Outsourcing HR Services in Pune
HR for Pune’s talent and its factories
Pune runs on two engines at once: an engineering and IT talent pool concentrated in Hinjawadi and Kharadi, and a manufacturing belt anchored at Chakan and PCMC. TMS helps employers across both worlds hire, pay and stay compliant, delivered on the ground and remotely from our Mumbai and Vadodara offices, active since 2006.

Why Pune Employers Choose TMS for Workforce and Compliance
Few Indian cities ask HR to stretch the way Pune does. A GCC in Kharadi hiring analysts sits a short drive from a Chakan auto plant running rotating shifts. TMS understands both rhythms, so payroll, contracts and statutory filings hold up whether your headcount is white-collar, blue-collar, or a mix of the two.
Getting Maharashtra compliance right takes local knowledge, not a template pulled from another state. Professional Tax slabs, half-yearly Labour Welfare Fund dues and Shops and Establishments registration all follow their own logic here. We manage these alongside central obligations like PF, ESI and TDS, keeping your Pune operations audit-ready through every hiring cycle.
HR Compliance Landscape in Pune and Maharashtra
Employing people in Pune means meeting Maharashtra state obligations on top of the central framework. Here is what applies and where the numbers sit.
Maharashtra Compliance Requirements
Employers in Pune must meet these obligations alongside central laws:
- Professional Tax under the Maharashtra State Tax on Professions, Trades, Callings and Employments Act, 1975 is deducted monthly: nil up to Rs 7,500, Rs 175 for Rs 7,501 to Rs 10,000, and Rs 200 above Rs 10,000, with an annual cap of Rs 2,500.
- Labour Welfare Fund under the Maharashtra Labour Welfare Fund Act, 1953 is Rs 25 from the employee and Rs 75 from the employer, a total of Rs 100, paid half-yearly in June and December.
- Shops and Establishments registration falls under the Maharashtra Shops and Establishments (Regulation of Employment and Conditions of Service) Act, 2017 for most commercial workplaces in Pune.
- Minimum Wages compliance requires paying Maharashtra notified rates by industry category and skill level, with periodic dearness allowance revisions applied correctly across your workforce.
- Contract Labour engagement brings licensing, registration and principal-employer duties, plus wage and record obligations that TMS manages for larger Pune sites.
- Central laws apply alongside state rules: PF, ESI, TDS, POSH and the four Labour Codes, all handled as part of one compliance mandate.
Maharashtra Professional Tax and Labour Welfare Fund at a glance
At a glance, here is how the Maharashtra Professional Tax slab works for monthly salary deductions.
- Up to Rs 7,500 a month: Nil
- Rs 7,501 to Rs 10,000 a month: Rs 175
- Above Rs 10,000 a month: Rs 200 (Rs 300 in February)
- Women up to Rs 25,000 a month: Exempt
Annual Professional Tax is capped at Rs 2,500. Under the Maharashtra Labour Welfare Fund Act, 1953, contributions are Rs 25 (employee) and Rs 75 (employer), Rs 100 in total per employee, paid half-yearly in June and December.
Figures are current as of 2026; statutory rates are revised periodically, so confirm the latest Maharashtra notification before filing.
