For a single phase motor, this can be done by connecting a capacitor in series with the starting windings. For three phase motors, this can be done by connecting starting resistors in the stator windings at starting. This reduces the stator current and hence it's flux density. Thus the rotor will have less opposition starting to rotate. Hence, the torque has increased.
