Contract staffing in Gandhinagar

The staffing firm’s service charge is usually 6–12% of the worker’s gross salary, on top of actual salary, employer PF at 12% and ESIC at 3.25% where applicable, and gratuity provisioning. GST at 18% applies to the entire invoice value.

Recruitment of banking, capital markets, fund administration and compliance professionals, often with international experience; executive search for unit heads; payroll and benefits for staff sometimes on foreign-currency salaries; and HR policies aligned with IFSCA regulatory expectations on conduct and fit-and-proper standards.

Yes. GIFT City is a special economic zone and international financial services centre, but central and Gujarat labour laws, including PF, ESIC, gratuity, POSH and the Shops and Establishments Act, apply to employees working there. SEZ authorities administer some approvals and registrations.
