What it costs

Typical pay rates in India.

$6–18 / hr
typical contractor rate

A wide range — high-volume back-office and support roles sit at the low end; specialized IT and software talent commands more.

That's the contractor's hourly rate. You pay it plus a flat 15% — no other fees. See the live split in the rate calculator →

Working with India talent

Time zones, culture, and how it works.

Time-zone fit

India is 9.5–12.5 hours ahead of the US — most teams run an evening or overnight shift for live US-daytime coverage, or work async with a few overlap hours for project work.

Work culture

A vast, English-speaking professional workforce with decades of experience serving US and UK clients — strong process discipline and a long track record in delivery-oriented work.
