HR, payroll and attendance on one platform

HRMS Software Development Company in Pune

Elitemark builds custom HRMS software for Indian SMEs and enterprises — replacing the mess of biometric exports, Excel muster rolls and per-branch payroll spreadsheets with a single, mobile-first HR platform. Our HRMS covers the entire employee lifecycle: recruitment, onboarding, attendance and shift management, leave, payroll with statutory compliance (EPF, ESI, PT, TDS, Gratuity), reimbursements, appraisals, exit and full-and-final settlement.

Every HRMS build starts with an HR-process audit — how you capture attendance today (biometric, mobile, RFID, manual), how you handle multi-shift and multi-branch staff, how many statutory returns your CA files, and what reports your MD reviews monthly. The output is an HRMS blueprint tailored to your organisation, not a template that pretends every company runs like a 100-seat IT startup.

— Six pillars

What every Elitemark build ships with

These six commitments are baked into every project, regardless of package or price — because a slow, insecure, un-indexed site is a liability, not an asset.

🛡

Enterprise Security

OWASP Top-10 hardened, SSL, WAF, encrypted storage, regular vulnerability scans.

📈

SEO Ready

Semantic HTML, JSON-LD schema, sitemap, geo-targeted meta — built to rank in Pune & India.

🔧

Scalable Stack

Modern React, Node, cloud-native. Ready to scale from MVP to millions of users.

🎨

Bespoke Design

Every pixel hand-crafted. No cookie-cutter templates, no generic AI aesthetics.

🤝

Post-launch Support

AMC plans, WhatsApp support, monthly reports. We stay after the site goes live.

HRMS modules we ship

Our HRMS framework covers the full lifecycle — recruitment (job posts, ATS, interview panels), onboarding (offer letters, e-signature, document collection, joining checklist), attendance (biometric integration, mobile geo-fenced punch, RFID, IP-based), shift and roster planning, leave (multi-level approval, quota, carry-forward, comp-off), payroll (multiple pay heads, arrears, LOP, one-time bonuses), statutory (EPF, ESI, PT, TDS, LWF, Gratuity), reimbursements and expense management, appraisals with KRAs and 360-degree feedback, and exit / FnF settlement.

Every module ships with the reports your CA / auditor / MD actually asks for — Form 16, Form 24Q, ECR files, PT / LWF challans, monthly attendance MIS, headcount reports, cost-per-employee dashboards and CTC benchmarking against industry averages.

Biometric integration

Works with eSSL, ZKTeco, Matrix, Realtime and most Indian biometric brands.

Mobile attendance app

Geo-fenced, selfie-based punch for field staff and hybrid teams.

Payroll & statutory

EPF, ESI, PT, TDS, LWF, Gratuity — with ECR / Form 24Q / Form 16 exports.

Employee self-service

Payslips, tax declarations, reimbursements and leave from the mobile app.

Indian statutory compliance out of the box

Indian HR compliance is unforgiving — one wrong ECR entry and PF challans reject; one missed PT slab and your finance team spends a week reconciling. Our HRMS handles the statutory pieces natively — PF (with UAN, KYC status, ECR file generation), ESI (with contribution capping), state-wise PT slabs, LWF, Gratuity accrual, Bonus Act calculations, and TDS with quarterly Form 24Q returns and annual Form 16 generation.

Everything is tested against the latest circulars — when the government revises a slab or a form format, we push an update to your HRMS before your next payroll run.

Attendance across offices, factories and field

Attendance is where most HRMS deployments succeed or fail. Ours works across biometric devices (eSSL / ZKTeco / Matrix / Realtime — auto-poll, no manual export), RFID card readers, mobile geo-fenced punches for field staff, selfie-based check-ins for hybrid teams and web punches for office staff. Multi-shift, night shift, split shift, comp-off, week-off, holiday calendars and grace-period rules are all configurable.

For manufacturers and multi-branch retailers, our HRMS supports multi-location, multi-shift rosters with contract-labour tracking, principal-employer compliance and RTO-mandated Motor Vehicle rules where applicable.

Employee self-service mobile app

Every HRMS ships with an Android + iOS employee app — payslips, tax declarations, IT proofs upload, leave, comp-off, reimbursement claims, expense submission, holiday calendar, team directory, birthdays / anniversaries feed and push notifications for approvals.

The mobile app is the single biggest driver of HRMS adoption — because when your 200-person factory can pull a payslip from their phone at midnight before applying for a home loan, HR stops being the department everyone complains about.

Integrations, deployment & AMC

Our HRMS integrates with Tally / Zoho Books / Busy for payroll journal posting, with your bank for salary transfer files (NEFT / RTGS / IMPS bulk files), with WhatsApp for payslip delivery and leave approvals, and with any biometric device that speaks a standard protocol.

Deployment is cloud (AWS / Cloudflare) or on-premise. AMC covers statutory updates (slab / form changes), uptime monitoring, backups, security patches and unlimited user support with defined SLAs.

About Elitemark — software development in Pune, India

Elitemark Software Pvt Ltd is a leading custom software development company in Pune, India, building enterprise-grade software products for manufacturing, distribution, healthcare, education, retail and services businesses across Maharashtra and pan-India. Since our founding we have shipped ERP systems, CRM platforms, HRMS suites, school ERPs, hospital management systems and manufacturing MES software for 120+ SMEs and enterprises — hosted on-premise, on private cloud and on AWS / Azure / Cloudflare.

Our software delivery model is transparent, fixed-scope and outcome-driven. Every engagement starts with a business analysis workshop that captures your existing workflow, pain points, integrations and reporting needs — followed by a written Software Requirements Specification (SRS), UI wireframes, a milestone-based development plan and a fixed commercial proposal. During build we run two-week sprints on a private staging environment, so you see progress every fortnight and can course-correct without change-order friction.

On the engineering side, our Pune team is fluent across the modern software stack — React, Next.js, TypeScript, Node.js, .NET Core, Java Spring Boot, Python Django, PostgreSQL, MySQL, MongoDB, Redis, Docker, Kubernetes, and REST / GraphQL APIs. We follow SOLID design, git-based version control, code reviews, automated tests, CI/CD pipelines and role-based access control on every project — because enterprise software must be maintainable, secure and audit-ready from day one.

Software has to earn its keep every quarter, not just at launch. That is why we architect every Elitemark build around three engineering principles: modularity so each department can evolve without breaking others, observability so problems are caught before your users report them, and portability so the same code can move from an on-prem Windows server to a Kubernetes cluster on AWS or Azure with a single deployment script. In practice this means we ship structured application logs, Prometheus / Grafana metrics, uptime and error monitoring on Sentry / BetterStack, automated database backups with point-in-time recovery, and infrastructure-as-code (Terraform / Pulumi) — so your DevOps team can audit and reproduce every environment without a phone call to us.

Beyond raw engineering, Elitemark operates as an accountable software partner for the Pune, Mumbai, Nashik, Nagpur, Bangalore, Hyderabad, Delhi, Ahmedabad and Chennai belts. Our project managers work in your time zone and language, we run steering committees every fortnight for medium and large builds, and we produce written status notes so procurement, finance and IT leadership can each see progress from their own lens. Whether the project is a 6-week MVP or a 12-month multi-module ERP, you always know what is shipping this sprint, what is queued for the next, what is blocked and who owns the fix.

A large portion of our engagements are re-writes of software that other Indian vendors could not maintain — usually because the original developers left, the documentation was thin, the database was undesigned, or the codebase was tangled with copy-pasted logic. When Elitemark inherits such a project, we do a two-week rescue audit that catalogues the endpoints, the data model, the security holes and the business logic, then presents a phased modernisation plan with a fixed timeline and cost. Clients typically recover their software within one quarter, migrate to a cleaner stack within two, and add new revenue-facing features within three — without ever taking their business offline.

Elitemark's Pune software team is intentionally small, senior and stable — every project is staffed with at least one architect who has shipped a comparable system in the last 24 months, backed by mid-level engineers, a dedicated QA lead and a project manager who runs your stand-ups, demos and steering committees. We avoid the pyramid-shaped staffing model that most Indian services companies use, because it silently pushes the hardest decisions to the least experienced people on the team. The trade-off is that we are deliberately selective about the number of concurrent engagements we accept — but the pay-off is that your project actually ships on time, with code you can hand to a future in-house team without embarrassment.

Our documentation and hand-over standard is another quiet differentiator. Every Elitemark engagement ends with a full technical dossier — architecture diagrams, entity-relationship diagrams, API reference (OpenAPI / Swagger), environment setup guide, deployment runbook, incident response playbook, user manuals in English and Hindi / Marathi where required, admin training videos, and a written 90-day roadmap of the improvements we recommend post-launch. Clients who eventually build an in-house team can onboard a new developer in under a week, and clients who continue with us on AMC benefit from the same rigour when we add new modules two or three years later.

We work with clients ranging from bootstrapped founders with a single-page MVP idea to listed enterprises running multi-country operations, and our commercial models flex to match. Fixed-scope milestone billing works best for well-scoped MVPs and rewrites; dedicated squad / T&M works best for long-running product roadmaps where scope evolves month to month; and hybrid staff-augmentation lets you add Elitemark engineers into your own Jira / GitHub / Slack so you scale capacity without losing product ownership. In every model our commercials are transparent — day rates published in the contract, no surprise per-seat license fees, no exit penalty if you decide to bring the team in-house, and no long-term retainer lock-in that punishes clients for succeeding and outgrowing the original scope of work with our Pune team.
