What affects a translator's price in Mumbai
- Parts and material. Labour rates assume you supply the material. If the translator brings it, ask for the brand and a bill; the estimator shows that as a separate range.
- Shift and duration. Daily and monthly rates are per worker for an 8-hour day; 12-hour shifts, nights and short notice cost more, and monthly rates assume 26 working days.
- Quantity. Quantities over four are stepped down, and a longer engagement gets a better daily rate.
