Your Complete Remote Development Team, Built in India
A full-time, Agile team that works exclusively on your product — developers, QA, and a project manager — all for the cost of 1–2 local hires.
Build My TeamA dedicated development team from India is a full-time, managed squad — developers, QA and a project manager — that works only on your product. Unlike hiring freelancers one at a time, you get a single delivery unit that runs your backlog in Agile sprints, joins your standups, and compounds knowledge of your codebase month after month. You interview and approve every engineer; we handle recruitment, payroll, HR and retention underneath.
It is the right model once one or two extra developers are not enough and you want a team that owns a product line end to end — typically 3 to 15 people. Want the numbers first? Run your headcount through the remote developer cost calculator, check per-role pricing on the developer rate card, or see why teams choose India's engineering talent. Past 10 engineers, an offshore development center is often the better fit.

How much does a dedicated development team from India cost?
A dedicated development team from India starts at about $5,500/mo for a 3-developer starter squad and around $11,000/mo for a managed team of five with a dedicated project manager. That is a single blended monthly cost — salaries, benefits, payroll, infrastructure and management are all inside it. The same five-person team hired locally in the US, UK or Australia costs $45,000+/mo once you load salaries with benefits, recruiter fees and office overhead, so the dedicated team cost lands roughly 75% lower for the same engineering output.
There is no per-hire recruitment commission and no percentage margin stacked on every headcount. You pay a transparent monthly rate per engineer, and it stays flat as the team grows from 3 to 30+ developers. Every engagement opens with a 7-day risk-free trial, so you confirm the team delivers before committing to the month.
The number that actually moves is seniority mix, not headcount — a team weighted toward tech leads costs more than one weighted toward mid-level engineers. Model your exact mix in the cost calculator, or see per-role monthly pricing on the rate card.
Dedicated team vs staff augmentation vs an ODC
These three models solve different problems. Staff augmentation plugs individual developers into your existing team, billed per person — best when you need two React engineers for six months and already have a lead to manage them. A dedicated development team gives you a managed squad with its own project manager, QA and Agile process, working your backlog end to end — best from roughly 3 to 15 people building a defined product.
An offshore development center is the next step up: a long-term branded unit of your own company in India, usually from 10 engineers, with its own culture and career ladders. The practical test is time horizon — if you need delivery on a product now and want one accountable team owning it, a dedicated development team is the fit; if you are building a permanent 20-plus-engineer org in India, an ODC is.
With a dedicated team you keep full control of what gets built and who builds it, while we absorb the hiring, payroll and retention risk. That is why founders and CTOs use it to ship faster without taking on the overhead of running an engineering office abroad — and why India's talent pool makes the economics work.
Dedicated development team FAQs
How much does a dedicated development team from India cost? +
A dedicated development team from India starts at about $5,500/mo for a 3-developer squad and around $11,000/mo for a managed team of five with a dedicated project manager. The same five-person team hired locally in the US or UK costs $45,000+/mo once you load salaries, benefits and recruiter fees — so a dedicated development team lands roughly 75% lower for the same output, with no per-hire recruitment commission.
What is the difference between a dedicated team and staff augmentation? +
Staff augmentation adds individual developers to your existing team, billed per person, and is best for short gaps. A dedicated development team is a managed squad — developers, QA and a project manager — that works only on your product, runs your backlog in Agile sprints, and reports to you daily. You get a whole delivery unit, not just extra hands.
How quickly can I get a dedicated development team up and running? +
Because the engineers are already vetted and on our bench, a dedicated development team is typically matched within 48 hours and fully onboarded onto your tools and codebase within one to two weeks. Every engagement starts with a 7-day risk-free trial, so you confirm the fit before you commit.
Do I control who is on my dedicated team? +
Yes. You interview and approve every developer before they join your dedicated development team, and they work exclusively on your product — no shared or rotating resources. If someone is not the right fit, we replace them at no cost and cover the ramp-up of the new engineer.
Can I scale my dedicated development team up or down? +
Yes. A dedicated development team scales from 3 to 30+ engineers as your roadmap changes. You can add developers, QA or DevOps in the same managed model without renegotiating rates, and the per-developer cost stays flat as the team grows. There is no long lock-in — you adjust headcount with a month's notice.
