KRAKey Result Area

A KRA is a major area of responsibility for a role, against which specific measurable KPIs are set and assessed in the appraisal.

A sales role might have KRAs for revenue, pipeline and retention, each with KPIs and weights adding to 100 percent. Ratings roll up from KPI achievement.

KRAs describe what the job is for; KPIs measure it.

In Indian payroll

KRA-based appraisals remain the norm in Indian mid-size companies. Weights and targets set in April should be locked so the October conversation is about results.
