Ask YC: Starting a web startup in India?
2 comments
you had to move to make a cost comparison?
We did not "move", we just came here to see what Silicon Valley was all about and if maybe we could make it work down here... it was more like a field trip; besides, no matter how much you read about a place nothing compares to actually being there.
the cost is less but are you from India?, if not then you may have tough time to get things done quickly - its better to know someone down there (a co-founder may be) - also the culture and social structure is way different than SV - so you may take time to get used to it ... may be i can help you more if you can post your email address ...GOOD LUCK
No, I am not Indian - Im Mexican, but I lived and work in Hyderabad for two years and have some contacts over there.

Do you think is a good idea to start a startup in India?
I came to SV hoping to start development of my application but the costs are just too high... so now I am considering to do it in India... I have worked in India before and there is just no comparison with the costs and I know there are plenty of qualified people over there...
What do you think? Any advice?
