Definitions
Group Miles: Group Miles are the Miles accumulated to you based on first time products purchase by
your team IBA. 100% of the Group Miles (upto first 100 miles)will be accumulated to you for your Group
Sales Incentive.
Group MyMlles: Group My Miles are the Miles accumulated to you based on repeated purchase(after first
100 miles) of products by your team IBA. 100% of the Group MyMiles will be accumulated to you for your
Group Sales Incentive as Group MyMiles.
Personal MyMlles: Personal MyMiles are the Miles accumulated to you based on repeated purchase of
products personally by yo u. 100% of Personal MyMiles will be accumulated to you for your Group Sales
Incentive.
Group Sales Incentive: Based on the volume of products sold by your team of IBA's, miles will be
accumulated in your IBA id. Based on the miles(Group Miles and Group MyMiles) accumulated every
week, Group Sales Incentive will be paid to you as per the eligibility criteria and as per Group Sales
Incentive Plan.
The Sales Incentives is calculated on the principle: "Higher the accumulated Miles, more the Sales
Incentives ". Within this broad principle, the company has a progressive Sales Incentives structure. Such a
structure is beneficial to both associates and the company as it results in the highest sales. At high volume
levels, the total accumulated miles of an associate depends significantly on the miles of team Associates.
Your Sales Incentives depends on the miles (Group Miles and Group MyMiles) accrued by you, subject to
the condition (Balancing Criteria) that the ratio of miles on your weaker side to those on the stronger side
must be 1:2 or more. 1:2 is also written as 0.5; Similarly 3:4 can be treated as 0.75, which is higher than
0.5. Therefore a ratio of 3:4 is considered 'more' than 1:2; on the other hand, a ratio of 1:3 is treated as
'less' than 1:2.
What happens ifmy miles are not balanced, if the ratio is less than 1:2?
In case, miles on one side are more than double the miles on the weaker side, then the number of eligible
miles on the stronger side are limited to double the miles on weaker side. For instance, if you have 4800
miles on the left side, and 1200 miles on the right side, the ratio is 1:4 which is less than 1:2. So, on the
stronger side, left in this case, the number of eligible miles would be limited to 2400 miles, double the
1200 miles on the weaker side. More examples make this point clear.
For the first 4,500 eligible miles, currently the Group Sales Incentives is paid as follows:
•
•Flrst'goo miles Rs.4800 {with an 'earlijadvantage offec)o" ,
Please note that the above are the amounts what you are eligible for. The Government of India stipulates
certain statutory deductions on Sales Incentives payments, which will be deducted by the company before
making a Sales Incentives Cheque/ ECS in your favour.
10% of the weekly Group Sales Incentive will be given in terms of Merchandising Voucher and remaining
in terms of Cheque, For first 900 miles Sales Incentives, Merchandising Voucher is not applicable.
'Early advantage offer entitles breaking up the first 900 miles in to three slabs of 300 miles each, Please
check the website of the company or contact your referrer to find out if this offer is currently on. Sales
Incentives payable under the Early Advantage offer is as follows :
..
fIrst '300 mIles .Rs. 1600
Second 300 mIles Rs. 1600
ThJrd 300 mIles Rs.1600
Since Group Sales Incentives are paid in 'steps' of 900 miles, those miles for which Group Sales Incentives
was not paid will be carried forward to the next week. This is done for each leg separately, Suppose that
you have 600 miles on each side, For the given week, 450 miles from each leg are considered and the
balance 150 miles on each leg are carried forward in the next week. Further suppose that yo u get sales of
200 in the left leg. and 800 in the right leg in the next week. The total eligible miles, and those further
carried forward, would be:
cc-
•
'.i
•
..,I
'..,1
•
from week to week, and is set such that the overall sales incentives paid by the company is capped at Rs.
45 per unique Mile of sales. This cap, is reviewed from time to time .
..,I
Since the variation in the step rate makes planning of your work and income difficult, the company has a
..,I
Motivational Step Rate for those with limited business. For those associates who have already received
Group Sales Incentives for 4500 eligible miles, but whose weekly eligible miles are only of one step, that
'.I is, 900 miles, Group Sales Incentives is calculated at the Motivational Step Rate. In case your sales
increase to 2 steps (1800 miles), your Group Sales Incentives would be calculated as per the actual Step
--
....1
Rate. After receiving Group Sales Incentives at actual Step Rate for a few weeks, if your sales again drop
down to the single step in any given week, Sales Incentives for the week is calculated at the Motivational
Step Rate. Thus, the Step Rate applicable after accumulating 4500 eligible miles depends on the number
of steps in a given week.
...;
Currently, effective 16th July 2011, the Motivational Step Rate is for Single Step is Rs. 3,400/-, which is as
'..J usual paid after statutory deductions. The difference between the Motivational Step Rate and the actual
Step Rate is funded by the top 10 earners and the company. Please note that this is reviewed every
..." quarter.
The willingness to work harder, bestows rewards upon you. You are raised to the higher levels where you
