Stay or switch
When should you stay on greytHR?
Stay on greytHR if
- you have 26 or more people and keep attendance in another tool: Essential costs less than LekhaHR at every headcount above 25, ₹4,745 against ₹7,700 at 100;
- your payroll runs well and the team is stable, so a switch buys you little;
- you rely on greytHR’s add-ons, such as Recruit, the alumni portal or GPS live tracking;
- you are part-way through the financial year and want one payroll system until 31 March.
LekhaHR fits instead if
- you have 25 people or fewer: LekhaHR costs less than both plans and includes attendance;
- you need attendance at any size: LekhaHR costs less than Growth at every headcount;
- you want a bill that counts the people you have, monthly, with no 50-person base;
- you want to try it first: a 30-day free trial, no card needed.
