HR software for Vadodara (Baroda) petrochemical, engineering, IT & MSME. Gujarat abolished PT = No PT. Auto PF/ESI/TDS payroll, attendance & CRM. Covers GIDC Makarpura, Savli Industrial Estate. Free trial.
Gujarat abolished its state-level Professional Tax in 2023. Vadodara employers therefore have no PT deduction obligation — your salary calculations and salary slips are cleaner without any PT line item. Avani's Gujarat configuration reflects this: PT is disabled by default for all Vadodara employees, so payroll is accurate without any manual override. Compliance in Vadodara focuses on PF, ESI, and TDS — all automatically computed and challan-exported by Avani.
Vadodara is the petrochemical capital of Gujarat, home to GSFC (Gujarat State Fertilisers & Chemicals), IPCL (now Reliance), and the Nandesari and Padra GIDC chemical clusters. These plants run 24/7 multi-shift operations with large workforces. Avani supports shift configurations, shift rotation, overtime calculation, and biometric device CSV import for plant floors, while office and engineering staff use mobile GPS attendance. LOP and overtime auto-flow into payroll with no month-end spreadsheet reconciliation.
Vadodara is home to Alstom (locomotive manufacturing), ABB, L&T Heavy Engineering, and a cluster of precision-engineering units. The Heavy Vehicles Factory (HVF) Avadi's Vadodara operations and defence-linked manufacturing add to the city's industrial base. Avani handles multi-department payroll — engineering teams on CTC structures, plant workers on wage-based structures, and contract staff on flexible terms — all in a consolidated monthly payroll run.
For employees earning ≤ ₹21,000/month gross, Avani auto-computes ESIC contributions (0.75% employee + 3.25% employer), generates the monthly ESIC challan data, and produces contribution statements for the Vadodara regional ESIC office. PF is applied at 12% of basic (employee + employer) with the EPFO ECR file generated for the Vadodara regional EPFO office. TDS under Section 192 is computed automatically — no Gujarat PT obligation since the tax was abolished in 2023.
Vadodara's IT sector has grown around its strong engineering talent pool — companies in the Waghodia Road and Alkapuri areas, plus the MSU-linked startup ecosystem, provide software services and enterprise IT. For these office-based teams, Avani offers GPS geo-fenced hybrid attendance, CTC salary structures, project tracking, KPI dashboards, and a built-in CRM — replacing separate Keka, Zoho, and Jira subscriptions with one platform, with no Gujarat PT to configure.
Vadodara is also a significant commercial hub with active retail, banking, insurance, and trading sectors. Sales-driven teams need structured performance tracking. Avani's KPI module lets managers set monthly targets, track task completion, log sales calls, and auto-rank team members. The built-in CRM manages the client and lead pipeline alongside HR and payroll — so a Vadodara trading or services company does not need separate tools for people, projects, and pipeline.
No. Gujarat abolished its state-level Professional Tax in 2023. Vadodara employers therefore have no PT deduction obligation on their payroll.

Yes. GSFC, the Nandesari and Padra GIDC chemical clusters, and other Vadodara industrial units run 24/7 multi-shift operations. Avani supports morning, afternoon, and night shift configurations with shift rotation and overtime tracking.

No manual Excel reconciliation for HR or plant managers.
Yes. Heavy engineering, defence manufacturing, and precision-engineering units in Vadodara employ mixed workforces — engineers on CTC structures, plant workers on wage-based structures, and contract staff. Avani handles all these in a consolidated monthly payroll run with PF, ESI, and TDS computed per employee type. Shift scheduling and biometric CSV import handle the plant floor, while office engineers use GPS attendance.
Yes. Vadodara's growing IT sector — software services firms, engineering IT companies, and MSU-linked startups around Alkapuri and Waghodia Road — benefits from Avani's GPS geo-fenced hybrid attendance, CTC payroll, project tracking, KPI dashboards, and built-in CRM. There is no Gujarat PT to configure, which means setup is simpler: just PF, ESI, and TDS. It replaces separate Keka, Zoho, and Jira subscriptions with one integrated platform.
Most Vadodara businesses are live within a single day. The Gujarat (no PT) configuration, the Vadodara ESIC region, and EPFO jurisdiction are pre-set — setup is adding your address, importing employees, defining shifts and leave policy, and confirming salary structures. Avani is free to start with no implementation fee, so you can onboard your petrochemical plant team, engineering company, or IT office and run your first payroll the same week.
