What is Qandle?
Qandle is an Indian HR platform that markets itself around modularity rather than tiers alone: the vendor describes 40+ HR modules across 35+ industries, spanning recruitment, attendance, payroll, digital records, task management, collaboration, 1:1 meetings, offboarding, employee helpdesk and visual analytics. The site states 1,000+ clients and 15,50,000+ users, and publishes logos including Philips, PharmEasy, Meesho, OLX, Inshorts, Titan and CRED. Qandle is now part of MYND Solution, positioning it inside a larger HR and finance services ecosystem.
Its payroll module is one of the more specific in this segment about Indian statutory output. Beyond auto-calculated PF, ESI and PT, Qandle publishes digitally signed Form 16 and 12BA, Form 24Q tax submission, bonus and gratuity calculations, and leave encashment. Payroll operations cover unlimited salary components, one-click payslip generation, full and final settlement, direct bank transfers and batch-wise or bank-wise payment processing across cash, cheque and digital payout modes.
The one thing Qandle does not do is publish its prices. Its page is titled 'transparent pricing' and does lay out the plan ladder — Foundation, Regular, Plus (marked most popular), Premium and Enterprise for 1,000+ employees — along with a monthly/yearly toggle, an annual saving, a stated 50-user minimum billing and a base-price-per-company-plus-per-employee structure. But the actual rupee amounts are not present in the page's served HTML; they render dynamically, so no figure can be quoted as published. Add-on modules including shift planning, field force tracking, timesheets, HR advisory, payroll advisory and compliance assistance are quoted on request via support@qandle.com.
What works well
- +Unusually granular Indian payroll output: digitally signed Form 16 and 12BA, Form 24Q, gratuity, bonus and leave encashment
- +40+ modules, so you can assemble a narrow deployment rather than buy a whole suite
- +Modular custom plans are explicitly offered — you can select only the modules you need
- +Free trial with no credit card required
- +No lock-in or minimum commitment period (vendor-stated)
- +Strong published customer logos for a mid-market vendor
- +Backed by MYND Solution's wider HR and finance services ecosystem
What to watch out for
- −Prices are not retrievable from the published pricing page — you must contact sales or book a demo
- −50-user minimum billing applies regardless of plan, so small teams pay a floor
- −A base price per company sits on top of per-employee pricing, which makes small deployments proportionally expensive
- −Six operational modules including shift planning, field force tracking and timesheets are separately quoted add-ons
- −Enterprise tier is gated at 1,000+ employees
- −Founding year, founders and security certifications are not published on the site
Best suited for: Indian companies that need precise statutory output — Form 16, 12BA, 24Q, gratuity and leave encashment · Buyers who want to licence a specific subset of modules rather than a full suite · Organisations with complex payout routing across banks, batches and payment modes · Companies that want an HR platform with a services partner behind it
