If you are a US-based entrepreneur planning to start a business in India, the process is straightforward but requires a few legal steps. First, you need to decide on the business structure, such as a Private Limited Company or a Wholly Owned Subsidiary. Next, the directors must obtain a Digital Signature Certificate (DSC) and Director Identification Number (DIN). After this, you can apply to reserve a unique company name with the Ministry of Corporate Affairs (MCA). Once the name is approved, the incorporation documents are filed online, and upon verification, the MCA issues a Certificate of Incorporation. This certificate allows your company to officially operate in India while complying with FEMA and RBI rules for foreign investment.
