Payroll Software for Schools and Educational Institutions in India
Indian schools deal with dearness allowance revisions, state government pay scales, PF for teaching staff and PT compliance across states. PayCare and Accord eHR handle all of it.
Common Challenges
What school administrators deal with every quarter
- Implementing state government DA revisions mid-year and recalculating arrears for teaching staff
- Managing PF compliance for both government-aided and unaided school staff
- Handling leave for teachers: casual leave, earned leave, maternity leave and medical leave
- Generating Form 16 for teaching staff with DA, HRA and other allowances in CTC
- Managing attendance for teachers across multiple shifts or divisions
The DA revision problem
Arrear recalculation in minutes, not days
When the state government announces a DA revision, PayCare recalculates affected salaries from the effective date and produces an arrear report for each employee — automatically. What used to take an accountant 2-3 days is done in under 5 minutes.
