Company overview

Twenty years, one principle.

Peepal Consulting was founded in Bengaluru in 2005 with a conviction that recruitment done with rigour and trust could be a genuine business advantage. Over the next two decades it grew into a reputable, go-to partner for leading firms across the globe.

By 2012, our approach to execution and thought to the recruitment practice had built for us industry recognition, and an ever growing member and alumni community. The launch of TA Dialogues and the Peepal Foundation soon followed. In 2025 the firm marked twenty years in business, having rolled out more than 20,000 offers — still guided by the same idea it started with: recruitment, empowered by trust.

THE PEEPAL FOUNDATION

Impact lives — beyond hiring.

"Impact Lives" is one of Peepal's founding purposes, and the Peepal Foundation is how the firm lives it — with a focus on education. In 2017 the team adopted a government school in the Tajpur district, funding resources and facilities, and covering the school fees of children whose families can no longer afford them.

On Children's Day, volunteers distributed notebooks at the local Government Upper Primary School — a small start, and the first of many steps the Foundation hopes to take.

Our start to do something good for the larger society.
