Pocket HRMS Overview

Pocket HRMS is a cloud HR and payroll system for Indian businesses. It covers employee records, attendance, leave, payroll, statutory compliance and employee self-service, with mobile attendance features such as geo-tagging for staff who work on the move.

Who Uses Pocket HRMS and Why

  • Indian SMBs with around 50 or more employees
  • Businesses with field, retail or factory staff marking attendance on mobile
  • HR teams that need payroll and attendance linked without manual imports
  • Companies wanting asset and exit processes tracked in one place

How Teams Use Pocket HRMS Day to Day

Employees check in through the mobile app, with geo-tagging recording where they marked attendance. Leave and attendance flow into payroll, which calculates salary, PF, ESI, professional tax and TDS. Staff use self-service to see payslips and apply for leave. Professional adds geo-fencing, which restricts check-ins to set locations, plus custom payslips, confirmations, transfers, assets and exit workflows.

Pocket HRMS Pricing for a 75-Person Company

At 75 employees, Standard costs ₹2,995 plus 25 × ₹60, or about ₹4,495 a month, and Professional ₹4,495 plus 25 × ₹90, or about ₹6,745, billed annually and before GST. That makes it one of the lower-priced Indian HRMS options at this size.

Implementation is quoted separately based on your requirements, so get that figure in writing before signing.

Drawbacks to Know Before Buying

  • Implementation fees are extra and vary by scope
  • The 50-employee base package doesn’t suit micro-businesses
  • Premium is custom-priced
  • Performance and recruitment depth is lighter than larger HR suites
