Complete payroll support for New Zealand businesses. We calculate employee pay, manage leave and KiwiSaver, complete payday filing and keep your payroll obligations on schedule.
Payroll is one of the most complex and highest-risk areas of running a business. Errors can lead to Inland Revenue penalties, Holidays Act breaches, employee underpayments and a loss of trust within your team.
Murray Sharma & Associates provides a complete managed payroll service that helps ensure your employees are paid accurately and on time while your tax, KiwiSaver and employment-related obligations are properly managed.
By taking care of payroll administration, calculations and reporting, we give you more time to focus on running your business.

Following Budget 2025, the default contribution rate for employees and employers rose from 3% to 3.5% from 1 April 2026 and is legislated to increase to 4% from 1 April 2028. Employees can temporarily opt to stay at 3%, and 16–17 year olds are now eligible for employer contributions. MSA ensures your contributions are calculated at the correct current rate and remitted on time.
Payday filing requires employers to send employment information to Inland Revenue every time they pay staff, rather than monthly. MSA manages this for you automatically as part of each pay run.
The Holidays Act 2003 is complex to apply, especially for employees with variable or changing hours, which is why underpayments are so common. We calculate entitlements and holiday pay correctly and keep your leave balances accurate.
