Chennai High-Rise Builder Saves ₹1.2 Lakh/Month by Eliminating Attendance Fraud
TVS Constructions - Chennai, Tamil Nadu
Key Results
The Challenge
TVS Constructions was building a 20-floor residential tower in Chennai with over 320 workers across 3 active floors and a ground-level staging area. Supervisors at each floor maintained separate attendance registers, and the company discovered that ghost workers were being marked present across multiple floors. Monthly wage bills were inflated by over ₹1.2 lakh due to duplicate entries and buddy-punching. Verifying attendance across floors was impossible with paper registers.
The Solution
TVS Constructions rolled out Yojo's multi-site attendance system with floor-wise tracking. Each floor was set up as a separate zone, and supervisors mark attendance through the app with GPS and timestamp verification. The system automatically flags duplicate entries and unusual patterns. The site manager reviews a single consolidated dashboard showing real-time headcount per floor. Monthly payroll is now auto-generated from verified attendance data only.
The Impact
- Eliminated attendance fraud completely, saving ₹1.2 lakh monthly
- Tracked 320+ workers across 3 active floors with GPS-verified attendance
- Automated duplicate detection flagged and removed 28 ghost entries in month one
- Reduced payroll processing time from 3 days to 4 hours monthly
- Real-time floor-wise headcount improved safety evacuation planning
"We had no idea how much we were losing to attendance fraud until we deployed Yojo. In the first month itself, the system flagged 28 duplicate entries across floors. We are now saving ₹1.2 lakh every month, and our payroll is finally accurate. For high-rise projects, this level of tracking is essential."
