Sudheer told that we will Provide you separate sheet with stamp pad and signature as he told he had given The sheet. After came home and reviewed the complete document it says that Apart from this agreement any other written communication by cv representatives (Including on comapany letter pad and stamp paper was not valid). I will list out the point by Point difference between which they have said orally and what was in the Agreement, I can avail a 14 days holiday for 30 years free of cost (After 5 years you can upgrade to world plan or you Need to pay 5% tax which is rs 5000 for next 25 years to continue the same Plan) at any of the club hotels or the affiliated hotels and lifetime Membership of the club/fitness center, there will be no charge for using Country club and its fitness center, if member will avail any vacation then Only need to pay 8500 for 14 day in any country vacation’s and its associated Property or if you gone only for 3 days you need to pay only the amount of 8500/14*3 =rs 1821.
