A B-1/B-2 visa would not allow you to work for the U.S. company while here or your Indian startup while here. It might seem like overkill but possibly get an O-1 through the U.S. company. There's no minimum amount of time that you must spend in the U.S.

How can US dictate an alien to not work for a foreign country while in US for visit?

Thank you, will try that option.
