Hire your team without company registration in India

Hiring in India doesn’t need to mean outsourcing or losing control. With Kaamwork’s tech-driven Employer of Record (EOR) platform, you can hire the top 5% of Indian talent in as little as 48 hours — no entity setup, no compliance headaches, and no compromises. All this comes at a transparent flat fee of $599 per employee per month.

Why company registration in India slows businesses down

Many U.S. companies enter India expecting a fast setup. Instead, they find themselves buried in forms, waiting on multiple authorities, and paying heavy professional fees long before their first employee walks through the door. Here’s what usually happens:

6–12 months of waiting

Incorporation alone can take half a year or more. In that time, market opportunities pass by.

$300K–$500K in sunk costs

Lawyers, accountants, and admin fees drain budgets before teams are even built.

Fragmented authorities

Each registration — tax, labor, benefits — comes from a different ministry, each with different timelines.

Mandatory benefit programs

Provident Fund, ESIC, and gratuity require payroll deductions, filings, and audits.

Never-ending compliance

Even after setup, monthly and quarterly filings continue. Small errors can mean penalties.

Instead of building a team, leadership ends up managing paperwork. For growing companies, that wasted time and money can be the difference between gaining ground and falling behind.

Why India is still the right place to grow

The obstacles are real, but so are the rewards. India continues to be one of the most attractive destinations for building global teams.

Wide skill advantage

From software and data science to product and analytics, India offers talent that is hard to hire at scale in the U.S.

Scalability

Companies can start with a handful of employees and expand into larger teams without exhausting the talent market.

Cost advantage

Salaries are, on average, 65% lower than U.S. equivalents. Combined with no entity overhead, that creates dramatic savings.

Time-zone overlap

Workdays align enough for collaboration, while also creating continuous cycles of progress when paired with U.S. hours.

Beyond the numbers, India has become a natural extension of global innovation. Large enterprises rely on India for critical engineering functions, while startups use it to scale faster without straining budgets. The environment is collaborative, English-speaking, and technology-first — which makes building cross-border teams smoother than many expect.

Put simply: India offers scale, skill, and cost benefits together. The only real barrier has been access. That’s where Kaamwork changes the equation.

Build your team without building an entity with Kaamwork

Kaamwork’s Employer of Record model gives you a shortcut to hiring in India. Instead of waiting a year for company registration, you can start hiring within days.
Here’s how it works:

You choose the people

We source candidates; you run the interviews and make the hiring decisions.

You keep the culture

Employees use your tools, follow your workflows, and report to your managers.

We take care of compliance

Payroll, taxes, and benefits like PF, ESIC, and gratuity are fully managed.

We provide HR support

From onboarding and equipment to employee engagement and retention, we stay involved.

The outcome is simple: your employees, your culture, your control — without the cost and delay of incorporation.

Why U.S. companies choose Kaamwork

When executives compare options — outsourcing, contractors, or setting up their own entity — Kaamwork stands out for three main reasons.

Speed

Hiring in 48 hours instead of 6–12 months. Some clients start interviews on Monday and onboard employees by Friday.

Savings

Eliminating entity setup saves hundreds of thousands in upfront costs. Add salary savings of up to 65%, and total overhead drops by as much as 80%.

Control

Unlike outsourcing, employees are dedicated to your company alone. You manage them directly and own 100% of your IP.

There’s another reason that often matters most: stability. Attrition in India can reach 30% or more. At Kaamwork, it stays under 5%. That means less disruption, less rehiring, and more continuity.

Engagement models to
match your strategy

No two companies expand the same way. For businesses exploring alternatives to company registration in India, Kaamwork offers models that flex with your goals:

Dedicated team

A full-time India-based team that works as an extension of your U.S. office. You manage daily operations; we cover compliance.

Build-Operate-Transfer (BOT)

Start quickly under Kaamwork, then move the team to your own entity when you’re ready. This option balances speed with long-term independence.

Hybrid/project model

Ideal for pilots, small projects, or specialty positions where you want control without committing to a large team initially.

This flexibility provides the ability to experiment, grow, or pivot without regard to filings and compliance. If you want to start with a lean crew of five or plan to scale to fifty, Kaamwork provides a solution that aligns with your stage of growth.

The benefits of skipping entity setup

Working with Kaamwork instead of registering your own entity delivers clear advantages:

comply
