Payroll Outsourcing & Statutory Compliance Services in India
Managing payroll in India means staying compliant with TDS, EPF, ESIC, Professional Tax, LWF, and Gratuity — simultaneously, across every state where your employees work. TMS handles all of it, end-to-end, for companies ranging from 50 to 10,000+ employees across India. For companies that also need a contract staffing solution — where TMS acts as employer of record for your third-party workforce — we handle that too.
