PEO and EOR services in India
Put people on the ground in India before you own an entity there — legally employed, fully compliant and working to your instructions from week one.
Why international brands start with a PEO
Incorporating in India, opening a bank account and completing registrations takes time. A professional employer organisation lets the commercial work begin in parallel.
Hire before you incorporate
Your first country manager or sales engineer can start while incorporation, banking and registrations are still in progress — often the difference between winning and missing a season.
Statutory compliance stays ours
Provident Fund, ESI, professional tax, TDS on salary, gratuity provisioning, shops-and-establishment registration and monthly filings sit with the employer of record, not with your head office.
One predictable invoice
Salary, statutory employer contributions and a service fee arrive as a single monthly invoice, so finance does not have to run an Indian payroll ledger.
A clean exit or conversion
When volumes justify your own entity, employees transfer across with continuity of service. If the market does not work out, you release the team under Indian notice rules without winding up a company.
PEO, EOR or incubation?
PEO
Co-employment. You have an Indian entity (or are establishing one) and outsource payroll, statutory filings and HR administration while retaining the employment contract.
EOR
Full employment. Brandia's entity is the legal employer on record; you direct the work day to day. Used when you have no Indian entity yet.
Incubation
EOR plus a registered address, desk space, expense handling and local management supervision — a working India office without a company of your own.
