Payroll by Briltus

Terms of Service

Last updated 22 October 2026

Effective from 22 October 2026.

1. About these terms

These Terms of Service ("Terms") govern access to and use of Payroll by Briltus (the "Service"), an online payroll software service provided by Briltus, Hyderabad, Telangana ("we", "us", "our"). By creating an account, starting a free trial or using the Service, you agree to these Terms on behalf of the organisation you represent ("you", "Customer"). If you do not agree, do not use the Service.

2. The Service

The Service helps you calculate salaries and statutory deductions (Provident Fund, ESI, Professional Tax and income tax deducted at source), run monthly payroll, produce payslips, letters, reports and statutory files, and give your employees a self-service portal.

The Service applies the rules we have configured for each financial year to the information you enter. You remain responsible for the accuracy and completeness of the data you enter, for reviewing the results before you pay salaries, and for making statutory payments and filings on time. The Service is a tool; it is not legal, tax or accounting advice. Please consult a qualified professional for advice specific to your organisation.

3. Your account

  • You must provide accurate registration details and keep them up to date.
  • You are responsible for all activity under your organisation's account, including by the staff users you add, and for keeping passwords and sign-in methods secure. Tell us promptly at info@briltus.com if you suspect unauthorised access.
  • You confirm that you are authorised to enter and process the personal data of your employees in the Service, and that you have given them any notices required by law.

4. Free trial and plans

  • New accounts receive a free trial with the limits shown on our pricing page. No payment is collected during the trial.
  • At the end of the trial you may choose a paid plan or the Free plan, if your organisation is within its limits.
  • Each plan includes the features and limits (employees, staff users) shown on our pricing page at the time you subscribe.

5. Fees, payment and taxes

  • Paid plans are prepaid, monthly or yearly, at the prices on our pricing page. Goods and Services Tax (GST) is charged in addition, and a GST invoice is issued for every payment.
  • Plans do not renew automatically; you renew from Plan & Billing before the paid period ends.
  • Upgrades take effect immediately and you pay the pro-rated difference for the rest of the current period. Downgrades take effect from the next renewal.
  • We may change prices for future periods. Changes do not affect a period you have already paid for.
  • Payments are processed by our payment gateway partner or by bank transfer. We do not store card or UPI details.

6. Cancellation and expiry

You can cancel at any time from Plan & Billing; your plan stays active until the end of the period already paid for. When a paid period ends without renewal, your account moves to the Free plan if it is within the Free plan's limits; otherwise it becomes read-only, and you can still view and download your payslips, reports and documents. Refunds are governed by our Refund & Cancellation Policy.

7. Acceptable use

8. Your data

You own the data you enter into the Service ("Customer Data").
