Frequently Asked Questions

What is an HRM / HRMS system?

A Human Resource Management System (HRMS) is integrated software that digitizes and automates core HR processes: maintaining employee databases, tracking biometric attendance, managing leave applications, processing payroll with statutory taxes (PF, ESI, TDS), and conducting performance reviews.

How does HR Shastri support Indian statutory payroll compliance?

HR Shastri has built-in automated rules for Indian statutory compliance, including Employee Provident Fund (PF), Employee State Insurance (ESI), state-wise Professional Tax (PT), and Tax Deducted at Source (TDS) under old and new income tax regimes.

Can employees mark attendance via mobile app and biometric machines?

Yes. HR Shastri connects seamlessly with physical biometric fingerprint and face recognition devices across multiple locations, while field or remote employees can clock in using the iOS/Android mobile app with GPS geofencing and optional selfie capture.
