An Established SaaS Business, Scaling Without Lowering the Bar
Years of growth had made this product-software company a serious operation with standards to match, and it had no intention of relaxing them to expand into India. It needed a thirteen-person engineering and support team there, built deliberately over a couple of quarters, but a self-owned entity meant incorporation, registrations, and a permanent India compliance function it would have to staff forever.
The company wanted an India delivery team that behaved like part of the business from day one, correctly employed and properly supported, without leadership being pulled into running a foreign subsidiary.
The goal was a dependable delivery capability, built at roadmap speed and held to the same standard as everything else.
A Delivery Team, Ramped Deliberately and Compliantly
Wisemonk employed thirteen engineers and support staff as Employer of Record over seven months, scaling in waves rather than all at once so each hire was onboarded properly.
Every person came onto a compliant contract, with provident fund, professional tax, income-tax deductions, gratuity, and health benefits from the first cycle, and salaries benchmarked to a competitive market. Onboarding, equipment, payroll, compliance, and HR were consolidated under one accountable partner.
The company directed the work; Wisemonk carried the employment, the same way it does for 300+ global companies building teams in India.
A Real Delivery Centre, None of the Subsidiary Overhead
Seven months in, the company runs a compliant thirteen-person India delivery team as a true extension of the business, with no foreign entity to maintain.
The standards that got the company this far held throughout the build.
Further growth is now a matter of adding compliant hires through the same model, not starting another incorporation.
