SaaS Customer Contract Checklist for Indian Founders: MSA, Payment Terms, Renewal and Termination

From Bhavya Sharma and Associates by Bhavya Sharma and Associates 15 min read

• Split the deal into an MSA (legal terms) plus an order form (plan, price, term, billing, renewal) so your commercials, including any uplift, live where you can defend them
• Nail GST treatment (inclusive vs exclusive) and TDS upfront, and never accept net-90 or buyer-side approval language without checking it against your runway
• Do not sign the enterprise's own MSA fast just because the logo matters: renewal, price-increase, and termination wording are where founders quietly give away protection
