Payroll.
Indian payroll, built in — not bolted on — because we cut our own teachers' payslips on this exact module every month.

A school with two hundred staff should not run payroll in a spreadsheet.
The Monday-morning reality
Most schools between eighty and three hundred staff run payroll in a spreadsheet held together by one person's formulas, or in a generic accounting tool that knows nothing about a school day. PF, ESI and PT maths gets done by hand, a single mistyped cell becomes a wrong bank file, and Form-16 season is reconstructed from memory and receipts. ScholaRise does payroll natively for one reason: we are a school too, and every month these are our teachers' payslips — so we feel the bugs before you do.
-
Salary structures
Build pay from reusable earning and deduction components, then set designation-based scales so a new appointment inherits the right structure on day one.
-
Per-employee assignment
Give each employee a structure, then tweak a single line — a special allowance here, a capped deduction there — without rebuilding the whole scale to do it.
-
Payroll runs
Calculate and execute monthly or periodic payroll in one pass, then generate every payslip as a PDF ready to send — no manual export, no copy-paste into a template.
-
Attendance-linked pay
Salary reflects what actually happened: leave and attendance flow into a per-day ledger, so loss-of-pay is computed from records you already keep — not re-keyed.
-
Salary increments
Run annual revisions or special increments in bulk — across a designation, a campus or the whole trust — instead of editing one record at a time.
-
Indian statutory
Provident Fund (EPF), ESI and Professional Tax worked out natively — the deductions Indian payroll lives and dies by, handled properly instead of bolted on.
-
Tax engine & Form-16
Per-staff tax profiles, declarations with uploaded proofs, annual Form-16 generation and a tax audit log — so March is a workflow, not a scramble.
-
Salary audit & checks
Catches the slip — the missing deduction, the doubled allowance — before it reaches the bank file, not after the money has already moved.
-
01 / 04
Kept separate by campus and year, exactly like the rest of the platform — so a multi-campus trust keeps each campus's payroll its own, and last year's numbers stay last year's numbers.
-
02 / 04
Fed by the attendance you already keep. Staff leave and attendance aren't entered twice; the same per-day records the school runs on become the loss-of-pay line on the payslip.
-
03 / 04
On the same web, iOS and Android apps. The accountant runs the month from the desk; an administrator approves a held salary from a phone. No separate payroll login.
-
04 / 04
Within reach of Sol, the AI agent. The same assistant that answers questions across the school sits over payroll too — a quiet way to ask what changed this month, not a fourth tool to learn.
Where this comes from
We make our own payslips on this module every month. That is a claim no vendor can borrow.
