Finally a question about my area of expertise!!

I’m the CTO of commenda.io. We help Indian startups get set up with RBI-compliant, venture-ready Delaware c-corps.

There are 2 reasons why Indian corporations like to incorporate in the US:

1: VC. American VCs love investing in Indian startups, but they hate investing in Indian corporations. YC invests only in corporations set up in the US, Canada, Singapore, or Cayman Islands. Other VCs have different requirements, but they all accept US.

2: Sales. If you’re selling to US customers (which most Indian SAAS startups want to do), a US entity will help you build trust and a US bank account will make it easier for your customers to pay you.
