Payroll Software Pricing in India (2026): What Does HRMS Really Cost?
Payroll software pricing in India cannot be compared fairly using monthly subscription prices alone. A package that includes only payroll and payslips is not equivalent to a platform that also includes HR, leave, biometric attendance, multi-location reporting and integration work. For a meaningful estimate, start with employee count, essential modules, onboarding scope and the number of locations.
- Compare the total package and implementation scope, not just the headline monthly fee.
- MYHR lists transparent employee bands from ₹2,000/month, with complete HRMS starting at Professional.
- Rates below reflect MYHR’s published pricing checked in October 2026 and may change.
| MYHR plan | Employee range | Published rate | Scope overview |
|---|---|---|---|
| Starter | Up to 50 | ₹2,000 / month | Payroll + ESS |
| Growth | 51–100 | ₹3,000 / month | HR + leave + payroll + ESS |
| Professional | 101–225 | ₹4,500 / month | Includes attendance + multi-location |
| Scale | 226–500 | ₹20 / employee / month | Complete published feature set |
| Business | 501–1,000 | ₹20 / employee / month | Complete published feature set |
| Enterprise | 1,001+ | Custom quote | Confirm scope with team |
What determines payroll software pricing?
Most providers consider employee strength, number of entities or locations, modules, implementation complexity, integrations, support, customisation and contract terms. A lower entry price can be appropriate for basic salary processing, while a more complete HRMS can cost more because it covers additional workflows.
Practical takeaway: Request a feature comparison against your written requirements; marketing labels such as “complete HRMS” can hide meaningful differences.
MYHR SaaS payroll software prices for 2026
MYHR’s public schedule lists Starter (up to 50 employees) at ₹2,000/month, Growth (51–100) at ₹3,000/month, Professional (101–225) at ₹4,500/month, Scale (226–500) at ₹20 per employee/month, Business (501–1,000) at ₹20 per employee/month, and custom enterprise pricing for 1,001+ employees.
Practical takeaway: These figures are published examples rather than a binding quotation. Applicable taxes and potentially separately billed services are additional.
What exactly is included in each MYHR plan?
Starter includes cloud payroll and Employee Self Service. Growth adds HR and leave management but not attendance. Professional adds attendance capabilities, biometric integration, mobile/selfie attendance, multi-location functionality and advanced reports. Scale and Business include the full published feature set for their employee bands.
Practical takeaway: Do not buy Starter expecting attendance integration: it is explicitly not included in the published comparison.
Worked examples: 50, 100, 225 and 500 employees
At the listed plan bands, up to 50 employees corresponds to Starter at ₹2,000/month; 100 employees falls in Growth at ₹3,000/month; 225 employees falls in Professional at ₹4,500/month; and 500 employees at ₹20 per employee/month gives ₹10,000/month. These are illustrative subscription rates before taxes and extra services.
Practical takeaway: For a business requiring attendance with fewer than 101 employees, confirm the available configuration and price directly rather than assuming it is covered by the lower employee-based tier.
Hidden or separate charges to ask about
Request line items for initial setup, historical data import, salary-policy configuration, biometric connections, bespoke integrations, additional implementation, user training, custom reports, extra locations, data exports and support terms. Also check taxes, billing frequency, renewal conditions and what happens as headcount crosses a tier threshold.
Practical takeaway: This is a procurement checklist, not a claim that every vendor charges each item.
How to estimate return on investment
Measure current payroll preparation hours, verification effort, payslip distribution, error correction, reporting, employee queries and software administration. Estimate the future process with realistic adoption and implementation effort. Avoid promising a universal percentage saving: productivity gains differ by workflow and readiness.
Practical takeaway: A time-saving estimate is more credible when validated in a pilot or parallel payroll cycle.
Request an apples-to-apples quotation
Send shortlisted vendors the same workforce profile: current headcount, expected growth, pay structures, locations, attendance devices, statutory requirements, reports, and rollout date. Ask each to confirm exact included modules, exclusions, support and total cost over a full year.
Practical takeaway: MYHR offers a published pricing page and a demo process for clarifying the appropriate plan.
