Build Your India Team Seamlessly with SynkPay
When it comes to onboarding talent in India and growing your engineering team, foreign companies face massive challenges — from understanding Indian employment law to managing payroll and tax compliance. Without proper support, companies can expect delays, extra costs, and endless paperwork, which will clearly slow their India hiring and raise their costs.
Complex Indian Regulations
India has its own labour laws, taxes, and statutory requirements — PF, ESI, professional tax, TDS, and more. Without local expertise, staying compliant becomes a major challenge.
High Administrative Costs
Setting up an Indian entity and running local payroll is costly and slow. Without the right partner, HR and compliance expenses quickly exceed hiring budgets.
Slow Hiring in India
Manual onboarding, contract management, and compliance checks delay hiring. Without streamlined systems, your time-to-hire in India increases significantly.

Frequently Asked Questions
What founders and ops leads ask before hiring engineers in India through an EOR — cost, onboarding speed, benefits, and how we compare.
Can I hire someone in India without setting up an Indian entity?
Yes — that's exactly what we do. As your Employer of Record, SynkPay becomes the legal employer of your India hire on paper, so you don't need to register a company, open an Indian bank account, or navigate state-by-state labour registration. You direct the work day to day; we handle the compliant employment contract, payroll, and all statutory filings. It's fully legal under Indian law and it's the fastest way to make your first India hire without a local entity.
How much does it cost to hire in India through SynkPay?
Our EOR fee is a flat $349 per employee per month. That's it — no setup fee, no salary tiers, and no country surcharges, whether you're hiring a junior engineer or a senior one earning the equivalent of USD 100,000 a year. You pay your employee's salary on top of that, but the SynkPay fee never changes with the salary. Recruitment, background verification, and HR outsourcing are separate optional services, not part of the $349.
How fast can you onboard my India hire?
Standard onboarding takes 1 business day, and we've completed same-day onboarding for urgent cases. Most of the clock depends on you — once you send us complete candidate details and approve the offer, we issue the India-compliant contract, register the employee for Provident Fund and ESI, and set up payroll. If you've already found your candidate, we can usually have them employed and starting almost immediately.
Do I have to pay a deposit, and when am I billed?
No deposit, ever. We invoice the monthly salary plus the $349 EOR fee at the start of each month and pay your employee at the end of the month — a standard payroll-in-advance cycle, with no working capital locked away. That's a deliberate difference from deposit-based global EORs, some of which hold a full month's gross salary upfront per employee. With SynkPay, your cash stays in your account until it's actually due.
What benefits and protections do my India employees get?
Every employee we hire for you is enrolled in India's statutory benefits — Provident Fund (PF), Employees' State Insurance (ESI) where applicable, and paid statutory leave — all handled within the $349 fee. Every contract we issue also includes automatic IP assignment, confidentiality, trade-secret, non-solicitation, and return-of-materials provisions enforceable under Indian law, so work product belongs to your company. These are standard in every contract, not a premium add-on.
Which currencies can I be billed in?
We bill in eight currencies so you can pay in the one that suits your business: US Dollar (USD), Australian Dollar (AUD), British Pound (GBP), Euro (EUR), Canadian Dollar (CAD), New Zealand Dollar (NZD), Singapore Dollar (SGD), and Indian Rupee (INR). Your employee in India is always paid in INR; the currency you choose only affects how we invoice you.
Why SynkPay instead of a global EOR like Deel or Remote?
We do one thing: hire people in India for foreign companies, through a directly owned India entity we've run since 2016. Global platforms cover 150+ countries and treat India as one of many — we've operated through GST reform, PF threshold changes, and multiple labour-code updates that span four years before some India-specialist competitors even existed. You get a flat $349/month, 1-business-day onboarding, no deposit, and a human on the other end of the line instead of a ticket queue.
