(THIS SESSION IS MAINLY MEANT FOR CUSTOM MADE PRODUCTS. HOWEVER, SOME ARE APPLICABLE TO OTHER BUSINESS ACTIVITIES TOO)
QUS- 01> Why are you not supplying initial garment samples without approving the proposal in principle?
ANS> Sampling is very expensive and lots of new Clients are misusing this facility. We can submit samples once we could determine that a Client is serious and deserves it. From our past experiences, we have framed out a special sampling policy for this and found all serious and active Clients are approving same. All our regular and active Clients are happy with our sampling supports.
QUS- 02> Others are providing us with enough samples. Why not you?
ANS> Sorry, that we don't know. We value our money, time and efforts. Also we are ready to serve serious Clients in a better way.
QUS- 03> Are your prices high?
ANS> Our prices are not high. Please evaluate the quality with price offered. We can also supply in same price (even low) as you purchased, however quality will also be same of that.
QUS- 04> Why you are not allowing final inspection across our table in our Country?
ANS> There is nothing adverse in it. If some mistakes (major or minor) found in the final inspection at Client's place and they refuses the goods, simply we can't take return of the goods to India due to re-entry duty and freight. More over, majority of mistakes can be easily rectified in our factory with out much time and money involvement, if goods are final inspected in our works, prior to shipment. This is not at all possible if the goods inspected finally at the destination. Only this risk factor is the main problem for not allowing final inspection at destination. After all, products are man made and we should provide a margin for all kinds of un expected happenings.
QUS- 05> We want the products against DA or DP or 60 days L/c or Deferred Payment or LDP or TT against acceptance of goods etc. Could you offer?

QUS - 15> Why you are not conducting Overseas inspection at free of cost even placed through you?
ANS> It is very well known subject that sending our Inspection team to Overseas and conducting inspections there are very expensive, in case we are managing orders through other Country out side India.

Please understand our practical problems for not providing free inspection services, while an order is executing through our Overseas supplier (in case of our Sourcing & Buying function). However, such Overseas order organization would be conducted by us at free of cost (not Inspection).
