Frequently Asked Questions
What payroll compliances are mandatory for foreign-owned Indian entities?
Foreign-owned Indian entities must comply with Provident Fund (PF), Employee State Insurance (ESIC), Professional Tax (state-specific), TDS on salary (Form 24Q), and applicable labour law registers. Specific requirements depend on employee headcount, state of operation, and industry sector.
Can Inaac Advisors handle payroll for both EOR employees and direct employees?
Yes. We handle payroll for employees on your Indian entity payroll as well as employees managed under Inaac-managed payroll/EOR arrangements. Both can be managed under a unified compliance framework.
What is the difference between PF and ESIC?
Provident Fund (PF) is a retirement savings scheme applicable to establishments with 20 or more employees, with both employer and employee contributions. ESIC (Employee State Insurance) is a health and social security scheme applicable to employees earning up to a specified wage threshold. Both are mandatory statutory contributions in India.
How does Inaac handle multi-state payroll compliance?
We manage state-specific professional tax registrations, Shops & Establishment registrations, and labour law compliance across all states where your employees are located — including Pune, Bengaluru, Hyderabad, Delhi NCR, Mumbai, and Chennai.
What happens during employee offboarding?
We manage full and final settlement calculations including gratuity, leave encashment, PF withdrawal or transfer, ESIC closure, and issuance of all required statutory documents including Form 16 and experience letters.
