Is usa marriage certificate / license valid in india?

Hi,

I'm a NRI of Indian nationality in USA with a H1B Visa and I'm planning on getting married to a girl of Indian Nationality with a F1 Visa in USA.

If I get the Marriage License / Certificate in USA, Will it still be valid for applying a H4 Visa in India for my wife?

Please let me know if the marriage certificate provided by a Court in USA if it will still be valid in India or will I need to get the marriage registered and obtain a certificate again in India to avoid any complications in future like Visa application, Passport, Green Card, bank account opening , Life Insurance, Beneficiary both in USA and India.

Thanks.
