See the liability your contractors hide — in rupees, line by line

Your compliance tracker checks documents. LEKHA checks truth.

Principal employers carry vicarious liability for contractor defaults — unpaid minimum wages, unremitted PF, uncovered ESI. The gap between what was owed and what was remitted stays invisible until an EPFO 7A inquiry or a social audit opens it.

• Reconciliation from the muster roll, not the filing calendar
• Exposure stated in currency with ageing — not vanity scores
• Invoice gating holds contractor payment until gaps close
• Bitemporal records — answer what LEKHA knew on any date

From muster roll to disposal

1. 1

   Ingest what actually happened

   Attendance from the muster roll and biometric devices, contractor filings, PF and ESI challans.

2. 2

   Compute the entitlement independently

   Statutory minimums resolved per site and per jurisdiction, effective-dated — never copied from the contractor's own figures.

3. 3

   Hold payment until the gap closes

   Every finding carries evidence and a rupee value. Invoice gating blocks contractor payment while exposure stays open.

Built for the reckoning

What “evidence” means here

• Every finding links to the source document, the rule version applied, and the computation trace
• Bitemporal records answer what LEKHA knew on any past date — not only what it knows today
• The audit log is hash-chained and verifiable end to end
• Evidence is archived to write-once storage under a seven-year retention lock

Isolation and residency

• Tenant isolation enforced by PostgreSQL row-level security, below the application
• Data resident in India
• Separation of duties on disposal — the approver is never the author
• Role and attribute-based access control, scoped per site
