Keka is excellent for India. For Pakistan teams, it is a compromise — INR pricing, Indian tax engine, and Pakistan compliance bolted on as a secondary feature.
If your team is in India, Keka is a strong choice. For Pakistan teams, Peoplifi was built natively for FBR, EOBI, PESSI, SESSI, and KPESSI — not adapted from India.
Keka is India's fastest-growing HRIS with a polished UI and strong Indian compliance (TDS, PF, ESI). Some Pakistani customers evaluate Keka because of its UX, but the product is fundamentally Indian: pricing in INR, default tax engine is Indian Income Tax Act, and Pakistan compliance relies on local customization.
Foundation: INR 9,999/mo for 100 employees + INR 100/extra employee. Roughly PKR 30,000 to PKR 80,000/mo for a 100-person Pakistan team.
PKR 840 per seat per month (Starter) for a 100-person team: PKR 84,000. But Starter includes payroll, time tracking, and desktop agent — bundled.
India-based teams that want polished HR UX and Indian compliance.
Pakistan teams (10 to 1000 employees) that want compliance built natively, not adapted from another country.
Keka's Pakistan tax engine is a customization layer over their core Indian engine. For complex scenarios (mid-year salary changes, bonus inclusion, multiple exemptions), the abstraction leaks. Peoplifi's Pakistan engine is native — same as their core.
Keka has a slight edge on visual polish and UI micro-animations. On end-to-end payroll accuracy and Pakistan compliance, Peoplifi is meaningfully better.
