Outsourcing to India
Offshore software development in India for US companies
US startups, agencies and small businesses hire us when local developer rates do not fit the budget: a dedicated developer for less than a month of a US contractor's fees, morning calls on your time, and code in your GitHub from day one.
How much does it cost a US company to outsource software development to India?
With Infovion Technologies, a software company in Pune, India, US clients pay about $12 to $25 an hour for development, $900 to $1,800 a month for a dedicated full-time developer, and typically $3,000 to $15,000 for a web app or MVP at a fixed price; maintenance starts from about $150 a month. Invoices are in USD by international wire transfer, with no Indian tax added. The team works 9 am to 10 pm IST, which overlaps US East Coast mornings until about 11:30 am EST (12:30 pm EDT).

Working hours with the US
- Our team works 9 am to 10 pm India time (IST, UTC+5:30, no daylight saving), seven days a week.
- East Coast: we are 9½ hours ahead in summer (EDT) and 10½ in winter (EST); our day overlaps yours from 9 am to about 12:30 pm EDT / 11:30 am EST
- Central: overlap from 8 am to about 11:30 am CDT
- West Coast: 12½ to 13½ hours apart; work happens while you sleep, with a written update in your morning and calls around 8 am PT or in your evening
- A daily standup in your morning is the usual rhythm
Contracts, data and payment
- Mutual NDA before you share anything
- Your US-form agreement or ours; IP assigned to your company on payment
- Code in your GitHub or GitLab, hosting in your AWS, Vercel or other accounts
- Invoices in USD by international wire transfer; no Indian GST on exported services
- There is no single federal US privacy law: tell us which state laws (such as California's CCPA) or sector rules (such as HIPAA for health data) apply, and we work to your security requirements and sign the agreements your compliance team needs
Is a small Indian team right for you?
We are a small MSME team in Pune, not a 500-person outsourcing firm: you talk directly to the people writing your code, decisions are quick, and the budget suits startups and small and mid-size businesses. If you need dozens of developers at once, 24-hour staffing or certifications such as ISO 27001 or SOC 2, which we do not hold, a large IT services firm is the better choice.
How to start
- Send a short brief, or access to your existing code
- A video call at a time that suits your time zone
