Legal Question in Employment Law in India
I am working as a senior executive HR in a software company. Our company is intending to hire a senior developer in the organisation. The proposed candidate will be working from home in flexible hours. In this situation , I would like to know which option would be better � a regular employment or a Consultancy based asssignment? If the consultant raises invoice monthly, will there be any service tax that the company has to pay towards the consultation?
1 Answer from Attorneys
whether to employ full time or as a consultant to operate from home shall depend on the nature of work . However, in an IT industry noramlly the work taken up on project basis , therefore if you are highring some one for project or specific purpose then it is advisable that you take him as consultant. Service tax is applicable to consultants.
