Taxes & PESSI
Manage income tax deductions and social security (PESSI) contributions — configured once in settings and applied automatically every payroll cycle.
Income Tax
HRMGridSystem calculates tax deductions based on tax slabs you configure in System Settings → Taxes. Slabs define how much tax applies at different income levels.
Setting Up Tax Slabs
- Go to System Settings → Taxes.
- Define income ranges and the tax rate for each slab.
- Save — the system applies these rates when generating payslips.
Viewing Tax Records
- My Taxes — employees see their personal tax deductions per month.
- All Deducted Taxes — HR and finance see company-wide tax records.
PESSI (Social Security)
PESSI is the social security contribution scheme. Configure contribution rates under System Settings → PESSI.
Viewing PESSI Records
- My PESSI Deduction — employees see their personal contributions.
- All PESSI Deduction — HR and finance see all employee PESSI records.
How Deductions Are Applied
Both tax and PESSI are calculated and deducted automatically when payslips are generated:
- The system looks at the employee's gross salary for the month.
- Tax is calculated based on the configured slabs.
- PESSI is calculated based on the configured contribution rate.
- Both amounts appear as line items on the payslip and in the employee's records.
