The Challenge
What breaks when you
go it alone in India
Mid-sized global manufacturers face a specific set of India-entry problems that generalist HR firms are not equipped to solve.
No entity, no employer — who signs the offer letter?
Most foreign companies can't legally employ in India without a registered entity. Setup takes 3–6 months. Your hiring stops before it starts.
PF, ESIC, PT, gratuity — one missed filing, one labour notice
India's statutory compliance landscape is complex and unforgiving. Foreign companies routinely get it wrong, exposing themselves to penalties and disputes.
Generalist recruiters who don't know manufacturing
Placing a Plant HR Head or EHS Manager requires sector fluency. Generic staffing firms send CVs. You need someone who knows the roles.
Hiring timelines stretch to 6+ months
Without a local sourcing network, roles stay open. Your GCC launch slips. The ROI case you built for the board starts to erode.
Wrong hires cost ₹8–15L each in manufacturing roles
Between notice periods, replacement searches, and lost productivity, a single bad hire in a white collar manufacturing role is expensive and disruptive.
Your first 20 hires set the culture — permanently
Early team composition defines how your India operation runs for years. Getting these hires right isn't optional — it's the foundation of the whole GCC.
