Quick answer
ASHR.work is priced in INR for teams in India, per employee per month, ex-GST. Starter is ₹49 per employee. Growth is ₹999 a month plus ₹69 per employee. Complete is ₹1,999 a month plus ₹109 per employee. Annual billing takes 15% off, 18% GST is added at checkout and shown on your invoice, and every workspace starts with a 15-day free trial with no card required. Enterprise is quoted for your team.
What does each tier cost?
All prices are per month in INR and exclude GST.
| Tier | Monthly | Billed annually (−15%) | Minimum | |---|---|---|---| | Starter | ₹49 per employee | ₹42 per employee | 20 employees | | Growth | ₹999 + ₹69 per employee | ₹59 per employee, base also −15% | 20 employees | | Complete | ₹1,999 + ₹109 per employee | ₹93 per employee, base also −15% | 50 employees | | Enterprise | Quoted for your team | — | — |
There is no setup fee and no upper cap on any tier. Below the minimum you still pay for the minimum, so pick the tier whose floor fits your team.
A worked example. A 50-person team on Growth pays ₹999 + 50 × ₹69 = ₹4,449 a month ex-GST, or about ₹5,250 with 18% GST.
What is in each tier?
- Starter — the HR core (employee directory and profiles, leave and holidays, org chart, documents and policy acknowledgements, onboarding, role-based access, reports, announcements) plus payroll with PF, ESI, PT and TDS, attendance, and an internal helpdesk. Email support.
- Growth — everything in Starter, plus performance appraisals, peer feedback, check-ins, goals and OKRs, one-on-ones, recognition, expenses, shifts and rosters, asset tracking, surveys and eNPS, letters, offboarding, the talent matrix, career growth plans, the Slack app, contractor payouts and benefits. Priority email and chat support.
- Complete — everything in Growth, plus recruitment with an applicant tracking system (3 recruiter seats included), calibration, the review-cycle builder, SSO and API access, and priority support.
- Enterprise — everything in Complete, plus custom modules, contract terms and invoice billing. Talk to us for a quote.
Every module carries one of four chips on the Modules page: Available, Beta (free until its dated general availability), Coming soon (not built yet — never priced and cannot be switched on until it ships) or Powered by Miatz (training and certification, a separate product).
What do add-ons cost?
A module outside your tier's bundle can be switched on à la carte, priced per employee per month and only while it is on. Growth modules on Starter: shifts ₹25, performance appraisals ₹35, peer feedback ₹25, check-ins ₹25, goals and OKRs ₹25, one-on-ones ₹19, recognition ₹19, expenses ₹29, assets ₹15, surveys and eNPS ₹19, letters ₹15, offboarding ₹15, talent matrix ₹25, career growth ₹25, Slack app ₹15, contractor payouts ₹29, benefits ₹19. Calibration on Growth is ₹25. Modules already in your bundle cost nothing extra.
Some add-ons are priced by what they meter rather than per employee:
- Recruiter seats — ₹999 per recruiter per month. Complete includes 3; on any other tier, or beyond 3, each recruiter is a seat.
- GPS and selfie attendance — ₹25 per employee per month.
- Biometric device connector — ₹499 per device per month.
- Guided data migration — ₹9,999 one-time, paid by payment link, for hands-on help with data our free self-serve importer does not cover (payroll history from a previous system, for example). Employees, leave balances, holidays, assets, salary structures and the org chart can be imported yourself, for free, from Admin → Import data — download a template, upload a CSV, and preview exactly what will change before anything is written.
How is GST handled?
Every price on this page and on /pricing is ex-GST. 18% GST is added at checkout and shown on your invoice. If your billing profile carries a Karnataka GSTIN the invoice splits it as CGST 9% + SGST 9%; any other state is charged IGST 18%. Add your GSTIN under Admin → Plan & Billing before you pay so it appears on the invoice and you can claim input credit.
How do I pay?
- Monthly — by card or UPI Autopay. The subscription renews on its own each month, and you can cancel any time from Plan & Billing.
- Annual — by a payment link we send you, with reminders 14 and 3 days before renewal.
- Above ₹15,000 a cycle — the RBI e-mandate limit means an automatic debit cannot exceed ₹15,000 including GST, so a monthly bill above that is paid through a payment link each cycle instead of an auto-debit.
Payment is in advance. A GST tax invoice is emailed on every charge, issued through Finocket, our sister product, and every invoice is listed with its PDF under Admin → Plan & Billing.
How does the free trial work?
Every new workspace starts on a 15-day free trial with every module unlocked and no card required. Pick a plan and pay at any point during the trial to activate immediately. When the trial ends without a plan, your workspace goes read-only for 7 days — you can still sign in and export — and is then locked. Nothing is deleted: reactivate any time by choosing a plan from Admin → Plan & Billing.
What counts as a seat?
A seat is a login. Every person who can sign in to your workspace is a seat — employees, managers and admins alike, full-time or part-time. People you keep on record without a login are not seats and cost nothing. Offboarded employees whose access is removed stop counting from the next cycle.
How do I pick a tier?
- Directory, leave, payroll, attendance and a helpdesk for a team of 20 or more → Starter.
- You run appraisals, goals or check-ins, or want expenses, shifts and the Slack app in the bundle → Growth.
- You hire regularly and want recruiting, calibration and SSO in the box, with 50 or more employees → Complete.
- Custom modules, contract terms or invoice billing → Enterprise.

International teams (USD)
Teams outside India are billed in USD on a separate sheet: Starter $4 and Growth $8 per employee per month, Enterprise quoted. USD subscriptions are paid by payment link, and invoices are zero-rated exports under LUT, so no GST is charged. INR is India pricing and USD is international pricing — the two are never one plan in two currencies. See /pricing?currency=usd.
Do you have a partner programme?
Yes. ASHR.work is an in-programme product of the Demystify Partner Programme, the one programme that also covers Finocket. Resellers, affiliates, chartered accountants and agencies who refer an organisation to ASHR.work earn a commission from Demystify on what that organisation pays. The customer pays the same published price, and the partner gets no seat in and no view of the customer's workspace — see Referred by a partner? for exactly what a partner-of-record can and cannot see. Tiers, rates and how to join are published by the programme at demystifysystem.com/partners.
