The market, and what an Indian offer letter actually pays you
FreeThis guide is written for two readers at once: an Indian professional who wants their own market described accurately, and someone coming into India to work, whether that is a foreign national on a work visa or a returning NRI or OCI cardholder. Where the two need different answers, the guide says which answer belongs to whom.
India is unusual among the countries covered on this site in that most of the people reading about it already live in it. So this page does not open with visas. It opens with the market, the labour law that changed underneath it in November 2025, and the arithmetic of an Indian offer letter, because those are the things that both readers get wrong in the same way. The inbound material, visas, registration, OCI, PAN and Aadhaar, sits in section 02.
