The problem

Hiring in India from abroad breaks in expensive ways.

Three costs that catch out almost every first-time India hire.

An entity takes months
Setting up your own Indian company locks up capital and time before a single person is hired, and unwinding it later is worse.
Compliance penalties land on you
Miss a PF, ESI, or TDS filing and the fines are yours. The New Labour Code changed the math on Basic, DA, and contributions.
Resellers add a hidden layer
Most global EORs rent a local partner. You are one step removed from the people who actually hold your compliance and your data.
The fix

We are the India entity. Your team sits on our registrations.

Versatile is Foo Falcon Technologies Pvt Ltd, a real Indian company. Your employees are hired on our PF registration, our ESIC code, and our Shops and Establishments license. No reseller in the middle.

A named compliance manager owns your account from Day 1, backed by a trained team of compliance experts, a payroll lead, and a senior reviewer for anything sensitive. You get one Slack channel and email replies in 4 to 6 hours.

When we also source the hire, it is the same vendor for recruitment and EOR, and we do not bill for the placement until day 90 of their tenure.

Why Versatile

Six things a reseller cannot give you.

01
USD invoicing
Clean books, no FX exposure. We invoice you in dollars, every month.
02
India-native compliance
Built on the New Labour Code. PF 12%, ESI 3.25%, Basic plus DA at least 50% of CTC.
03
First month free
See it work before you pay. A risk reversal, not a discount.
04
5-day onboarding
Day 1 agreement through to Day 5 payroll scheduled. No drift.
05
No setup or exit fees
$99 to $399 per employee per month. That is the whole price.
06
A named compliance team
A real person owns your account, with India payroll specialists behind them.
