The Torch Bearers of Karma
Kishor Vaidya, Chairman of Karma started off his professional career in 1979 after working in PF office for over a decade. It was his dream and vision to go on unchartered areas of payroll compliance consulting and thus, he left his government job and started a company on his own. He also started K S services in 1999 with 300 employees as staffing business. His aim was to be a pioneer in payroll compliance consulting services in Mumbai and he was one of the most sought after professional in 90s and 2000s.
Pratik Vaidya, Managing Director of Karma commenced his academic career at Mithibhai College, where he graduated, and acquired a law degree and developed scholastic intellectualism, consultation and counseling skills. Pratik became pre-eminent in the global world of consulting and management services and deservedly in 2007 became the Managing Director of the family owned Karma Group of Companies which originally engaged in personnel law consultation and services with the guidance of the patriarch Kishor Vaidya.
Pratik has served on the Karma board since 2002 and has played the role of a visionary leader in the field. He has been a pioneer and the first of its kind in setting up an online compliance portal and ERP for audit of Indian labour laws where currently 2500 locations / sites are being managed by his team of dedicated specialists. He has not only grown this profession, but has also ensured that corporate clients from a wide mix of industry, including telecommunications, hospitality, FMCG and financial services and exports are compliant with the Indian laws.
Together the duo has undertaken a plethora of initiatives that has further transformed Karma into a front runner that now offers services including personnel law consultancy, personnel outsourcing, payroll management, placements, staffing and liaison work to its clientele of over 350.

At Karma they believe “The ability to provide superlative service and quality comes from two primary sources – our human capital and technology.” The passion, diligence, timeliness and dedication that each member of Karma displays is their greatest pride.
