Our Expertise
India has historically been renowned for its highly qualitative pool of technology talent, and consequently, numerous global technology leaders have set up their development centres in India. Over the past decade, on account of the sustained push by the Indian government to promote India as a manufacturing hub, several leading global manufacturers have increasingly set up manufacturing facilities in India.
However, it is important to note that India has strict labour laws aimed at the protection of the labour force. Indian labour laws are a complex web of central legislations as well as numerous state and local legislations, several of which could be applicable to an employer.
