Three reasons HR teams collapse BGV into one call.

Background verification in India breaks across three axes — turnaround time, depth of signal (especially court records + EPFO), and DPDP-aligned audit. Deepvue's BGV chain is built around all three, configurable per role tier.

BGV report in days, not weeks 01 · Turnaround

Manual BGV — emailed forms, follow-ups, college calls — takes 2-4 weeks. Parallel API chains return verified results in days, with court records and education async-pulled.

Identity + EPFO + bank fire in parallel
Court records + education pulled async
Webhook updates as each signal lands
Catch fakes that pass the resume 02 · Depth of signal

Fake employment claims, fabricated tenures, fraudulent degrees, undisclosed criminal cases — each leaves a signature in a registry your BGV stack should be querying.

EPFO/UAN employment history (verified tenures)
Education record verification
Court records + FIR signal lookup
Per-candidate immutable trail 03 · DPDP audit

Candidates have privacy rights. When a candidate disputes a rejection or your DPO asks for the data-handling trail, you have a timestamped, exportable record per candidate.

Per-candidate consent + decision log
Source-of-data + check rationale captured
Data deletion / export on candidate request

Manual BGV with email-and-phone follow-ups takes 2-4 weeks per candidate and misses signals like undisclosed court cases. Deepvue's parallel chain returns verified results in days, with court records and education async-pulled.

Why manual BGV breaks down at scale.

If your funnel is leaking 25%+ between "Apply" and "Approved" — or your audit team is rebuilding decision history from logs — here's where the breakage usually starts.

Stitched-vendor onboarding
Sequential KYC → face → bank calls, latency stacks
PAN parsed as a string, not source-validated
No bank ownership check — mule accounts slip through
Audit trail across four systems, never reconstructable
Deepvue onboarding chain
Parallel KYC + face + bank + screening, single response
PAN, GST, CIN validated against source registries
Penny-drop bank ownership match before payout
DPDP + RBI-aligned audit trail, single API export
BGV reports stuck at 2-4 week turnarounds?
15-min walkthrough comparing your current BGV flow against a parallel decisioning chain. No commitment.

The BGV chain — six primitives, one call.

Every primitive a candidate-BGV chain needs, wired to call in parallel — configurable per role tier.

Identity verification
DigiLocker pull (Aadhaar + PAN), name-match, photo cross-reference. The starting primitive for any BGV report.
Explore
EPFO / UAN history
UAN-based employment history pull. Verified tenures, employer names, contribution months. Catches fabricated experience claims.
Explore
Court records + FIR
Structured court record search and FIR signal lookup on the candidate. Configurable per role-tier risk.
Explore
Education verification
Education record verification — degree, institution, year. Catches fraudulent academic claims.
Explore
Address verification
Field-officer-style address checks where applicable. Document-based or physical, depending on role tier.
Explore
Salary-account match
Penny-drop ownership match on the candidate's salary account before payroll wires. Stops payroll-fraud at day one.

How the BGV chain runs.

From a candidate consenting to BGV to a verified report ready for the offer letter.

01
Candidate consents
Your HR system sends the candidate a DPDP-aligned consent flow. PAN, Aadhaar, UAN, education, address inputs captured.
02
Identity + EPFO + bank fire
DigiLocker, EPFO/UAN employment history, salary-account ownership — all parallel, sub-30-second.
03
Court + education async
Court records + education verification pulled async (data sources are slower). Webhook updates as each lands.
04
Report compiled, audit logged
CLEAR / DISCREPANCY / FAIL with full check history. DPDP-aligned audit trail. HR makes the offer or escalates.

End-to-end median: days, not weeks. Compare against your current BGV flow side-by-side in a 15-min walkthrough.

Compliance map for hiring + BGV.

The frameworks BGV chains get challenged on — DPDP, candidate consent, IT Act, sectoral hiring rules — and which Deepvue capabilities map to each.

DPDP
DPDP Act, 2023
Digital Personal Data Protection. Consent, purpose limitation, data-fiduciary duties for all onboarded customers.
RBI
RBI Master Direction on KYC
Defines acceptable KYC flows for Indian users. Aadhaar e-KYC, OVDs, video-KYC, periodic refresh.
AML
PMLA, 2002
Prevention of Money Laundering Act. Mandates customer due diligence, record-keeping, suspicious-transaction reporting for regulated entities.
FATF
FATF Recommendations
R10 (CDD), R12 (PEPs), R16 (Travel Rule). Applies to financial institutions via home regulator.
CONSUMER
Consumer Protection Rules
Marketplace + e-commerce: seller-due-diligence + grievance officer + return/refund disclosure obligations.
IT ACT
IT Act, 2000 (Sec 43A + 79)
Reasonable security practices + intermediary safe harbour. Documented onboarding strengthens both.
SCREENING
UN, OFAC, EU sanctions
Sanctions list screening at onboarding and monitored throughout the customer lifecycle.
SCREENING
PEP & Adverse Media
Politically Exposed Persons screening per FATF R12. Adverse media flags reputational risk.
This map is informational, not legal advice. Your specific licensing posture (NBFC, Bank, marketplace, gig aggregator) layers on top — Deepvue's audit trail is built to support all of them.

Where BGV funnels break down — and where Deepvue plugs the holes.

From candidate consent to clean BGV report — funnels usually break in one of these five places.

One workflow, configured per role tier.

Five role configurations — same chain, different primitive depth per tier.

Full-time hire
ID + EPFO + court + education
Standard chain: identity, EPFO history, court records, education, address, salary-account match. Default DPDP audit.
Contract hire
Lighter, faster chain
Identity + court records + bank, education optional. Tuned for short-tenure or specialist contractors.
Sensitive role
+ Director-style depth
Standard chain plus sanctions screening, deeper court history, address physical-verify. For finance, compliance, child-safety roles.
Gig worker
High-volume + safety
Identity, face liveness, bank ownership, court records — high-volume wholesale pricing. For driver, delivery, services platforms.
Executive
Full + reputation + media
Full BGV plus adverse-media + PEP + sanctions + LinkedIn / professional-history sanity. Reviewed report, not auto-decide.

Built for DPDP-aligned BGV.

DPDP candidate consent, IT Act sensitive-data rules, sectoral hiring obligations — overlapping requirements per role. Deepvue's audit trail satisfies all of them out of the box.

BGV commitments
DPDP-aligned consent capture per candidate
Per-candidate audit trail with deletion-on-request
Source data via authorized partner integrations
Paperwork & controls
SOC 2 Type II controls (in audit)
ISO 27001 aligned
GDPR-compatible DPA available
Sub-processor list under MSA

Deepvue is not a regulator and does not represent itself as RBI, SEBI, UIDAI, or any government authority. HR and BGV teams retain full responsibility for hiring decisions and adverse-action communication to candidates. Deepvue provides the verification infrastructure and structured audit trail; the hiring decision is yours.

Applicable regulations

All API interactions are protected using encryption, role-based access controls, and audit logging.

Volume pricing per BGV report.

BGV bundles tier with monthly hire volume. Pay per chained report, not per individual check. INR-first invoicing.

Pricing scales with
monthly hires verifiedprimitives per decision (3, 5, 7+)checks per BGV (3, 5, 7+)dedicated SLA & support tierINR-first, USD on request

Most HR teams running 500-50k BGV reports per month land in a per-report range materially under stitching individual verification vendors. No per-source surcharges.

Common questions from compliance and product leads.

Real questions, asked in evaluation calls. If yours isn't here, book a 15-min walkthrough — we'll answer it live.

We already use a BGV agency. Why switch to an API chain?
Three reasons compound: turnaround (days vs. weeks), cost (one API vs. agency markup), and audit (immutable per-candidate trail vs. emailed PDF). Most teams pilot Deepvue on a hire cohort for 4-6 weeks side-by-side with their agency before consolidating.
Can we tier the chain by role?
Yes. Run a thin chain for contract / gig roles (identity + court + bank) and a deeper chain for sensitive / executive roles (+ adverse media, sanctions, physical address). Thresholds per role tier are configurable.
How is candidate consent captured?
DPDP-aligned consent flow embedded in your ATS / HRIS. Candidate sees what data will be checked, by whom, for what purpose, with retention period. Withdrawal supported per DPDP rules.
Where is candidate data stored?
Indian servers by default. Storage arrangements are negotiated per MSA, with defaults aligned to DPDP and applicable sector regulations.
What about candidate disputes on a verification finding?
Per-check trail with source data, timestamp, and rationale lets you defend any finding to the candidate. Adverse-action communication is your responsibility; Deepvue provides the audit substrate.
How long does integration take?
Sandbox in a day. Production / ATS-wired inside 1-2 weeks for most HR teams. The longest part is usually your ATS integration, not our API.

How does Deepvue's "Hire an employee" workflow compare to a manual BGV agency?

Deepvue's BGV chain runs identity (DigiLocker), EPFO/UAN employment history, court records + FIR signal lookup, education record verification, address verification, and salary-account ownership match in one API call — parallel where possible, async-webhook for slow sources. Manual BGV agencies take 2-4 weeks per candidate; the API chain returns verified results in days. Tiered per role (full-time, contract, sensitive, gig, executive). DPDP-aligned per-candidate audit trail with deletion-on-request.

Run a clean BGV report in
days, not weeks.

India-Stack-native. DPDP-aligned. One workflow, every role tier.
