International Holding Structure for Global Expansion
A SaaS startup serving international clients wanted to expand into North America and Europe. Overseas investors had expressed interest in the company, but the existing Indian corporate structure created challenges for foreign investment, intellectual property ownership, and international contracting. The founders needed a scalable structure without disrupting existing operations in India.
A clear-eyed look at where they stood.
A SaaS startup serving international clients wanted to expand into North America and Europe. Overseas investors had expressed interest in the company, but the existing Indian corporate structure created challenges for foreign investment, intellectual property ownership, and international contracting. The founders needed a scalable structure without disrupting existing operations in India.
Working alongside international legal and tax advisors, CapEasy designed a holding company structure that aligned with the founders' expansion plans. We advised on FEMA compliance, shareholding arrangements, intellectual property ownership, and inter-company agreements while ensuring regulatory compliance in India. The founders were also guided on future fundraising implications and operational governance.
The outcome
The company successfully established an international corporate structure that improved investor confidence, simplified overseas contracting, and positioned the business for global fundraising while maintaining compliant Indian operations.
