The Indian Labour Law Maze
EPF, ESI, PT, LWF, Wages, Bonus, Maternity, POSH, CLRA... one change in wages or headcount ripples through this entire web. One missed filing can trigger inspections, penalties, and criminal exposure.
EPF
Delayed PF can draw 12% interest, damages up to 25% and prosecution.
ESIC
Missing ESI filings blocks employee medical claims and attracts heavy damages.
Prof. Tax
10% penalty plus monthly interest on unpaid state-wise tax.
LWF
Missed half-yearly state welfare fund deductions cause audit failures.
TDS
Late TDS returns can cost ₹200/day plus interest and penalties.
Bonus
Underpaying statutory bonus triggers immediate union & labour court issues.
Gratuity
Miscalculating 5-year tenure leads to legal disputes on full & final exit.
Maternity
Denying 26-week benefits or crèche facilities violates federal law.
POSH
No IC committee or skipped annual returns leads to instant ₹50k fine.
CLRA
Principal employer held liable for contractor's unpaid wages and PF.
We monitor central and state labour statutes, tax rules, and daily notifications.

Yes. We monitor central and state gazettes for changes in VDA, PT slabs, EPF/ESI rates, and statutory deadlines. Rules engines are updated centrally — zero patches on your end, ever.
Our system maintains an inspector-ready audit trail of every calculation, challan, and filing. Resolving a notice typically means downloading the relevant registers from OpticompBharat and handing them to the officer — no scrambling through spreadsheets.
Yes. PT slabs, LWF contribution schedules, Shops & Establishments registration deadlines, and minimum wage VDA vary by state. OpticompBharat applies the correct rules for each state where your employees work — including multi-state companies.
The platform computes and generates all challan files, ECRs, and returns in the exact format required by EPFO, ESIC, and state portals. Filing itself is done by your accountant or compliance consultant using those outputs — we make their job a five-minute task instead of a three-day one.
Full platform access for companies up to 50 employees — payroll runs, statutory deductions, compliance registers, leaves, F&F, and all modules. No feature restrictions, no credit card required. After the trial, you move to a paid plan or export your data.
Most companies are fully operational within one working day. You add your company profile, upload employees (CSV import supported), configure statutory settings, and run your first payroll. Our guided onboarding checklist walks you through every step.
All data is encrypted in transit (TLS 1.3) and at rest (AES-256) on SOC 2-certified infrastructure hosted in India. Access is restricted by role-based permissions. PAN and Aadhaar are masked at rest. We do not share or sell your data.
OpticompBharat automates the calculation and documentation layer — the part that consumes most of a consultant's time. Your CA or legal advisor focuses on interpretation and high-stakes decisions, not on re-computing PT slabs every month. Most clients find they reduce consulting hours by 60–70%.
OpticompBharat works best as an end-to-end replacement. For larger companies already on an HRMS, our Enterprise API tier ingests payroll outputs and handles the compliance layer independently — no rip-and-replace required.
OpticompBharat supports both the legacy acts and the four new Labour Codes — Code on Wages, Industrial Relations Code, Social Security Code, and OSH Code. You can toggle between regimes as states notify the new codes, so your compliance posture is ready for the transition.
From EPF thresholds to penalty tables — plain answers to the compliance questions HR managers, founders, and finance heads search for daily.
