The biggest startup event in India is Proto: http://www.proto.in
Btw, a TED conference is scheduled this year in India as well: http://conferences.ted.com/TEDIndia

I'm working on a startup in Chennai, and I can't really say I've met many people who want to go the startup route, not even from IIT-M. Most seem to be content with working for others either as engineers or as MBAs. As such I'd say the startup scene is barely existent in India.
startup event conferences in india are a joke man! turn into networking and schmoozing sessions eventually.very difficult to meet people working on good product ideas and technologies. we're based out of mumbai and built a group around the IIT campus area. you might wanna try barcamp some rare gud showcases and people.

True!, i've seen the same things regurgitated each time and imagine a "startup" with more than a dozen products at a time. That's what i saw at some of the conferences, for example the recent SiliconIndia #startupcity.

I've been to a couple of startup conferences hoping to come across people with a similar itch to build and play around with technologies, but they were infested with marketing people and sales pitches.
PS: I'm based in New Delhi.
