The 10 Best Virtual Assistant Companies in India

Best Virtual Assistant Companies in India
TL;DR
  • The ten virtual assistant companies in India worth shortlisting in 2026 are GetFriday, Brickwork India, VirtualEmployee, Acelerar Technologies, TaskVirtual, IndianVA, Virtual Assistants India, Hire My Assistants, AM2PM Support and Wisemonk.
  • Employing a dedicated virtual assistant in India through an EOR runs about $482 a month all in, against roughly $800 to $1,280 for a full-time-equivalent agency retainer from the five third-party companies here that publish a rate.
  • A company registered in India does not always mean an assistant sitting in India, so this list states where each provider's assistants work and which ones name their Indian offices.
  • Six of the ten publish a rate and four do not, so the closing checklist covers what to confirm on a provider's own site before you sign.

Virtual assistant companies in India range from long-established firms with named Indian offices and published price tables to brands that never say where their assistants sit. This list covers ten of them, what each one publishes on its own site, and what employing your own assistant in India costs instead.

Which are the 10 best virtual assistant companies in India in 2026?

GetFriday, Brickwork India, VirtualEmployee, Acelerar Technologies, TaskVirtual, IndianVA, Virtual Assistants India, Hire My Assistants and AM2PM Support are the nine third-party providers worth shortlisting in 2026. The table below shows where each one's assistants sit, who each one suits, and whether a rate is published on its own site.

The list runs from the longest-established firms down to the smallest and least documented, and the last entry is us.

This page ranks providers you can buy assistant time from. If what you actually want is your own employee, the salary bands by seniority, the fully loaded cost and the evaluation criteria for that route are set out in Hire Administrative Assistants in India: Cost & Process.

1. GetFriday

GetFriday has delivered virtual assistant services from India since 2005 and is owned by TTK Services Pvt Ltd, part of the Indian TTK Group.

Each client gets a named assistant with a backup team behind them, and work draws down from a credit balance rather than being billed as raw hours. General tasks draw fewer credits than specialist work.

Who is GetFriday best for?

Buyers who want to see a published price and a full tier ladder before booking a sales call. It also suits teams whose work mixes routine admin with occasional specialist tasks, since both draw on one balance.

Where the assistants sit: In India. The site describes its people as based out of India and names TTK Services Pvt Ltd, an Indian company, as owner and operator.

Key features:

  • Named assistant with a backup team: cover continues when your assistant is away.
  • Tier ladder from Basic to Plus: Basic covers 5, 10 and 20 hours; Plus runs 40 up to 160.
  • Credit-based billing: four credits per assistant hour, eight or more for specialist work.
  • Weekend cover at a higher credit draw: out-of-hours work uses the same balance faster.
  • Pay-as-you-go entry option: a monthly account fee billed whether or not you use it, hours at a higher rate.

Pricing: Published on its own site; the rate and its full-time equivalent are in the pricing table below.

Pros: A full published tier table with an hourly rate against every plan, plus a history back to 2005.

Cons: The credit system takes working out before you can compare it against a straight hourly quote.

Where the work is mostly keying, cleaning and document handling, that job has its own economics in Outsourcing Data Entry to India: Costs, Models, and Risks.

2. Brickwork India

Brickwork India began in 2005 in Bangalore, built around a remote executive assistant model, and its footer names the entity as Brickwork India Private Limited.

It sells executive admin alongside research and consulting support, runs a 24x7 operating model with business continuity planning, and serves clients in more than 170 countries. A named account manager sits between you and the assistant.

Who is Brickwork India best for?

Companies that need coverage outside their own working hours and want an account manager owning the relationship. It also suits buyers whose delegation goes past scheduling into structured research.

Where the assistants sit: In India, at its Bangalore headquarters, which the company names on its own site and in its footer.

Key features:

  • 24x7 operating model with continuity planning: cover runs across time zones with a fallback behind it.
  • Named account manager: one point of contact for scope, quality and escalation.
  • Executive admin plus research: the work extends into research and consulting support.
  • Clients in more than 170 countries: long exposure to cross-border working patterns.
  • Bangalore delivery base: one named Indian location rather than a general claim.

Pricing: Not published on its own site.

Pros: Round-the-clock cover with a managed relationship rather than a self-serve dashboard.

Cons: You have to ask for a quote, which makes early budgeting slower.

Support work follows much the same buying pattern, and we break that category down in Customer Service Outsourcing to India: A Complete Guide.

3. VirtualEmployee

VirtualEmployee says it has been placing dedicated remote staff for 18 years, so from about 2008, and names three Indian locations: New Delhi NCR, a Noida Special Economic Zone facility, and Kolkata.

Its model sits closer to a remote employee than a task queue. One provider-employed person works your hours on your work, and the same model is sold for developers, AI specialists, SEO and legal or medical writers.

Who is VirtualEmployee best for?

Companies that want one assistant behaving like an employee rather than a shared seat. It also suits buyers who expect to add technical or professional roles to the same arrangement later.

Where the assistants sit: In India, at New Delhi NCR, the Noida SEZ facility, or Kolkata. The site names no single headquarters.

Key features:

  • Dedicated remote employee model: one person assigned to you, not a rotating pool.
  • Three named Indian locations: New Delhi NCR, a Noida SEZ site, and Kolkata.
  • Provider-employed staff: the assistant works for the company, not as a freelancer you source.
  • Role breadth beyond admin: developers, AI specialists, SEO and writing roles use the same model.
  • Long operating history: among the longer-running firms in this category.

Pricing: Not published on its own site. Its pricing URL returns a 404.

Pros: The closest thing on this list to an employee without you taking on the employment.

Cons: No published rate, so the first real number arrives after a sales conversation.

Buyers who reach this point often want the employment route instead, which is set out in How to Hire Employees in India Without an Entity: A Guide.

4. Acelerar Technologies

Acelerar Technologies was founded in 2010 and delivers from Lucknow in Uttar Pradesh and Gurugram in Haryana, with a US headquarters in Seattle handling client relationships.

It positions pre-trained teams deployed in seven days: assistants arrive trained on common business tools and report to a dedicated account manager, so you brief an outcome rather than supervising hour by hour. Your primary contact is US-based.

Who is Acelerar Technologies best for?

Companies that want a managed group of specialists and a US-hours account contact rather than a single generalist. It suits buyers who would rather brief an outcome than run someone's day.

Where the assistants sit: In India, at Lucknow and Gurugram; account management sits in Seattle.

Key features:

  • Two named Indian delivery sites: Lucknow in Uttar Pradesh and Gurugram in Haryana.
  • Seattle account management: a US-hours contact for scope and escalation.
  • Published plans from 20 to 160 hours: every tier carries a monthly price.
  • Pre-trained specialists: assistants arrive with a functional skill, not general admin only.
  • Annual billing discount: paying yearly costs less than month to month.

Pricing: Published on its own site; the rate and its full-time equivalent are in the pricing table below.

Pros: Specialist skills, published plans and a US-hours account contact inside one arrangement.

Cons: Only the top two tiers give you a dedicated assistant; the lower tiers share one.

Scoping the work first makes this conversation shorter, and What Services Can Be Outsourced to India? Full 2026 Guide is a reasonable starting point.

5. TaskVirtual

TaskVirtual sells assistant time in fixed monthly hour blocks, from a five-hour starter block up to a full month, with a one-time pay-as-you-go entry as well. Its footer carries a Kolkata, West Bengal street address and a US phone number, with no company entity named beside it.

It states its own definitions in writing: a full-time month is 160 hours at eight hours a day, and part-time is 100 hours at four and a half hours a day. That is the definition every rate in the table below is normalised against.

Who is TaskVirtual best for?

Buyers who want to fix a monthly hour block and a monthly price before any conversation about scope. It suits anyone comparing vendors who needs one honest full-time definition to normalise against.

Where the assistants sit: Its footer address is in Kolkata; the site does not say where the assistants themselves work.

Key features:

  • Fixed monthly hour blocks: plans run from five hours up to a full month.
  • A stated full-time month: 160 hours at eight hours daily, the benchmark this page uses.
  • A stated part-time month: 100 hours at four and a half hours daily.
  • One-time pay-as-you-go entry: a way in without a monthly commitment.
  • Kolkata address in the footer: an Indian street address, with no entity named.

Pricing: Published on its own site; the rate and its full-time equivalent are in the pricing table below.

Pros: Hour blocks and prices are both published, so you can budget before you talk to anyone.

Cons: The site never states where the assistants are based, which is worth asking in writing.

Comparing that against a direct hire is the next question, and it is answered in How Much Does It Cost to Hire an Employee in India.

6. IndianVA

IndianVA operates from an office in Visakhapatnam, Andhra Pradesh, and says its assistants work from that office, which is a stronger location claim than most providers on this list make. It states no founding date.

It sells one-time tasks, hourly work, part-time cover and full-time assistants side by side, sets a minimum of three years' experience for its people, and offers 24x7 availability. That mix suits buyers whose volume moves month to month.

Who is IndianVA best for?

Small teams with an uneven workload that want one provider for occasional tasks and steady part-time cover at once. It also suits buyers who want a stated office rather than a general India claim.

Where the assistants sit: In India, at its Visakhapatnam office, which the site says its assistants work from.

Key features:

  • Four engagement types: one-time, hourly, part-time and full-time in one place.
  • Assistants working from its own office: an explicit claim most peers here do not make.
  • Minimum three years of experience: a stated floor rather than an open pool.
  • 24x7 availability: cover is not limited to one shift.
  • One-time task option: useful for testing the service before a retainer.

Pricing: Not published on its own site. Its plan and pricing page carries plan names and no figures at all.

Pros: The mix of one-off and ongoing work is unusual at this size of provider.

Cons: Every option needs a quote, so nothing can be budgeted from the site alone.

If the work is high-volume and repeatable, a role hire may beat a retainer, and Hire Data Entry Operators in India: Salary & Cost Guide covers that comparison.

7. Virtual Assistants India

Virtual Assistants India runs an on-demand model and publishes a starting hourly rate, which most of its peers do not. It states availability as usually Monday to Friday, 365 days, 24x7 on demand, and that qualifier is the company's own.

Schedules are built around the client's working day rather than a fixed shift, so the commitment starts lower than a monthly retainer. The site names no city anywhere.

Who is Virtual Assistants India best for?

Buyers who want an hourly arrangement they can shape around their own calendar rather than a fixed monthly block. It suits a first delegation where the volume is still unknown.

Where the assistants sit: In India, per the company's own site, which does not name a city anywhere.

Key features:

  • Published starting hourly rate: a number sits on the page before you enquire.
  • On-demand availability: stated as usually Monday to Friday, 365 days, 24x7 on demand.
  • Flexible scheduling: hours can be spread across your working day.
  • Hourly rather than retainer-first: a lower commitment at the start.
  • Self-reported scale figures: its staff, client and project counters are its own and unverified.

Pricing: Published on its own site; the rate and its full-time equivalent are in the pricing table below.

Pros: An hourly rate on the page, plus schedule flexibility across time zones.

Cons: No delivery city is named, and the scale counters cannot be checked.

Outbound calling is a common first delegation here, and it has its own hiring pattern in Hire Appointment Setters in India: Salary, Cost & Process.

8. Hire My Assistants

Hire My Assistants delivers from Goregaon West in Mumbai through the Indian entity Hire My Assistants KPO LLP, and holds a US subsidiary, Assign Your Task, Inc., in Chesapeake, Virginia.

That structure gives US buyers a domestic contracting counterparty while delivery happens in India. It sells part-time cover at four hours a day and full-time cover at eight, with a dedicated assistant on both plans and two published hourly tiers.

Who is Hire My Assistants best for?

US companies that want an hourly arrangement and prefer contracting with a US-registered entity. It suits buyers who want a dedicated person even on the part-time plan.

Where the assistants sit: In India, in Mumbai; the US subsidiary handles contracting rather than delivery.

Key features:

  • Two named legal entities: Hire My Assistants KPO LLP in India, Assign Your Task, Inc. in Virginia.
  • US contracting counterparty: a domestic entity for US buyers who need one.
  • Published hourly tiers: two rates stated openly on the site.
  • Part-time and full-time day lengths: four hours a day or eight.
  • Dedicated assistant on both plans: not a shared pool at either level.

Pricing: Published on its own site; the rate and its full-time equivalent are in the pricing table below.

Pros: Published hourly rates and a US contracting entity in the same package.

Cons: The published tiers say little about what actually changes between them.

Founders buying at the senior end of this market usually want a different profile, covered in How US Startups Hire Executive Assistants in India.

9. AM2PM Support

AM2PM Support describes itself as a CSaaS and BPO company operating PAN India, with a team stated as 30 or more experts. It names no city anywhere on its site.

Assistant work sits alongside call centre, live chat, ticket management and data entry, so the assistant line is one item in a wider back-office list rather than the whole business. No delivery model or price is published for it.

Who is AM2PM Support best for?

Buyers with a small budget who want an Indian-registered provider and will establish scope and price by conversation. It suits anyone who values a short chain of command over documentation.

Where the assistants sit: In India, described as PAN India. The site names no city.

Key features:

  • An Indian-registered provider: India-based, with no city named on the site.
  • PAN India coverage claim: the company describes reach across the country.
  • Published team size: stated as 30 or more experts, one of only two here that publishes one.
  • Assistant work inside a wider list: call centre, live chat, ticket management and data entry.
  • Customer case studies: named outcomes stand in place of a price list.

Pricing: Not published on its own site.

Pros: A small, Indian-registered provider for buyers who want a short chain of command.

Cons: The thinnest documentation of the nine third parties, so everything needs confirming in writing.

10. Wisemonk

Wisemonk helps global companies hire, manage and pay dedicated talent in India, including administrative and executive assistant roles, without setting up a local entity. The difference from an agency retainer is the employment relationship: the person is employed on an Indian contract, works only for the client, and does not rotate through a shared pool.

Who is Wisemonk best for?

Companies that want one named person on their own payroll in India rather than an agency seat. It suits buyers who expect to add more India roles after the first one.

Where the assistants sit: In India, employed by Wisemonk on Indian employment contracts.

Key features:

  • Dedicated employees rather than shared agency seats: the person works for one client alone.
  • Recruitment to the client's brief: sourcing and shortlisting against the role described.
  • Payroll and benefits administration: salary, statutory contributions and benefits run monthly.
  • Employment, HR and Indian labour-law compliance: contracts, leave and exits in one place.
  • Onboarding and room to scale: the same setup takes a client from one hire to a team.

Pricing: From $99 per employee per month as of August 2026, on top of the employee's salary. Details sit on the Wisemonk pricing page.

Pros: One named employee on a compliant Indian contract, with the employment work handled.

Cons: Not the right fit for scattered one-off tasks that never add up to a role.

Want a dedicated assistant in India on your own payroll?

Tell us the role and we will show you what it costs to employ that person in India.

How much does a virtual assistant from India actually cost?

Employing a dedicated assistant-class hire in India costs about $482 a month all in, including our fee, based on a mid-level virtual assistant salary band. The five third-party companies here that publish a rate work out at roughly $800 to $1,280 a month at their own full-time definition of 160 hours.

Six of the ten companies here publish a rate on their own site and four do not, so a majority of this category will tell you a price before you talk to anyone. That is the opposite of the near-silence you find in most vendor categories.

TaskVirtual is the only company here that states plainly what a full-time month means to it, at 160 hours and eight hours a day. The table below normalises every published rate against that same monthly hour count rather than one we picked ourselves.

Published virtual assistant rates normalised to TaskVirtual's stated full-time month of 160 hours
CompanyPublished rateFull-time-equivalent monthlyVersus employing directly
Hire My Assistants$5 to $6 per hour$800 to $9601.7x to 2.0x
Virtual Assistants India$5.98 per hourabout $9572.0x
Acelerar Technologies$960 per month, Scale plan$9602.0x
TaskVirtual$999 per month, full-time plan$9992.1x
GetFriday$1,280 per month, Plus plan$1,2802.7x

That employment figure includes our own fee, which is deliberate. An agency retainer also carries the agency's margin inside it, so comparing a fee-inclusive employer of record (EOR) cost against a retainer is the only fair basis for the comparison.

The salary input is the mid-level virtual assistant band in India, around three to six years of experience. Treat the total as an estimate rather than a quote: it assumes a standard salary structure split, and professional tax is set at state level rather than centrally, so the figure moves with where the person lives.

You can rerun the same calculation with your own salary number in our prefilled employee cost calculator.

Virtual assistant agencies price by the hour or by a monthly retainer and carry margin, supervision and substitution rights inside that rate, which is why an agency quote and a salary are not the same kind of number.

A retainer also buys you no employment relationship, no notice period, and the ability to stop next month, and those are real differences from the arrangements compared in Independent Contractor vs EOR Employee: US Guide.

If you employ the person yourself, the employer obligations move to you: Provident Fund, Employees' State Insurance, gratuity, and professional tax at state level. The rates, thresholds and filing dates change, so we keep them on our guide to PF, ESI and gratuity payroll compliance rather than restating them here.

The figures here compare an agency retainer with an all-in employment cost, which are two different kinds of purchase. The salary bands behind that employment cost, by seniority, live on the administrative assistant page linked earlier and are not restated.

For the full picture on what an India hire adds up to beyond salary, read Cost of Employment in India: What Employers Pay (2026).

Where do the assistants actually sit when a company says it is based in India?

Not always in India. Several providers marketed as Indian virtual assistant companies are registered elsewhere or never state an assistant location on their own pages, while GetFriday, Acelerar Technologies and VirtualEmployee all name specific Indian offices and Indian delivery teams. Ask where the person doing your work is employed, in writing, before you sign.

The gap decides three things: the hours the person actually works, the law their contract sits under, and who you escalate to when the work stops. None of those are visible from a listicle entry.

Time zone overlap is the one buyers notice first. Our notes on Work Culture in India 2026: Guide for US & UK Employers are worth reading before you set a schedule, because the answer changes what you should ask for in the contract.

Which companies did not make this list, and why?

Three names that appear on other round-ups did not clear the India-delivery test, on the evidence of their own sites:

  • Ossisto: its own site describes virtual assistants from the USA.
  • Wishup: the only office on its site is in Dover, Delaware, and its assistant pages are organised by client market rather than by where the assistants work.
  • OkayRelax: the only location its About page names is the Philippines, where its founder moved in 2016.

None of that makes them poor providers. It means an India label on a list is not the same thing as an assistant employed in India.

Once the person is in place, the management problem starts, and what works is collected in Managing Offshore Teams in India: A Practical 2026 Playbook.

How do you check a virtual assistant company in India before you sign?

Read the provider's own site for four things: where the assistants are employed, whether a rate is published, who supervises and substitutes the person, and what happens to your data. CyberPundits, a name that still circulates on other lists, now serves a domain listed for sale, so confirm the company still trades.

Who employs the assistant is the question that decides what you are allowed to ask for, and it is the one buyers skip most often. Our overview of Employment Outsourcing Services in India (2026) sets out how the models differ on that point.

What should you confirm on the provider's own site?

  • Where the assistants are employed: a registered office in India is not the same as an assistant working in India, so ask for the employing entity by name.
  • Whether a rate is published: a published tier tells you the shape of the deal before a sales call, and tells you what changes between plans.
  • Who supervises and substitutes: if the provider can swap the person, ask on what notice, with what handover, and what vetting was done before assignment.
  • What happens to your data: name the systems the assistant will touch, the access level each one needs, and who removes that access when the engagement ends.

Ask which entity employs the assistant, too, because that is the entity carrying the employer obligations under India's four central Labour Codes, as of August 2026.

Timelines are the other thing worth settling early. An agency can usually start within days, while employing your own assistant follows a recruitment cycle, and How Long Does It Take to Hire Employees in India sets out what each stage takes.

Contract terms, data handling and intellectual property all sit downstream of that choice, and they are worked through in Key Legal Considerations When Outsourcing to India.

How can Wisemonk help you hire a dedicated assistant in India?

We help global companies hire and manage dedicated assistants and other remote professionals in India, and we take on the employment side ourselves. You can hire in India without an entity while we run payroll, benefits, HR and compliance for the person doing your work.

This page ranks providers you can buy an assistant from. The separate question of what an administrative or executive assistant costs to employ yourself is covered on our administrative and executive assistant pages, and the salary bands are not restated here.

Businesses use us across administrative, operational and back-office roles, and we recruit for them as well as employ them. Where a traditional provider focuses on task-based assistance, we help companies build dedicated teams in India, so the person works as an extension of your existing team rather than as an outlet for individual tasks.

For an assistant-class hire that means a named person, recruited to your brief, on a compliant Indian employment contract, working your calendar and your inbox rather than a queue.

Across 300+ global clients we manage more than 2,000 employees in India and process $20M+ in annual payroll, and we hold a 4.8/5 rating on G2.

Here is how we help:

If what you want is task coverage across many small jobs rather than one named person, an agency retainer from the list above is the better fit. We would rather say that now than three months into a contract.

From our experience placing assistant-class hires in India, the ones that stick are the ones given a named function to own from week one rather than an inbox to watch.

Frequently asked questions

What are the top 5 virtual assistant companies in India?

The first five here are GetFriday, Brickwork India, VirtualEmployee, Acelerar Technologies and TaskVirtual. The order reflects how long each of these virtual assistant companies in India has operated and how much each documents on its own site, not a score.

Where can I find virtual assistants for hire in India?

Two routes. Buy a retainer from one of the virtual assistant companies in India on this list, or hire your own assistant in India as an employee through an employer of record on a compliant Indian contract, working only for you.

How much does an Indian virtual assistant cost?

There is no reliable market rate for agency hours: every band online traces to a vendor's marketing or an unattributed aggregator. Roughly a thousand reported virtual assistant salaries do put the three to six year band at $4,300 to $4,700 a year.

Do Indian virtual assistant companies employ their assistants or subcontract them?

It varies, and the answer changes what you can ask for. Where the provider employs the assistant, you can ask about supervision, cover and continuity. Where it runs a marketplace of contractors, substitution is the provider's call rather than yours.

What work should not go to a virtual assistant company in India?

Anything where you need to direct the person's hours, own their output as an employer would, or hold them to a fixed role. That is employment and belongs on an employment contract. Regulated work and payment data fit poorly too.

Does an agency retainer create any employment obligation in India?

Normally no. The agency is the employer, so Provident Fund, Employees' State Insurance, gratuity and the four Labour Codes, as of August 2026, are its obligations. Buyers with their own Indian establishment should note that contract labour rules can put liability back on the engaging company.

How is Wisemonk different from a virtual assistant company in India?

We do not sell assistant hours. We employ one named person in India on your behalf, on an Indian employment contract, working only for you, and we run payroll, HR and compliance. For scattered small tasks, a retainer fits better.
