When a loan is recorded in Zoho Payroll, the system creates a deduction schedule, adds the EMI as a recurring deduction component to the employee&#8217;s payslip each month, and tracks the outstanding balance until full repayment.<\/div>\n<div class=\"gt-section\">\n<h2>Setting Up a Loan in Zoho Payroll<\/h2>\n<p>To record a loan, go to the employee profile, select Loans, enter the loan amount, disbursement date, EMI amount or number of instalments, and interest rate (if applicable). Zoho Payroll creates the repayment schedule and begins deducting from the next pay run. The outstanding loan balance is visible in the employee profile at all times.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<div class=\"gt-section\">\n<h2>Loan Deduction and Net Salary Impact<\/h2>\n<p>Loan EMI deductions reduce net salary each month. They appear as a voluntary deduction on the payslip. Since EMI is not a statutory deduction, it does not affect PF, ESI, or TDS computations. However, if EMI plus statutory deductions reduce net salary below a minimum threshold, the employer should review the loan amount.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<div class=\"gt-section\">\n<h2>Loan Closure and Full Prepayment<\/h2>\n<p>If an employee prepays the loan or exits the company, Zoho Payroll supports a lump-sum loan closure entry. On exit, the outstanding loan balance can be deducted from the final settlement payment. Zoho Payroll tracks the full loan history, including disbursement, monthly deductions, and closure, for audit purposes.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<div class=\"gt-example-box\"><strong>Example:<\/strong> An employee requests a salary loan of Rs 60,000. The company approves repayment in 12 EMIs of Rs 5,000. Zoho Payroll records the loan, adds Rs 5,000 as a monthly deduction from the next pay run, and shows the declining balance in the employee profile. After 12 months, the loan is marked closed automatically.<\/div>\n<div class=\"gt-related-pills\"><a href=\"https:\/\/aaxonix.com\/resources\/glossary\/advance-salary-zoho-payroll\/\" class=\"gt-related-pill sp-content-link\">Advance Salary<\/a><a href=\"https:\/\/aaxonix.com\/resources\/glossary\/deduction-component-zoho-payroll\/\" class=\"gt-related-pill sp-content-link\">Deduction Component<\/a><a href=\"https:\/\/aaxonix.com\/resources\/glossary\/net-salary-zoho-payroll\/\" class=\"gt-related-pill sp-content-link\">Net Salary<\/a><a href=\"https:\/\/aaxonix.com\/resources\/glossary\/payslip-zoho-payroll\/\" class=\"gt-related-pill sp-content-link\">Payslip<\/a><\/div>\n<div class=\"gt-faq-item\"><strong>What is Loan in Zoho Payroll?<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>The Loan module in Zoho Payroll allows employers to record salary loans disbursed to employees and automatically recover them through monthly EMI deductions in the pay run.
