Best Employer of Record (EOR) Providers Operating in India
India is the world's largest source of remote engineering and operations talent, and one of the most common markets companies enter through an Employer of Record. Direct employment means registering an entity and navigating Provident Fund (EPF), Employees' State Insurance (ESI), professional tax that varies by state, and gratuity obligations — a real compliance burden for a first hire. An EOR employs your Indian workers through its own entity, running payroll, statutory contributions, and compliance so you can hire in India in days.
The providers below all operate in India — global EOR platforms with Indian entities alongside Asia-Pacific specialists — ranked by the HC Score across 21 verified factors so you can compare owned-entity coverage, compliance, and real customer outcomes.
