. Most HRMS vendors charge extra for every module. We don't.
These capabilities are typically locked behind expensive enterprise plans — or sold as costly add-ons. In Sethuve HRMS, they're included in every plan.
Employees can raise complaints confidentially. HR handles resolution through an 8-stage workflow with SLA tracking and internal notes — full confidentiality guaranteed. Most HRMS tools don't have this at all.
Generate appointment, confirmation, increment, warning and exit letters using a customisable clause library — on your company letterhead, with digital signature space. No Word templates, no copy-paste.
Build any report you need — across employee, attendance, payroll, leave and compliance data. Schedule reports to be emailed automatically. Most HRMS tools restrict you to pre-built reports only.
Get offer letters, contracts and policies digitally signed via Aadhaar e-sign — legally valid under the IT Act. Usually available only in premium enterprise HR platforms at much higher cost.
Track PF, ESI, PT, TDS, LWF and other statutory deadlines in one calendar. Get overdue alerts before you miss a filing. Typically found only in dedicated compliance tools sold separately.
Offer loans to employees and automatically deduct EMIs during payroll processing. Track outstanding balances, foreclosure, and interest — a feature usually available only in large ERP systems.
IT, Admin and HR support tickets — all inside your HRMS. Employees raise tickets, HR/IT resolve them with SLA tracking and comment threads. No need for a separate ticketing tool for internal requests.
Automatically calculate statutory bonus eligibility and amounts under the The Code on Wages, 2019 — with allocable and payable bonus distinctions. Rare to find in HRMS software at this price point.
All features below are available across all plans. The plans differ only in the maximum employee headcount.
