Questions, direct answers.

An Employer of Record is the company that legally employs someone on your behalf. Ensaar issues the Indian employment contract, pays the salary in rupees, and files professional tax, TDS and state insurance where it applies. You direct the work day to day. It is how a foreign company hires in India without first registering a company there.

Ensaar's fee starts from $199 per employee per month and is agreed with each client, with no setup fee and no minimum term. For some hires, for example at a high salary, Ensaar may ask for a refundable deposit of one month's total cost before they start, returned when they leave. On top of the fee you pay the salary itself and the statutory employer contributions, both passed through at cost. India specialists generally charge $99 to $399 and global platforms $499 to $699 for the same hire.

Five to ten working days from the point we have the candidate details and documents is typical, and it can be faster when documents arrive clean. If Ensaar is also finding the candidate, add the recruitment time, which depends on the role.

Provident fund at 12% of basic pay, commonly applied on the statutory wage ceiling of Rs 15,000 so about Rs 1,800 a month; state insurance at 3.25% of gross, only where gross is Rs 21,000 a month or below; gratuity accrued at about 4.81% of basic; and professional tax set by each state, typically Rs 200 a month and capped at Rs 2,500 a year. That adds roughly 13% to 18% at junior and mid salaries, and proportionally less at senior salaries because provident fund is capped. Provident fund applies to employers above a size threshold; Ensaar does not currently operate it, and will pass its cost through at cost once it does.

Not automatically, and an EOR does not automatically protect you either. Permanent establishment turns on conduct, mainly whether someone in India habitually concludes contracts in your name or a fixed place of business is treated as yours. An engineer building your product sits differently from a salesperson closing your deals. Ensaar will say which side of that line a role sits on before you hire.

You do. IP assignment and confidentiality terms sit in the employment contract Ensaar issues to the employee, and in the service agreement between Ensaar and you, so the rights land with you rather than with the employer of record.

Yes, and it is worth planning for from the start. When your own subsidiary becomes the cheaper option, Ensaar incorporates it and transfers the team across with their service continuity preserved, which matters for gratuity and for notice. Employees keep their provident fund through their UAN.

Ensaar runs the exit: notice period as written in the contract, final settlement, statutory dues, and the paperwork. Indian dismissal rules are more prescriptive than in the US, so a termination needs cause, documentation, and notice. We will tell you what is possible before you commit to a decision.

A global capability centre is a team in India that belongs to you rather than to a vendor, doing continuing work such as engineering, data, or support. You need one when the work is ongoing and you want the knowledge to stay in your organisation. If the work is a fixed project with an end date, a contract with a services firm is usually the better instrument.

Yes, and most companies should. Ensaar starts teams at three to fifteen people employed through our Employer of Record, which needs no Indian entity, no lease, and no local registration. It tests the operating model, the time zone overlap, and the hiring profile before anything structural is committed.

Usually somewhere past twenty to thirty people. Below that, per-person fees are smaller than the cost and management attention of running an Indian company with its own filings, audit, and compliance calendar. Above it, the arithmetic reverses. The crossover depends on salary levels, so it is worth recalculating rather than assuming.

Seven to ten working days with clean documents. A foreign parent can own 100% under the automatic FDI route in most sectors. You need at least two directors, one of whom must have been resident in India for 182 days or more in the previous calendar year, and that requirement is the most common cause of delay.

On a cost-plus basis: the India entity recovers its costs plus a margin, because it serves only its parent and has no external revenue. Budget 2026 set a uniform 15.5% safe harbour margin for IT and ITeS services and raised the eligibility threshold to Rs 2,000 crore, which keeps most new centres out of transfer pricing disputes.

Recruitment is 8.33% of annual salary per hire, which is one month, charged when the person joins, with a 90-day replacement. Employment through our Employer of Record starts from $199 per person per month, with salary and statutory costs passed through at cost. Converting to your own entity is quoted per engagement once the structure is known.

Sometimes, and sometimes not. Ensaar hires for specific client teams rather than maintaining a standing list of vacancies, so registering puts you in front of us when a matching role appears. We would rather tell you that than publish roles that do not exist.

Ensaar employs you in India and is your legal employer: the contract, payroll, payslips and Form 16 come from us. Your day-to-day work sits with the client company and their managers. It is one job, with employment and work responsibilities split between two organisations.

No, never, for any reason. Our fees are paid by the client company. If someone claiming to represent Ensaar asks you for a placement fee, a training fee, or a deposit, it is not us, and we would like to know about it.

You transfer to it, with your service continuity preserved, which matters for gratuity and notice. If you have a provident fund account from an earlier job, it stays yours through your UAN. This is planned from the first hire rather than handled as an afterthought.

DailyByte is Ensaar's practical AI enablement platform for individuals and enterprises. AI Learn gives learners guided applied work labs, AI Jobs turns a job description into an interactive learning path, and Daily Code lets people choose SQL, Python, Java, TypeScript, or AI work missions aligned to their target role.

The DailyByte approach evaluates whether a person can understand a work brief or job requirement, direct AI effectively, inspect source material, verify important claims, improve weak output, and submit useful proof. This creates separate signals for process, outcome, role readiness, and practical judgment.

Yes. Ensaar can shape a focused cohort pilot around relevant roles, workflows, source material, capability goals, and reporting needs. The purpose is to establish practical evidence of readiness before a larger enablement investment.

BCEP is Ensaar's Business Communication Excellence Program. AI readiness and emotional intelligence are core capabilities across its Leadership Execution, Business Communication, Professional Excellence, and Enterprise Facilitation pathways. Participants complete structured learning, workplace application, and an assessed demonstration before certification.

BCEP offers four pathways: Leadership Execution, Business Communication, Professional Excellence, and Enterprise Facilitator. Each pathway includes AI readiness where relevant, role-relevant application, an assessment rubric, and an Ensaar-issued credential.

BCEP is designed for individual professionals, company-sponsored cohorts, and AI readiness programs. Pathways serve managers and leaders, client-facing and cross-functional professionals, execution-focused business teams, internal enterprise facilitators, and teams preparing for AI-assisted work.

Email support@ensaar.com with the certification pathway, participant profile, AI readiness goal, and whether you are applying individually or for an enterprise cohort. Ensaar will confirm the pathway format, assessment model, and next intake.
