May’10 – When I came to know that their Kolkata Centre had closed, I called up their customer support helpline (as mentioned in the website) & spoke with different executives. Two of them are Atul Singh & Pia Gupta. They informed that the Kolkata Centre had been closed, however for future correspondence, I need to contact their Kolkata SPOC: TARUN KHANNA Contact Number - [protected]/[protected], Email Address - khanna.[protected]@yahoo.com , [protected]@nimonweb.com.
In between another person named Ankit Sharma ([protected] / [protected]) who introduced as the HR manger also contacted me few times.
After doing repeated follow-ups with Tarun Khanna, that I would want to appear for the Exams, finally I received the question paper set by Aramex courier – docket number – [protected].
28th Sep’10 – I couriered back the answer papers through DTDC (Consignment Number – K[protected], post telephonic discussion with Tarun Khanna ([protected]), at the below mentioned address:

NATIONAL INSTITUE OF MANAGEMENT
OFFICE NO - 404 PLOT 239 3rd Floor
SUNNY PALACE
NEAR HOTEL SURENDRA VILASH
MP NAGAR ZONE 1
BHOPAL - 462011.

Several follow-ups done thereafter with Tarun Khanna. Every time he had stated the papers are under checking & I’ll get the results & certificates soon. On 19th Oct, he had also confirmed me through SMS that I have passed with “A” grade.
Post this till date I have been following up with Tarun. However he rarely attends my call or reverts to my SMS. Every time he is giving a different excuse. The latest communication is their HR Manager Mr.Ankit Sharma going to contact me. But more than a month had crossed & not one had yet contacted me.
Last follow-up done on 21st Dec’10 with Tarun, he conveyed through SMS that the concerned person will call back & ultimately no one turned up till date.

I have all the SMS’s stored in my h/s, which Tarun Khanna had sent me from time to time.

Request you to kindly take necessary action against the concerned persons & help me in getting my certificates & results.
