FAQ
- What is agentic payroll at Varimo?
- Agentic payroll means Varimo’s application acts inside the workflow: it flags loss-of-pay arrears, attendance gaps, and statutory deadlines before payrun approval - not after month close. Attendance, leave, payrun, and EPF/ESIC/PT/TDS remittances run in one pipeline.
- What visibility do clients get on India payroll?
- Clients on Varimo payroll get visibility into payrun status, the India statutory calendar, and an audit trail from attendance lock through salary and filings. Finance and HR leads see deadlines and progress without reconciling scattered exports.
- What is an Employer of Record (EOR) in India?
- An Employer of Record is the legal employer for your team member in India. You direct day-to-day work; Varimo handles employment contracts, payroll, and statutory remittances including EPF, ESIC, professional tax, and TDS.
- What services does Varimo offer?
- Varimo offers Employer of Record (EOR), payroll and workforce operations, executive leadership hiring, leadership hiring, and board hiring, for companies worldwide that employ people in India.
- When should a company use Varimo EOR vs incorporating in India?
- EOR suits companies that need employed India talent quickly without waiting for entity incorporation, bank setup, and payroll infrastructure. Incorporation may be better for long-term permanent establishment with full local P&L ownership.
- Does Varimo handle EPF, ESIC, and professional tax compliance?
- Yes. Varimo runs payroll with India statutory compliance, EPF, ESIC, professional tax by work location, and TDS, aligned to typical deadlines including salary (7th), PF/ESI (15th), and state PT challans.
- Can Varimo also arrange background verification, workspace, or devices?
- Yes, on request and through partners. Beside core Employer of Record, Varimo can arrange background verification, office or workspace (coworking or a managed desk), and mobile device management (MDM) plus laptops. These are optional partner-delivered add-ons. They are not required for EOR.
