    About HRMantra & Governance

    HRMantra is a Mumbai-based, self-described "100% Indian homegrown" HR and payroll software company positioning itself as a mature, enterprise-grade player with heavy emphasis on feature breadth (20+ readymade APIs) and security certifications (SOC II, GDPR, ISO 27001, DPDP compliance). Its own payroll-software page leaned heavily on generic payroll-engine and security messaging rather than itemized statutory-compliance specifics, which is why most compliance checklist cells below remain unconfirmed rather than filled in - a dedicated compliance subpage should be checked in a future research pass.

    HeadquartersMumbai, Maharashtra, India
    FoundedNot conclusively resolved - sources conflict between 1996 and 1999 ("26+ years" per company marketing copy vs. a 1996 founding date attributed to Pankaj Bhargav in other sources); do not treat either figure as settled without direct confirmation from the company's own About page
    Team SizeApproximately 51-200 per one aggregator, ~109 per another (Latka) - treat as an approximate range, not a precise figure
