About Startups (under 50 staff) in India
A startup with fewer than 50 people rarely needs a full HR function, but it does need the basics to be right from the first hire: compliant offer letters, PF registration once headcount touches 20, ESIC in most states at 10, a POSH committee at 10, and a payroll process that survives the first funding round’s due diligence. Providers who serve this segment well offer fractional HR, bundled payroll and compliance at a small-team minimum, and recruiting with founder-friendly terms such as capped fees for early hires. Be wary of enterprise-grade retainers; a monthly spend of ₹10,000 to ₹40,000 covers payroll, compliance and on-call HR advice at this size.
Providers on this page have declared that startups are a core client group and their minimum engagement values are visible so you can screen out those built for larger accounts. Reviews are moderated before publication and come from founders, and the rate band shows what a comparable company paid. The location filter is useful for firms that also visit in person.
Frequently asked questions
When does a startup need to register for PF and ESIC?
PF registration is mandatory when the establishment reaches 20 employees, counting contract staff. ESIC applies at 10 employees in most states for staff earning up to ₹21,000 a month. Many startups register voluntarily earlier because investors and larger clients expect it.
What HR documents should a startup have from day one?
Appointment letters with confidentiality and IP assignment clauses, a basic leave and conduct policy, a POSH policy once there are 10 employees, employee personal files with KYC, and a payroll register. ESOP schemes need board and shareholder approval plus a separate plan document.
How much should a seed-stage startup budget for HR services?
For a team of 10 to 40, outsourced payroll and compliance costs ₹5,000 to ₹15,000 per month, a fractional HR consultant ₹20,000 to ₹50,000 monthly for a few days, and recruiting 8.33% of CTC per hire. Total spend rarely exceeds 2% of payroll.
