What does a hire in India actually cost?
Start with salary and a few basic hiring details. Ivvora converts USD to INR, applies local payroll rules, and converts the result back to USD.

Ivvora separates calculated costs from items that still need more information.
At a glance
Key characteristics derived from the structured country dataset.
Statutory employer contributions
Cannot be represented honestly as one universal percentage
Employee deductions
Statutory deductions and withholding rules that may reduce gross pay.
Mandatory compensation
Separate statutory compensation obligations are modeled individually rather than as a single employer-tax percentage.
Statutory bonus
8.33–20
Gratuity
15/26 × last-drawn statutory wages × qualifying completed years; final partial year >6 months counts.
Annual leave
India cannot be represented honestly with one universal private-sector PTO number.
Hours & overtime
National baselines are combined with state and establishment-specific rules.
Contracts, notice & termination
Employment outcomes depend on worker status, contract terms, state law and establishment characteristics.
No single universal national maximum
Contract, state, worker classification and termination reason can change notice.
Separate deadlines may apply to gratuity and other final-pay components.
Severance & retrenchment rules

Data coverage
Important limitation
India has substantial state, establishment and employee-classification variation. Values that cannot safely be represented as a country-wide constant remain conditional instead of being estimated.
