Kredily generates HR letters (offer, joining, experience, relieving, salary certificate) from templates, and Form 16 for tax. Employees can request letters; admins approve and release them.

Admin โ€” generate a letter

  1. Go to the Letter Generation module.
  2. Pick the letter type and the employee.
  3. Review the template (the fields auto-fill from the employee's record), then generate and release it. Once released, the employee can preview/download it.

Employee โ€” request a letter

  1. Click New Letter (top-left of the letters area).
  2. Choose the letter type and add a reason.
  3. Submit. After your HR approves the request, you'll get an option to preview or download the letter on your device.

Form 16

Form 16 is generated seasonally, after the financial year:

  1. Go to Payroll โ†’ Statutory โ†’ Form 16 (Form 24Q sits alongside it).
  2. First download Part A & Part B from TRACES (the government portal).
  3. Upload Part A & Part B into Kredily.
  4. Generate Form 16 for your employees.

Kredily can't produce Part A/B itself โ€” those come from TRACES. Kredily merges them into the employee's Form 16.

Common issues

  • Letter generation error โ€” usually a missing field on the employee's record (e.g. designation, date of joining, CTC) that the template needs. Complete the profile and retry.
  • Employee can't download โ€” the request hasn't been approved/released yet, or the letter type needs a template configured.
  • Form 16 won't generate โ€” Part A/B haven't been uploaded, or were uploaded for the wrong PAN/quarter. Re-download from TRACES and re-upload.

When to contact support

A template is configured and fields are complete but generation still errors โ€” raise a ticket with the employee ID and letter type.
