India Kids Fashion Show — Payment not received and Unethical Behaviour

Address:

Jaipur, Rajasthan

IKFS came to Bangalore in April 2015 and requested us if we could help them with the Kids Fashion show in Bangalore. I personally, along with my company (4 employees) spent more than 12 hours a day for almost 4 weeks, signing up kids, bringing IKFS sponsorships, finding the hotel and getting them a 5 star hotel at a very low price, conducting the etiquette, grooming and voice modulation classes for all the kids enrolled and we made the show a success for them. We also provided office space and food for the entire team who landed form jaipur. Mr Vinod Sharma, the owner/communications head ( absolutely no communication skills and definitely has no brains for honesty) borrowed 1.2 Lakhs from us as he begged us one day before the show that he didn't have cash to pay the Production guys and other last minute payment that needed to be done, We didnt want the show to stop, so we helped him with the money to continue hoping that he would return in good faith. I also have an agreement with Mr Vindo Sharma that he would pay my company 20% of the sponsorships we brought him. As soon as the show was over, we asked him to settle bills and pay us and he kept giving one excuse or another, and finally left to Jaipur. After 8 weeks and no payment yet, we wrote to him asking for the money and I was shocked to find out that he had not only cheated me of the 1. 2Lakhs he took from us and not paid us the money for the sponsorship (about Rs 65, 000) we brought, but he has not paid ANY of the vendors, The printing vendor, the production guys, the PR company, everyone calls us as IKFS used my office address (for free). I demand serious actions to be taken against them. They are cheats of the 1st order. Betray trust so easily. They promoted the event with Paul Smith Jr as the brand they would showcase and there was NO Paul Smith Jr int he picture, ( I dont think Paul Smith even knows they were being used). Every one of the vendors and parents call us for more information and their money back, We are not responsible, IKFS cheated the vendors and the parents and left with everyone's money., Please take serious action against them and please ask them to pay us back 1.85 Lakhs excluding rent, food and other expenses we have paid for when they were in Bangalore.
