non compete in India

20 years ago

I am contemplating joining an Indian based company, and they are asking that I sign a 2 year non compete, that would restrict me for recruting other employees or clients. Has any expat out there have an experience with non compete in India? In the US, the law requires it to be limited in time and in geography, and in most companies, It is only for one year, and the non compete becomes obsolete when one is terminated. What is typical practice in India? This particular company has businesses all over Asia and the Middle East, and would not to "be prevented to make a living" (verbage from the US law) after them.
