Running attendance and payroll for one shift is hard.
Running it for three shifts across two plants is a different problem.

Machines That Don’t Talk to Payroll: Biometric logs exported to Excel and retyped into payroll every month-end.

Rotating Shift Rosters: Workers moving between day, night and general shifts every week, tracked on paper.

Overtime Disputes on Payday: Extra hours noted by supervisors, questioned by workers, and fixed after payslips go out.

Factories Act Rules: Weekly offs, working-hour limits and overtime at twice the ordinary rate, for every worker.

PF and ESI for Every Worker: Most plant workers fall under PF, and many under the ESI wage limit, every single month.

Slow Full & Final Settlements: Exit payouts held up while attendance, overtime and gratuity are pieced together.

Day, night and rotating shifts, every plant

Set shifts for each plant and line, sync punches from the biometric machines at the gate, and see who’s missing before the shift starts.

Ask Maya instead of walking the plant floor

Maya, Crew’s AI HR agent, answers attendance, leave and payroll questions for managers and staff, and turns a one-line note into a complete leave request.

Managers see who’s in, who’s late and who’s on leave, just by asking
Staff ask about their attendance, leave balance or a payslip line and get a direct answer
A one-line note becomes a complete leave request, with dates, leave type and balance checked

Payroll that matches what workers saw at the gate

Attendance from every plant flows straight into payroll, so LOP, overtime and shift allowances are calculated automatically instead of rebuilt by hand each month.

Under the Factories Act, overtime is paid at twice the ordinary rate of wages. Crew Payroll applies your overtime rules to the hours each worker actually punched on the machine, so the overtime on the payslip is the overtime on the register — not a figure written down at the end of the shift. Net pay shown after PF and ESI.

One payroll engine, every state's rules

Plants in different states run on different PT slabs and labour welfare rules, and the Factories Act sets its own limits on hours and overtime. Crew Payroll keeps PT slabs, PF, ESI, bonus, and gratuity current for every plant, in every state, automatically.

Common questions

What is the best attendance and payroll software for factories in India?

Crew is built for Indian plants. It reads punches from the eSSL and Biomax machines at your gate, plans shifts and rosters, works out overtime and late marks, and runs payroll with PF, ESI, PT and TDS from the same attendance.

Can Crew use the biometric machine we already have?

Yes. Crew Growth works with eSSL and Biomax machines through Crew Connector, a small Windows app at your site. There is no new hardware to buy.

How does Crew calculate overtime for factory workers?

It counts the hours each worker puts in beyond their shift and pays them at the overtime rate you set, which under Indian law is usually twice the ordinary rate of wages. The overtime goes straight into that month’s payroll.

Can we run more than one plant on Crew?

Yes. Each plant or site gets its own location and geo-fence, and every punch lands in one attendance register and one payroll.

Does Crew handle PF and ESI for factory workers?

Yes. PF, ESI, professional tax and TDS are worked out on every payroll run, including ESI for workers earning up to ₹21,000 a month.

How much does Crew cost for a plant with 200 workers?

On Crew Growth, which includes biometric machines and shifts and rosters, it is ₹69,000 a year plus GST: ₹15,000 for the first 50 workers and ₹30 a month for each of the other 150.
