The complete stock maintenance procedure is categorically divided in two parts. 1. Stock to be maintained by Distributor 2. Stock to be maintained by Retailer
In the case of Distributor, he has to keep the LAPU balance for minimum 7 days; Here 35% of the value must be in RCV. In the case of Retailer, he has to keep LAPU balance for 3 days (minimum amount Rs.1500); Here 33% of the value must be in RCV. (The FSE visits each Outlet in alternative days whether there is any shortage of product or not. The supply system of Airtel is so strong that a Retailer will never go with shortage of product. It is also a compulsory task for each FSE to go and to ask Retailers whether there is any shortage of product, once in every 2 days.)
