Shavi Consulting helps startups and small businesses in India manage HR and compliance

HR & Compliance Services for Startups and SMEs

Startups and growing businesses don’t usually fail because of bad intent - they fail because HR, compliance, and people risks are ignored for too long.

Our services are designed for founders who want:

  • Clarity instead of confusion

  • Compliance without overengineering

  • Practical fixes, not theoretical advice

All services are clearly scoped, outcome-driven, and designed to reduce risk — fast.

HR Policy & Process Reset
