THE HYDERABAD PICTURE

What is HR outsourcing, and why do Hyderabad companies use it?

In short

HR outsourcing means a specialist firm runs your people processes for a fixed monthly fee. For a Hyderabad company with 5 to 100 employees, HRTailor provides a dedicated HR Manager, a small HR team and a Cloud HRMS that together handle payroll, PF and ESIC returns, Telangana Professional Tax and Labour Welfare Fund, offer letters, attendance, leave, policies, employee queries and exits. Hyderabad makes it easy to incorporate and hire quickly, so many companies find months later that HR never kept pace: offer letters on borrowed templates, attendance in spreadsheets and Telangana rules assumed to be the same as everywhere else. Plans start at ₹10,000 a month plus GST, which is less than one senior HR hire in Hyderabad's talent market, and the service runs fully online from our Mumbai office. Companies above about 100 employees, or those who only need software or recruitment, are usually better served by a large payroll firm, an HRMS tool or a staffing agency.

01

Two very different clusters

HITEC City, Gachibowli and the Financial District host GCCs and product teams. Genome Valley and Jeedimetla run round-the-clock pharma operations with shifts, safety records and audit trails.

02

Fast start, late HR

Single-window approvals make it quick to start. The HR gaps show up later, at a funding diligence, a client audit or a labour inspection.

03

Telangana is its own state

Since 2014 Telangana has its own Professional Tax administration, its own notifications and its own adapted Shops and Establishments Act. Old undivided-Andhra assumptions cause mistakes.

THE FULL FUNCTION

What does HRTailor do for Hyderabad businesses?

Once live, your engagement covers the complete HR department:

01

HR Outsourcing

Documents, onboarding, attendance, leave and exits handled end to end, equally at home with a Gachibowli product team and a Jeedimetla plant roster.

02

Payroll Outsourcing

Monthly salaries with Telangana deductions applied, shift and allowance handling for round-the-clock operations, and annual TDS certificates without the year-end rush.

03

Statutory Compliance

Telangana registrations, returns and registers plus the central framework, on one calendar owned by the HRTailor compliance team.

04

Cloud HRMS

Biometric-ready attendance, the Telangana holiday calendar built in, document management, mobile approvals and workforce dashboards.

PAYROLL

How do payroll outsourcing services in HITEC City, Madhapur and Gachibowli work?

HRTailor runs end-to-end payroll for Hyderabad companies with 5 to 100 employees, office and plant teams together, from salary processing and payslips to Telangana Professional Tax, PF and ESIC filings and TDS. Every payroll cycle is processed by the 7th of the month.

What is included

  • CTC payroll for IT and GCC teams and shift and night allowances for pharma units
  • Telangana Professional Tax and Labour Welfare Fund deductions
  • PF and ESIC registration, monthly returns and challans, with PF coverage applied up to the new ₹25,000 monthly wage ceiling (from 17 September 2026)
  • Quarterly TDS returns in Form 138 (formerly Form 24Q) and annual TDS certificates in Form 130 (formerly Form 16)
  • Variable pay, statutory bonus, arrears and reimbursements
  • Full and final settlement for every exit

How it works, month by month

  1. 1
    Inputs

    Your HR Manager collects attendance, shifts, leave, joiners, exits and changes from the HRMS.

  2. 2
    Processing

    Salaries are calculated with PF, ESIC, Professional Tax and TDS applied per employee.

  3. 3
    Your approval

    You review one payroll summary. Nothing is paid without your sign-off.

  4. 4
    Payment

    We prepare the bank transfer file and payslips reach employees through the HRMS.

  5. 5
    Filings

    PF, ESIC, Professional Tax and TDS returns are filed on time and challans saved for you.

GETTING STARTED

How does onboarding work, week by week?

From first call to fully operational in about three weeks:

Week 1

Map and collect

We review employee records, salary structures, registrations and pending filings, and collect everything digitally. You name one point of contact; we do the chasing.

Week 2

Configure and check

Payroll is built and reconciled against your last run, Telangana registrations are checked, and the HRMS is set up with your policies, holidays and approvals.

Week 3

Go live

Employees get self-service logins, your HR Manager takes over the day to day, and the first HRTailor payroll goes out, reviewed by you and run by us.

COST

How much does HR outsourcing cost in Hyderabad?

The short answer

HRTailor plans for Hyderabad businesses start at ₹10,000 a month plus GST for a small team. That covers a dedicated HR Manager, monthly payroll for office and plant teams, PF, ESIC, Professional Tax, Labour Welfare Fund and TDS filings, HR letters and policies, employee queries, exits and the Cloud HRMS. The price rises with headcount and with extras such as several establishments or round-the-clock shift payroll, and you get a written quote before you sign. By comparison, an in-house HR Manager typically costs ₹8 to 15 lakh a year plus benefits, and one person gives no cover during leave or resignation. Payroll software alone is cheaper per employee but leaves filings and employee work with you. Large payroll processors usually start higher and are built for hundreds of employees. There are no hidden fees: every charge is listed on our pricing page.

Yes. Since 2014 Telangana has its own Professional Tax administration and its own labour notifications, and it adapted the 1988 Shops and Establishments Act for the state in 2016, with its own later changes. Our compliance team tracks Telangana separately.

Yes. Shift rosters, night-shift allowances, overtime records and the registers inspectors and quality auditors ask for are standard for our life-sciences clients. The HRMS handles rostering; the team handles the paperwork.

We become your India HR back office: locally compliant contracts and policies, monthly payroll, statutory filings and an HRMS your global team can see into, so the parent company gets reporting without building an India HR function from scratch.

Yes, for many teams. From 17 September 2026 the wage ceiling for mandatory PF coverage rose from ₹15,000 to ₹25,000 a month, so employees earning up to ₹25,000 must now be covered. We check every employee against the new ceiling, update contributions from the right month and file the returns.
