Employment Agreement in Ranchi
Hire with confidence. We draft clear appointment letters and employment agreements covering pay, role, probation, notice, confidentiality and exit.
Clear terms from the first day
An employment agreement or appointment letter records the terms on which someone works for you: role, salary and benefits, working hours, probation, leave, notice period, confidentiality, intellectual property and how the relationship can end. It prevents misunderstandings and supports your position in any dispute.

Common questions
Appointment letter or employment agreement?
An appointment letter states the terms offered. An agreement is signed by both sides and can carry more detailed clauses. For key roles, an agreement is advisable.
Can I stop an employee joining a competitor after they leave?
Post-employment non-compete clauses are generally not enforceable in India. Confidentiality, IP ownership and reasonable non-solicit terms are more effective.
Do the new labour codes change employment contracts?
They change rules on wages, social security, fixed-term employment and industrial relations. We draft with the current position in mind and confirm state rules.
What is a fixed-term employment agreement?
A contract for a set period. The labour codes recognise fixed-term employment with certain benefits. We draft it for your needs.
Do I need stamp paper?
Usually not for appointment letters, but this depends on the document and state. We confirm.
This page is general information, not legal advice. Around Tax is not a law firm. Laws on stamp duty, registration and taxes vary by state and change over time, so we confirm the current position for your document before we begin. For disputes, litigation or complex cross-border matters, we recommend you also consult an advocate.
