Over the last three years, some of India’s leading banks, financial institutions, and corporate offices have been quickly adapting to automation in payroll management in order to organise and pay employees on time, however there’s still a long way to go if India’s HR Payroll Software market is to achieve $14.31 Bn growth by end of 2030. While startups and SMEs have leveraged automated HR payroll management softwares to avoid compliance issues, the larger organisations continue to struggle with managing compliance in payroll.
A recent study released by RazorpayX, titled ‘Payroll Maturity Index 2023’ analysed payroll data of 163 enterprises across 12 key industries in August’23 and brought to light everyday compliance issues faced by large organisations. The report found a staggering 42% of large organizations in India struggling with payment and filing compliance issues in their payroll management. Other issues include salary delays faced by 44% and inaccuracies in payroll calculations & processing faced by 40% of the large organizations surveyed. Despite payroll software market’s growth prospects, it is clear that a substantial portion of organizations are still grappling with archaic systems and manual payroll processes.

With open APIs and integrations with 45+ HR tech partners, RazorpayX Payroll integrates seamlessly with all popular Human Resource Management Softwares (HRMS).
