What is Payroll Accounting?
Payroll accounting involves the recording, processing, and reporting of employee compensation. It includes basic salary, allowances, bonuses, deductions (like TDS, PF, and ESIC), and net payable salary. It ensures accurate financial tracking and compliance with Indian tax and labour laws.
Why is Payroll Accounting Important?

Payroll accounting ensures that employees are paid the correct amount, on time. This builds trust and improves morale, which leads to higher retention and productivity.
Accurate Financial Reporting
Payroll is one of the biggest expenses for most businesses. Recording payroll entries properly helps maintain accurate books

Proper payroll records, payslips, and tax statements give employees confidence that their contributions and deductions are managed properly
