Even as the bandh evoked a mixed response across India, the Cafemutual team found that many IFAs functioned normally.
Most IFAs ensured that their business functioned smoothly during the bandh.
“We
were not affected by the strike. Everything is running smoothly,” said Ramesh
Bhat of IFA Galaxy. Most part of Tamil
Nadu were not affected by the strike.
Even
in Kolkata, IFAs didn’t face any
problems. “We were able to work smoothly as there was no transportation problem
in Kolkata. I visited AMC houses and RTA and completed my work smoothly,” said
Sougata Mitra, a Kolkata based IFA.
Another
Kolkata based IFA even met his clients at their home.“I followed my regular
routine and visited my clients. Most of them were available at their place
today and therefore there was no affect on my business today,” said Suresh
Mohta, IFA from Kolkata.
While
the bandh affected normal life in Mumbai, some IFAs put up a brave face and
ensured that the bandh didn’t affect their routine. “It didn’t affect our work
so much. Some rowdies had entered our office but we managed to get them out. We
did some transactions also. Work functioned smoothly. We finished our work and
left early,” says Dinesh Khemlani of Comsol.
I
couldn’t contact any of my clients. Transportation was affected so many people
didn’t venture out,” says Neeraj Bahal of Fasttrack
Investments.
