What IS Employer of Record (EOR) IN INDIA?

An Employer of Record (EOR) in India is a third-party service provider that legally employs workers on behalf of another company, often in cases where the company itself does not have a registered presence or entity in India. The EOR handles all administrative, legal, and compliance aspects of employment, providing comprehensive EOR solutions. Meanwhile, the hiring company maintains control over the day-to-day tasks and responsibilities of the employee.


The EOR model is ideal for international companies, including startups, small, and medium-sized businesses, looking to expand into India or hire talent in India without establishing a local subsidiary or branch office. The Employer of Record India takes on the role of the “official” employer, while the foreign company manages the employee’s work and performance, ensuring a seamless and compliant expansion.

How does an Employer of Record (EOR) work?

Under an EOR arrangement, TMS will Onboard the client’s employees onto it’s own payrolls and act as the legal employer for these employees in that specific region.

 

TMS will also perform these following activities as an EOR Partner to the client:-

  • Payroll Management: TMS oversees the entire payroll process, handling salary disbursements, tax deductions, and benefits administration. This ensures precise and timely payments to employees.

  • Compliance Management: TMS verifies that all legal and tax obligations are met, adhering to local and national standards, including labor laws and tax responsibilities.

  • HR Administration: TMS handles various HR functions like onboarding, payroll, leave management, compliance, and exit formalities. As part of our Employer of Record (EOR) solutions, TMS acts as the contact point for employee queries.

  • Contractual Flexibility: We offer flexibility for startups, small, and medium-sized businesses, allowing them to hire on a short-term or project basis without long-term commitments.

  • Risk Management: By outsourcing employment-related legal tasks to TMS, client companies can reduce potential legal and financial risks through our expertise.

  • Global Expansion: TMS facilitates market entry without legal setup. Our Global Employer of Record (EOR) services and EOR services in India enhance agility and cost-effectiveness, enabling businesses to prioritize core operations and growth.

Legal Framework and Compliance IN INDIA

India has a comprehensive set of labor laws, which are often complex and vary across states. Some of the important aspects that an EOR must comply with when hiring employees in India include: 

  • Employment Contracts: The contract must specify the terms of employment, including salary, benefits, job responsibilities, and termination clauses in compliance with Indian labor law. 
  • Statutory Benefits: Indian labor law mandates several benefits for employees, including: 

          Provident Fund (PF): Contributions to the Employees’ Provident Fund (EPF) are mandatory for most employees. 

          Gratuity: Employees are entitled to gratuity after five years of continuous service. 

          Paid Leave: Employees are entitled to annual leave, sick leave, and other statutory leave entitlements. 

          Bonus: Some employees are entitled to a statutory bonus under the Payment of Bonus Act, 1965. 

 

  • Taxation: The EOR ensures that income tax (TDS) is deducted at source from employee salaries and paid to the Indian government. EORs also handle the filing of tax returns and other compliance-related tasks. 
  • Social Security: Indian employees are required to make contributions to social security systems like the Provident Fund (PF) and Employee State Insurance (ESI) if applicable. 

Advantages of Using an EOR in India:

  • Faster Market Entry: Setting up a local entity in India can be time-consuming and costly. EOR solutions allow companies to hire employees in India quickly without having to set up a subsidiary or branch.

  • Reduced Legal Risk: India’s labor laws are complex and can vary significantly by state. EOR solutions ensure compliance with all local regulations, thus minimizing the risk of legal disputes.

  • Cost-Effective: Establishing a local entity requires substantial resources, including office space, HR personnel, and legal support. Using EOR services in India allows companies to avoid these expenses.

  • Focus on Core Operations: Companies can focus on growing their business, managing employees’ work, and expanding their operations, while the EOR handles administrative functions such as payroll, taxes, and legal compliance.

  • Scalability: If a company needs to scale its workforce in India, the EOR can help by quickly onboarding new employees without the need for a legal entity or complex administrative overhead.

  • Global Expansion: For companies looking to expand globally, a Global Employer of Record (EOR) can help manage employees across multiple countries, including India, with a single point of contact for all legal and administrative needs.
