Independent contractors in mumbai

Andi (Querist) 26 November 2015 This query is : Resolved
Hello

My company currently has independent contractors working for us in Mumbai. We are an international company and don't have a legal entity in India.

Next year we plan to rent an office so the contractors no longer have to work from home. I would like advice as to any tax or legal risks associated with providing an office location for our contractors. Is this possible or would this mean they would be considered employees, not contractors under India law?

Thank you for your help.
