How Employers Can Use Employer of Record India Services to Tackle Tariff and Regulatory Risks

May 1, 2025

In today’s global market, tariffs and changing regulations are constantly making the news. India’s no exception, and for businesses working locally or partnering with international companies, the ripple effects are real.

If you're hiring in India or growing your team here, it’s important to understand how these shifts can impact your operations, hiring plans, and overall costs. That’s where Employer of Record (EOR) services, like the ones Mometum91 offers, come into play.

So, What’s a Tariff and Why Does It Matter?

How Employers Can Use Employer of Record India Services to Tackle Tariff and Regulatory Risks

A tariff is basically a tax on imported goods or services. In India, tariffs are used to protect local industries and manage trade relationships. But they can also raise costs and make it harder to access certain suppliers.

Here’s how tariffs can hit businesses in India:

  • Higher costs: If you rely on imported materials or equipment, expect to pay more.
  • Supply chain headaches: Sudden rule changes can leave you scrambling for new vendors.
  • Hiring slowdowns: Rising costs might delay plans to grow your team.
