Why Teams Pay Less with NepalHRM
Only active employees count
Not per user or per admin seat. HR, managers and owners who aren't employees use it free, so you're never billed for the people running the system.
No per-module fees
Whatever your plan includes is fully unlocked, with no à-la-carte feature charges stacking up your bill. Compare the exact modules in each tier below.
Your first 15 or 20 are in the base fee
Essential includes 15 employees and Business includes 20. Past that, each extra employee is a fixed rate that steps down as the team grows, and each rate applies only to the employees in its band.
Nepal payroll built in
From Business up, PF · CIT · SSF · eTDS and IRD-ready filing come standard, never a paid add-on. Most teams pay less here than for a payroll bolt-on elsewhere.

The Startup Program column is what stays on after the 30-day trial of every module. A Startup Program workspace with more than 10 employees that has not chosen a paid plan keeps Core HR only, and its records in the other modules stay viewable. Biometric device hardware is billed separately. Activity tracker is an optional add-on at NPR 250 / employee / month.
Every published plan above is also published as machine-readable evidence: who checked it, against what, and the date it stops being current.
How we prove it →Running HR across multiple companies, 350+ employees, or regulated industries?
Enterprise adds multi-entity support, dedicated success management and a 99.9% uptime SLA, at a rate tailored to your scale.
Plans are priced by team size, not per module. If you are still working out which ones you need, the detail sits on the module pages: training courses and certificates, task management, announcements and employee engagement, staff loans and salary advances and expense reimbursement. Cost a month out first with the free Nepal payroll and tax calculators, download the comparison sheet and module guides, or resell NepalHRM through the Certified Partner Program.
Pricing Questions? Answered
A base fee covers your first employees, and each extra active employee adds a fixed rate. Essential is NPR 1,499 a month, including 15 employees, then NPR 60 per extra employee, 56 from the 51st and 54 from the 101st. Business is NPR 2,999 a month, including 20 employees, then NPR 99 per extra employee, 89 from the 101st and 79 from the 201st. Each rate applies only to the employees inside its band, so the bill never drops when you hire. On Essential, 16 employees cost NPR 1,559 a month and 60 cost NPR 4,159; on Business, 30 cost NPR 3,989.
Per active employee. HR admins, managers and owners are counted only if they are actually employees, so the people running the system don't add to your bill.
Yes, and they're the ranges on the cards above: Startup Program covers up to 10 employees, Essential up to 150 employees and Business up to 350 employees. Grow past the top of your plan and you move up a tier; past 350 you're on Enterprise, which is priced for your scale. We'd rather say so here than have you find out at checkout.
Both. Startup Program covers up to 10 employees at NPR 0 with no credit card. A new workspace starts with a 30-day trial of every module, payroll included. After the trial, Startup Program keeps attendance, leave, overtime, shifts, biometric and geo-fenced clock-in, the mobile app, roles and the audit log; Essential has the same module set, for more employees. Payroll, recruitment, onboarding, performance and the rest of the HR suite need Business. A Startup Program workspace with more than 10 employees that has not chosen a paid plan keeps Core HR only, and its records in the other modules stay viewable.
A one-time setup fee covers onboarding: NPR 2,500 on Essential and NPR 5,000 on Business, and it is waived when you pay yearly. On Startup Program, the only setup charge is NPR 2,500 if we install a biometric device for you. Our team invoices it separately, so the monthly figures above leave it out.
A yearly plan is billed for 10 months instead of 12, so you get 2 months free, and the one-time setup fee is waived. The price of a term is fixed for the whole of that term.
Khalti is live today; eSewa and ConnectIPS are rolling out. Bank transfer and cheque are also accepted. Every invoice is a proper Nepal tax invoice.
Prices shown exclude 13% VAT, which is added to invoices per Nepali law. 16 employees on Essential is NPR 1,559 a month before VAT and NPR 1,761.67 with it.
Not without notice. If your company signed up before this pricing was announced, a Startup Program workspace with 10 or fewer employees keeps its current plan and modules, and a paying company keeps its current per-employee rate until the first renewal that falls at least 30 days after we tell you about the change by email.
