Tradition unions support mlm in India

One of the biggest trade unions in India, INTUC, Indian National Trade Union Congress might lend its support to Network Marketing business. This comes as a surprise when another trade union AITUC marched against the foreign juice company, Monavie.

Now there are some facts to be analysed here,

a. INTUC has taken a stand against FDI initially, News came on Hindustan Times

Now coming to Network Marketing, it is doubtful that the INTUC leaders who might support MLM business But did they understood what is the core of mlm industry ?. Similar to FDI, now foreign companies seeing India as a big mass market is investing few crores to earn billions.

One of Pioneers for starting business in India is Amway. Amway has diversified from just a direct selling company to direct marketing company. Amway does not disclose their income statements from India. Why ?

Now another company which has started the operations in India with the story of a Health Juice is Monavie.

Current MLM scenario in India

a. An industry which is not regulated or controlled by any government body running from almost 20 years in India

b. Previously other companies like rmp, gold quest, Amway was also accused of paying bribes in to some of the political leaders

c. In MLM business people considers MLM leaders as company not the other way. So people like Mr. Shamsudeen, Abhilash Thomas who shifted from RMP Infotec to Monavie  and Mr.Sajeev Nair who shifted from Amway to Monavie might not be well accepted by anybody around India.

d. It is a well known fact for all that mlm companies during their initial debut pays or bribes mlm leaders of other companies to join and to make an initial push. This happens in most of the cases. Mr. Shamsudeen himself has admitted that Mr. Pravin J Chandan motivated and set some targets for his initial achievements in RMP
