Hiring in India from the UAE?
Here's what you're actually signing up for.

Without Saileor, expanding into India means navigating a maze of regulations, hidden costs, and bureaucratic delays.

⏱️

6+ Months to Set Up an Entity

Registering a company in India means navigating MCA filings, GST, TAN, PAN, EPFO — a process that takes months and stalls your hiring plans.

Cost: AED 120,000+ in legal & setup fees
📋

Compliance Nightmare

India has 28 states with different labor laws, PF rules, professional tax slabs, and mandatory gratuity calculations. One mistake = penalties.

Risk: Fines up to ₹25 lakhs per violation
💸

Hidden Payroll Costs

Statutory contributions (PF, ESI, gratuity, bonus) add 15–30% on top of gross salary. Most founders discover this after signing the offer letter.

Impact: 20–30% budget overrun
🏦

Cross-Border Payment Chaos

AED → INR conversions, banking fees, forex delays, and the ever-changing FEMA regulations make every payroll cycle a headache.

Lost: 3–5% per transaction in hidden fees
🔒

IP & Contract Risks

Without proper local contracts, your IP assignment clauses may not hold up in Indian courts. Protecting your work product requires local legal expertise.

Exposure: Unprotected intellectual property
🎯

Distraction from Core Business

Every hour spent on India admin is an hour not spent closing deals in Dubai, Abu Dhabi, or Riyadh. Founders shouldn't be HR managers.

Opportunity cost: Priceless
