How Retro Pay Works

FAQ

Retro Pay — Questions We Get Asked

Retro pay within a single entity is part of the Growth plan (₹149/employee/month), the same tier as the full payroll & compensation suite. Retro adjustments spanning multiple entities or states fall under the Enterprise plan, alongside multi-entity payroll and custom approval workflows.

It applies cleanly to every affected cycle automatically, instead of being recalculated and corrected by hand cycle by cycle.

Retro pay works alongside salary revisions, which keep compensation history with a built-in approval workflow — a revision is often what triggers a retro adjustment.
