EOR for Growth and Mid-Market Companies in India

Scale from 10 to 300+ India hires, across any state, at $99 flat.

Last updated: October 23, 2026 · Reviewed by the Husys India EOR Payroll & Compliance Team

EOR for growth companies in India has to do more than make a first hire. Husys onboards up to 67 people a day, keeps every state compliant with 100% payroll accuracy, takes you off a costly global EOR, and moves you to your own entity when the numbers say so.

Switch from your current EOR

112 companies have switched to Husys. Here's how it works.

Leaving an EOR is harder than joining one. Most of the delay and cost sits with the provider you're leaving, so we plan the move around them.

What the outgoing provider usually brings

  • $30–150 per head in termination fees
  • Various other offboarding fees
  • Around 30 days to close each employee's account
  • Most of the delay clients feel during a switch

For 45 employees, termination fees alone come to $1,350–6,750 (45 × $30 to 45 × $150). Check your current contract for exit terms.

What Husys brings

  • About 10 days to set up your account
  • Same-day onboarding for each employee, as soon as the old provider releases them
  • No delay in salaries
  • MSA signed and ESS logins issued at onboarding
  • Your first month of Husys fees free

The switch we recommend: move gradually, not all at once

  1. Sign up with HusysMSA signed. Account set up in about 10 days.
  2. Freeze the old providerStop adding employees there. New hires go straight onto Husys payroll.
  3. List every employeeInclude each person's UAN and a column to tick off each document and transfer.
  4. Move in batchesThe old provider completes offboarding; Husys onboards each person the same day, with ESS logins and no salary gap.
  5. Close outCheck the list: every employee on Husys payroll, every document collected, every old account closed.
Why gradual? Exit fees and 30-day account closures make a single cut-over risky. Moving in batches keeps payroll running, spreads the outgoing provider's fees, and means no employee is ever between employers.

Documents each employee needs before leaving the old provider

Collect these for every person on your list before their old account closes. Ask for the UAN early: many providers only share it on request.

EOR vs entity at your size

Cost isn't the only test. An entity also brings an India HR and finance team, annual audits, a resident director and 10–16 weeks of setup. Most companies move when they sell to Indian customers, pass 20–25 employees, or have run the team for 2–3 years. EOR vs entity: the full guide →

Entity estimate from the Husys entity vs EOR calculator. Running costs usually rise with headcount, so "$24,000+" is a floor. Break-even: $24,000 ÷ $1,188 a year per employee ≈ 21; $49,000 ÷ $1,188 ≈ 42. A volume discount on Husys fees moves both points higher.

  • Central and state labour-code changes tracked and flagged on your weekly call
