CyberSpark legally employs software engineers and technical staff in India on behalf of UK companies — INR payroll, Provident Fund, ESI, Professional Tax, and compliant employment contracts. You direct the work. We carry the India employment compliance. No Indian entity required.
5–10 Days
Time to First Compliant Hire
£0 Setup Fee
Single Commercial Agreement
CyberSpark provides full-lifecycle employment and statutory governance in India under a single UK-law contract. You manage the engineering work; CyberSpark handles the legal employment infrastructure.
Compliant offer letter and appointment letter issued in Indian law. Role description, compensation structure, notice period, and IP assignment clause — all reviewed and issued by CyberSpark before the engineer's first day.
Gross salary disbursed to the employee's Indian bank account monthly on a reliable schedule. Digital payslips issued in compliant format. All statutory deductions accurately calculated and applied.
Candidate screening via SparkTalent in real Git repos with live automated QA. Multi-country leave tracking via WorkSpace keeping Indian statutory leave and UK sprint schedules synchronized.
One consolidated invoice in GBP covering gross salary, employer statutory contributions, and CyberSpark's management fee. Zero INR currency exposure, no Indian tax filings, and no statutory registrations on your side.
Every statutory requirement under Indian labour law is monitored and remitted directly by CyberSpark:
| Statutory requirement | Governing Authority / Act | Rate | Handled by CyberSpark |
|---|---|---|---|
| Provident Fund (PF) | Employees' Provident Funds Act, 1952 (EPFO) | 12% of basic salary | ✅ Managed in Full |
| Employee State Insurance (ESI) | ESIC Act, 1948 | 3.25% (where applicable) | ✅ Managed in Full |
| Professional Tax (PT) | State-specific enactments (e.g. Karnataka, Maharashtra) | ₹200–₹2,500/yr | ✅ Managed in Full |
| TDS on Salary | Section 192, Income Tax Act, 1961 | Per income tax slab | ✅ Managed in Full |

CyberSpark's EOR service is structured specifically for UK tech companies scaling their engineering velocity:
Making your first 1–5 India hires. EOR removes the 3–6 month wait for entity incorporation and gets compliant employment in place within days.
UK companies with an existing contractor, vendor team member, or referral who want to bring that person into formal employment with statutory coverage and clear IP ownership.
UK companies using CyberSpark for offshore development who want specific engineers employed directly under their corporate brand rather than as CyberSpark staff.
Companies evaluating India before committing to an entity — EOR is the lowest-risk way to test India as a hiring location with zero winding-up complexity.
Before committing to incorporation, UK companies should evaluate the setup timeline, cost, and ongoing regulatory overhead:
| Decision Factor | EOR via CyberSpark | Indian Private Limited (Pvt. Ltd.) |
|---|---|---|
| Time to First Hire | 5–10 working days | 3–6 months |
| Setup Cost | £0 (No setup fee) | £5,000–£15,000+ legal & incorporation fees |
| Ongoing Compliance | CyberSpark handles entirely | Your India team, Chartered Accountant & Company Secretary |
| Minimum Viable Team | 1 employee | 10+ employees to be cost-effective |
| Exit Process | Employment termination notice | Formal company winding-up (6–18 months) |
STRUCTURED DEPLOYMENT PIPELINE
From candidate selection to daily sprint delivery, CyberSpark follows a proven four-stage deployment pipeline:
Role & Terms Confirmation
You identify the person (optionally pre-screened with SparkTalent); CyberSpark confirms role, compensation, start date, and reporting structure. We review the role for statutory classification implications before proceeding.
Role specification & CTC breakdown
Statutory classification check
Those platforms are global EOR aggregators with software interfaces for payroll compliance across dozens of countries. CyberSpark is a UK software engineering company operating EOR as an extension of our existing India delivery infrastructure.
They understand what a senior React or Python engineer does, how system architecture works, and why your role specification matters. You speak with engineers, not HR generalists.
We build complex web platforms and employ the dedicated teams building them. No pure-play EOR platform can credibly offer both bespoke engineering and statutory employment.
UK law governs your agreement with CyberSpark. No three-party structure, no offshore intermediaries, and no subcontracted local payroll agents.
