    Employment Contract Drafting.

    Under the Labour Codes every employee must receive an appointment letter, and the rules prescribe what it must contain. We draft offer letters, appointment letters and fixed-term contracts that meet these requirements and set out pay, duties, probation, notice, confidentiality and exit terms clearly enough to rely on later.

    Typical timeline

    Typically 1–2 weeks for a template set, depending on the number of role types and review rounds.

    1. 1

      Requirements gathering

      We understand your roles, pay structure, probation, notice and policies, and the states you hire in.

    2. 2

      Template drafting

      We draft offer and appointment letter templates with the particulars the rules require and your commercial terms.

    3. 3

      Protective clauses

      We draft confidentiality, IP assignment and non-solicitation clauses, keeping post-employment restraints within what Indian courts enforce.

    4. 4

      Review and revision

      We walk you through each clause and revise the drafts after your feedback.

    5. 5

      Rollout and training

      We give HR a short guide on completing and issuing the documents, including letters for existing employees who do not have one.

    Before we start

    What we need from you.

    Don't have everything yet? We send a short checklist after the first call and work with what you have.

    • Current offer and appointment letter templates
    • Salary structure and CTC format
    • HR policies referred to in the letters
    • Roles, grades and locations to be covered
    • Details of any fixed-term, consultant or intern arrangements
    How fees work

    The fee depends on your situation. After a short call, the partner who will do the work tells you what's involved and gives you a fixed fee in writing — before any work begins.

    • Government fees and statutory charges are billed at actuals.
    • When you pay — upfront, in stages or on completion — is agreed in writing with the fee.
