The rapid development in information and communication technology (ICT) has resulted in changes in the working patterns and processes in companies. This has led to greater adoption of Internet based working processes and advanced version of
electronic technologies for generating fast and efficient outputs. Organisations are progressively incorporating new technologies such as web based processes and information systems in their various functions. As human resources are one of the major assets of an organisation, they need to be effectively managed. The human resource management practices adopted by the organisation play a vital role in acquiring sustainable competitive advantage and achieving success. HRM works as a catalyst that enhances and bridges the policies and practices of the company with its people (Pearlson,2009).In today's competitive and dynamic environment, it is crucial for every organisation to transform HRM practices into electronic HRM (e-HRM) for effective management of its people. The main objective of this paper is to study the extent to which various universities and their affiliated colleges are using e HRM practices and are benefited thereof. The study provides some insights into the application and implementation of e HRM in private or state owned Universities and help HRM practitioners to get better understanding of the uses, benefits and problems in its adoption.
