A team which got acquired generally goes through the following process:

Note: The entire process is from the perspective of the startup environment in India. This might differ from elsewhere.

1. 
   Probation Period: The entire team would be under probation period. This would be generally for 3-4 months.


2. 
   Introduction and role assignment: The team would be introduced to the parent company and then the roles (if new) would be assigned along with the teams and the managers.

The acquiring company doesnt hve offices in india at all. So folks
says that its very goos thing.

If the folks at your company think that all of you would be transferred to the US offices, then tell them that there is bad news. Acquisition doesn't work like that in most cases. You would be having a new office space in India (cause that is much cheaper than migrating you all to the US). Maybe the senior members (like the CEO/CTO/VP) would be transferred to the US, but definitely not all of you

how will it affect me?

A tip: Work very hard during your probation period

Layoffs tend to happen after acquisition, so you might want to prove value to your parent company and the new team of yours.

  Many assumptions made in this comments thread. That depends on many many factors... The business sector, the activity of the company, their financial health, their global strategy... Maybe you can have a look a the acquiring company's global strategy and that might already hint you in the right direction for the future of your indian branch. As for your own situation, it seems very premature to give any answer...
