OpticompBharat vs GreytHR
Both platforms handle Indian payroll. The difference: OpticompBharat is built compliance-first — every module exists to keep you clear of labour law penalties. GreytHR is an HRMS that includes payroll.
Choose OpticompBharat if…
- You need full Labour Codes readiness (Code on Wages, IR Code, SS Code, OSH Code)
- Compliance is the primary risk — not just payroll processing
- You want a 1-year free trial with no card required
- You need POSH, CLRA, or a compliance audit score
GreytHR may suit you if…
- You have 200+ employees and want a mature HRMS with broad integrations
- Your HR team manages complex leave and talent workflows beyond compliance
- You're already embedded in the GreytHR ecosystem

Key differences explained
Labour Codes readiness
India's four new Labour Codes (Code on Wages, Industrial Relations Code, Social Security Code, OSH Code) will replace 29 central acts. States are notifying them on a rolling basis. OpticompBharat lets you toggle between the legacy regime and the new codes per state — so you're ready the day your state publishes the notification. GreytHR currently operates on legacy act logic with no published toggle mechanism.
Compliance audit engine
OpticompBharat includes a built-in compliance audit that scores your organisation across 60+ questions spanning 9 central acts and 15 state-specific laws. It generates a finding report with severity ratings and a remediation tracker. GreytHR does not offer this — compliance gaps must be identified manually or by an external auditor.
Pricing model
OpticompBharat offers a 1-year free trial for companies up to 50 employees — no credit card required. GreytHR's pricing is not published on its website; it requires a demo call and is structured per-employee per-month with tiered modules. For companies setting up payroll for the first time, OpticompBharat removes the procurement friction entirely.
