Payroll check
Catch payroll errors before payout, and see why
Every finding shows the rule, the figures it compared and what to do. No score to trust. An AI summary is there if you want one.
What it checks
Run it on the processed month, before you finalise
Net pay against last month
Flags a rise or fall of 25% or more, and names the cause: loss-of-pay days, one-off pay, a loan instalment or a change in gross.
PF, ESIC and professional tax against the rules
Recomputes each with the rules for that month and flags a difference. This catches a run made before a rule change, such as the PF wage ceiling moving to ₹25,000 from September 2026.
Missing details that block filing or payout
No UAN for someone with PF, no ESIC number, no bank account or IFSC, and no work state for professional tax.
Duplicate bank accounts
Two employees paid into one account is the usual sign of a duplicate or ghost employee.
People missing from the run
Active employees with no payroll record, and people paid although their profile is not active.
Impossible or unusual amounts
Deductions as large as pay, more loss-of-pay days than working days, one-off pay as large as the salary, and no tax on a very high salary.
Example
What a finding looks like
Medium · illustrative example
Net pay fell 40% against last month
Net pay fell from ₹45,000 to ₹27,000 (-₹18,000). Biggest driver: gross pay (-₹18,000). In detail: loss-of-pay days went from 0 to 9.
What to do: Confirm the cause is intended (a revision, leave, bonus or recovery) before finalising.
The figures above are an example, not a customer’s data.
How the optional AI summary works
- The rules produce every number and reason. The AI only rewrites the findings in plain language and orders them by risk.
- Employee names are replaced by labels before anything is sent. Bank details, PAN, UAN, emails and IDs are never included.
- The answer is checked: a summary that contains a figure that was not in the findings is discarded.
- It is off unless enabled, and it asks for your consent each time you use it. If it is unavailable, you still get the rule-based summary.
Frequently asked questions
Does the payroll check change my payroll?
No. It reads the processed month and reports findings. You decide what to fix and when to finalise.
Is the AI summary required?
No. Every finding, figure and reason comes from the rules, with or without AI. The AI summary is optional, off unless it is enabled, and asks for your consent each time.
What does the AI see?
Only the findings, with employee names replaced by labels such as Employee A. Bank details, PAN, UAN, email addresses and employee IDs are not sent.
Can the AI make up numbers?
Its answer is checked before you see it. If it contains a figure that was not in the findings, it is discarded and the rule-based summary is shown instead.
Does it recompute income tax?
Not today. It checks PF, ESIC and professional tax against the rules. Income tax depends on each employee’s declarations, so it is checked only for large swings and for no tax on a very high salary.
