The ban had been called by the organization in protest of the decision of the IT companies not to involve the IT channel community in the ambitious Flood IT Project. Flood IT is a project launched by Gujarat Urban Co-operative Banks Federation’s to finance a desktop to students studying from Kindergarten to post graduate level on zero percent interest rate. The move was targeted to increase the penetration of PCs across Gujarat, especially in rural Gujarat.
“We lifted the ban after the vendors agreed to our terms and conditions. Now the channels will be involved in the entire exercise. Besides, they are also ready to give over rating commission (ORC) to the channels, in case they get the order,” said Kaushik Pandya, President FITAG while speaking to The DQ Week.
Earlier, all the members of the Federation, around 2,500 in the entire state, had been directed to stop the sales and purchase of three brands—HP, Acer and HCL. The organization requested all the distributors, including regional and sub-distributors to not indulge any billing to the partners for above brands till further orders.
