India Payroll

PwC is hiring for an India Payroll role across Bangalore Rural and Bengaluru, focused specifically on domestic Indian statutory payroll compliance using a dual-system setup spanning both Workday and Dayforce. You will execute end-to-end India payroll processing, a role requiring precision given the number of statutory obligations involved in Indian payroll operations generally. Validating payroll inputs before processing is a critical control step, catching errors before they affect employee pay or statutory filings downstream. Ensuring statutory compliance runs throughout the role, covering PF, ESI, PT, LWF, and TDS regulations that govern Indian payroll broadly. Resolving payroll queries directly with employees is a regular responsibility, and you will collaborate closely with both HR and finance teams.

Candidates need 2-5 years of India payroll processing experience with hands-on exposure to both Workday and Dayforce systems, reflecting the dual-platform environment for this role. Strong knowledge of Indian statutory compliance requirements is essential, specifically covering PF, ESI, PT, LWF, and TDS regulations. Practical payroll reconciliation experience is required, including gross-to-net validation to ensure accuracy before disbursement each cycle. Strong MS Excel skills are needed for payroll data handling and validation tasks throughout the process. Candidates should be comfortable resolving payroll queries directly with employees and coordinating closely with both HR and finance teams.
