Industry PayrollPayroll Software for MSMEs PF, ESI, Registers & Bank Files
MSMEs run payroll with thin teams and thick compliance: shifts, contract labour, ESI, PF, bonus and inspections. NexoraHRMS covers those in one system without enterprise complexity.

What Makes Payroll Different Here
An MSME usually has fewer than 250 employees but many of the same obligations as a large company: PF, ESI, bonus, wage registers and inspections. Software that treats MSMEs as small corporates often misses contract and daily-wage realities.
Payroll Challenges and How NexoraHRMS Handles Them
Mixed workforce
Monthly staff, daily-wage and contract workers can sit in the same system, each with their own pay type.
Inspection readiness
Register of Wages, muster roll, leave ledger and bonus register can be printed or exported on demand.
Bonus, LWF, minimum wages
Statutory bonus calculator, Labour Welfare Fund and a minimum wages check keep the less-visible obligations on track.
Cash-flow discipline
Bank files, loans and advances with EMI recovery reduce cash handling and disputes.
Compliance Without a Compliance Department
Owners of small factories and workshops usually depend on a CA or consultant for statutory work. NexoraHRMS gives them clean data to hand over: ECR, ESI challan, Form 24Q summary, registers and a compliance calendar showing what is due and what is overdue.
Because payroll, attendance and registers come from the same data, inspection questions can be answered quickly.
- Compliance calendar with overdue alerts
- Registers and muster roll printouts
- Statutory bonus and gratuity estimates
- Minimum wages and LWF pages
