Opaque Costs and Thin India Expertise, From a Global Provider

This medical-device and e-commerce company had been employing its India team through a broad global EOR, and two things wore it down. The billing was opaque, with marked-up fees and foreign-exchange costs it could never fully see, and the provider could not advise on India-specific benefits like gratuity and provident-fund structuring, so its India employees quietly felt they were getting a thinner deal than local peers.

For a company that cares about its people, that was not sustainable. It wanted its seven India employees on a transparent, India-native setup, with benefits that actually competed locally, and a partner who knew the market cold.

The decision was to move to a specialist and get it right.

The solution

Transparent Costs, Real India Benefits, One Specialist Partner

Wisemonk took over as Employer of Record with transparent, predictable pricing and no hidden markups, and rebuilt the team's benefits to compete properly in the Indian market.

All seven employees moved across without a gap, onto compliant contracts with provident fund, professional tax, income-tax deductions, gratuity, and strong health coverage, structured the way a specialist structures them. Payroll ran cleanly every cycle, part of the more than $20M in monthly payroll Wisemonk manages for global companies.

The company finally had clarity on what it paid and confidence in what its people received.

The results

People Looked After, Costs in Plain Sight

The company now employs its seven-person India team on a transparent setup, with 100% of statutory obligations handled and benefits that hold up against local employers.

The opaque fees and foreign-exchange surprises are gone, and its India employees get a deal they can be proud of.

It is a quieter version of a story Wisemonk sees often: a global platform gets a company into India, and a specialist is what makes staying there work.
