Collecting investment declarations

Glam India's payroll was done in-house by the finance department. The payroll process was in a disorganised state and there was a lack of understanding on PF and other statutory matters. The calculations were incorrect and filing of statutory dues was not done.

Submitting investment declaration

TopSource Worldwide set up proper CTC structures and assisted HR in putting policies in place. Guidance was provided on all statutory matters, especially PF. A process was put in place to capture investment declarations from employees that assisted them in getting maximum benefit in reduction of tax. An online web portal provided access to employees to submit investment declarations and modify them as and when required.
