What is EOR?
Not a local company.
Still a local employer.
When US businesses want to hire someone in India, the usual route is registering a subsidiary — months of paperwork, compliance unknowns, and ongoing admin overhead.
With an EOR, we step in as the official employer on paper. You find the person, agree on the salary, and manage their day-to-day work. We handle the contracts, run payroll under Indian law, file taxes, and carry the legal liability.
Because Gebus is a CA firm — not just an HR agency — the compliance side is handled by qualified accountants who know Indian tax law firsthand.
We carry the compliance liability
Labor law, statutory filings, and employer obligations sit with Gebus — not with your US entity.
We generate the employment contract
Every agreement is jurisdiction-specific and drafted under the applicable Indian state law.
We run payroll under Indian law
Monthly payroll, PF and ESI contributions, TDS withholding — all computed and deposited correctly.
The Process
How it works
01
Tell us who you need
Role, location in India, salary range, and start date. That's enough for us to begin. No lengthy intake forms.
02
We set up the employment
We draft the offer letter and employment contract under Indian law, register the employee for PF, ESI, and Professional Tax, and run the first payroll.
03
You manage, we maintain
You run the work. We handle monthly payroll, TDS deposits, annual Form 16 issuance, and any statutory filings. One less thing on your plate.

CA-Led Compliance
The Regulatory Framework
“Our CA background means compliance isn’t a checkbox. We catch problems before they become penalties.”
FAQ
Questions we get from US clients
Do I need to open a company in India to hire someone there?+
No. With an EOR, we're the legal employer. Your US business doesn't need an Indian PAN number, GST registration, or a local bank account to put someone on payroll.
How long does it take to get someone on payroll?+
Usually 4–7 business days from signed offer letter to first payroll cycle. Statutory registrations (PF, ESI) run in parallel and don't block the start date.
What mandatory benefits does an employee in India receive?+
Provident Fund (12% employer contribution), ESI if the salary is under ₹21,000/month, Gratuity after 5 years of service, and paid leave under the applicable state Shops & Establishments Act.
What's the difference between an EOR and a staffing agency?+
A staffing agency recruits. An EOR is the legal employer. We don't place candidates — you find your own person and we handle the employment structure, compliance, and payroll.
Can you handle terminations?+
Yes. We manage the notice period, calculate full & final settlement, issue relieving letters, and handle PF and ESI exit formalities so the separation is clean on both sides.
