Hiring a maid in Hyderabad
In Telugu-speaking homes the word you will hear is panimanishi. Whatever you call the role, the hard part is the same: you are letting a stranger into your home every day, usually on nothing more than a phone number passed along by a neighbour. Sevetu changes the order of that — you see an ID-verified profile, you chat before you commit, and you write the terms down.
Hyderabad's west — Gachibowli, Madhapur, Kondapur — is full of families who moved for work and have no local network to ask for a recommendation. That is exactly the gap a verified profile fills: you get to see who someone is before you let them into your home. On Sevetu you post what you need, maids in your part of Hyderabad apply, and you choose. Set the tasks, the days and the timings; agree the salary directly. Sevetu never takes a commission, so the wage you agree is the wage she keeps.
What kind of maid can you hire?
How to hire, in four honest steps

Review verified applicants
Compare experience, skills and ID verification at a glance — you always know who you are talking to.

Sign a digital agreement
What you both agreed is recorded in a simple digital work agreement — clear for both sides.
What should you pay maids in Hyderabad?
What actually sets the rate
Hours, how many people live in the house, exactly which tasks are included, whether the role is live-in, and how far the maid has to travel to reach you. Two households on the same street can pay very differently and both be fair.
Ask your own street first
An ILO and IIHS study of domestic work in Indian cities found households calibrate to the running rate in their own neighbourhood, and are reluctant to break it — which is why pay clusters tightly inside one society in Hyderabad and jumps between them. Your building is a better guide than any city-wide average.
Then put it in writing
Salary, hours, weekly off, paid leave, notice period and festival bonus. Agreeing all six at the start is the single best thing you can do to make the arrangement last.
We do not publish a salary table for Hyderabad, and that is deliberate. No independent source measures home-help pay reliably at city level, and a number we invented would only anchor you to a figure with nothing behind it. Work it out from the job in front of you, and agree it directly — Sevetu takes no commission either way.
How to get a police verification in Hyderabad
Sevetu runs an identity (KYC) check — Aadhaar or government ID. That confirms a person is who they say they are. It is not a police or criminal-background check, and we will never describe it as one. What we do and do not check →
If you want a police check as well — and for live-in roles, childcare and drivers it is worth it — you arrange it yourself, and in Hyderabad there is an official route. Telangana Police handles it through the i-Verify police verification service. Telangana Police runs an online police verification and clearance service for citizens and employers, and Hyderabad City Police separately captures domestic-help details through its Hawk Eye app. Telangana Police — official portal →
Government processes change. Check the official Telangana Police site for the current form, fee and documents before you apply. Sevetu is not affiliated with any police department.
Maids across Hyderabad
Sevetu is rolling out across Hyderabad, neighbourhood by neighbourhood.

Posting your exact area rather than just "Hyderabad" gets you fewer applicants but far more who can realistically make the commute every day.

Frequently asked questions
Post your job with your actual locality — Gachibowli, Madhapur, HITEC City or wherever you are — rather than just "Hyderabad". You will get fewer applicants and far more who can realistically reach you every day, which is what decides whether a hire lasts.
We deliberately do not publish a salary table. Pay for house help is set street by street, not city-wide, and any number we printed would anchor you to something we invented. Work it out from the hours, the number of people in the house, the tasks, and what is normal in your own building — then agree it directly with her.
Profiles can carry a Verified badge from an identity (KYC) check against Aadhaar or a government ID, and you can see experience and profile completeness before you chat. It is an identity check, not a police or criminal background check, so please use your own judgement as well.
Yes, and you do it yourself — Telangana Police runs the i-Verify police verification service. Sevetu verifies identity; it does not and cannot run police checks. See the section above for how the Hyderabad process works.
Yes. You set the timings when you post — a couple of hours a day, full-time, or live-in — and only maids who can work those hours apply.
There is no fee to compare. A placement agency typically charges one month's salary as a placement fee, and a local broker often takes a cut every month. Sevetu charges neither the household nor the worker anything — you pay only the agreed salary, directly. What you give up is the agency doing the shortlisting for you.
Most speak some combination of Telugu, Hindi, Urdu and English. Applicants list their languages on their profile, so you can filter for someone you can actually give instructions to.
Salary, working hours, days off, which tasks are included, leave, notice period and any festival bonus. Sevetu records it in a digital work agreement both sides accept — which is mostly there to prevent the arguments that start in month three.
