PayEFlowPayEFlow · Statutory compliance

PF, ESI, PT and TDS — worked out with every run.

PayEFlow calculates Provident Fund, ESI, Professional Tax and salary TDS on every payroll run, checks coverage and thresholds before you approve, and produces the files for the EPFO and ESIC portals.

Provident Fund

PF the way your company actually pays it.

Ceiling or full wages, EPS and EDLI, arrears — and the ECR file at the end of it.

  • PF on the wage ceiling or on full wages.
  • EPS and EDLI wages calculated separately.
  • The reduced 10% contribution rate where the EPF Act allows it.
  • Arrear PF calculated month by month for back-dated revisions, with an arrears schedule.
  • Coverage warnings, and an EPFO ECR 2.0 file from every locked run.
ESI

ESI contributions, with the threshold watched for you.

PayEFlow flags employees crossing the ESI wage threshold during review, before the run is approved.

Professional Tax

State slabs, pre-loaded where it matters.

Six states come ready with their slabs, three are set to nil, and for any other state an admin adds the slab table once.

Labour Code & gratuity

The 50% wage test, on every run.

Each component carries its Labour Code treatment, so PayEFlow checks the 50% wage test during review. Gratuity accrual is tracked, and full-and-final settlements include gratuity and leave encashment.

When the law changes

Rates are dated rules, not hard-coded numbers.

A new PF ceiling, ESI rate or PT slab is entered as a rule with a start date — approved, logged, and applied from that month on.

  • Every rule has an effective date, so earlier months keep the rates that applied then.
  • Rule changes need approval and appear in the audit trail.
  • Statutory dues are listed with their due dates after each run.

Compliance questions

Does PayEFlow generate the EPFO ECR file?+
Yes. Each locked run produces an EPFO ECR 2.0 text file for upload to the EPFO unified portal, and a PF arrears schedule when there are arrears.
Can PF be calculated on the full wage instead of the ceiling?+
Yes. PF can run on the wage ceiling or on full wages, with EPS and EDLI wages handled separately, and the reduced 10% rate where it applies.
Which states' Professional Tax does PayEFlow support?+
Slabs come pre-loaded for Maharashtra, Karnataka, West Bengal, Telangana, Gujarat and Punjab, and Delhi, Haryana and Chandigarh are set to nil. For any other state, an admin adds the slab table and PayEFlow applies it.
What happens when the law changes a rate?+
Statutory rates are stored as dated rules. A change takes effect from its date, needs approval, and is logged — earlier months keep the rates that applied then.
Does PayEFlow file returns for me?+
PayEFlow prepares the files and data — ECR, ESIC contributions, Form 130 Part B and Form 138 / Form 140 data — and lists statutory dues with due dates. Filing on the government portals stays with you.
