Mitron, Would You Be Happy If Someone Stole Your Customers?
Sounds crazy, right?
But that’s exactly what happened to Nut Khat, leaving him both shocked and thrilled.
Even though he knew the buyer had played a trick—one that drove him nuts—in the end, he was still satisfied.
How?
It all started with an order. But first, let’s talk about the man behind the move.
The Intelligent Man Ki Baat (Talk of the Man)
Jinesh Gandhi sat back, counting ₹2,000 notes, his fingers moving with ease. His shop was buzzing—laborers stacking sacks, customers bargaining, and suppliers making deals.
But not everyone was happy about his rise. His competitors whispered behind his back. Tried to poach his labourers. Overcharged him. Created hurdles.
But, Jinesh wasn’t just any trader. He was the kind of man who turned obstacles into milestones. A tough nut to crack.
The Order That Changed Everything
A trader walked in, leaned over the counter, and spoke in a low voice.
“100 kilos of cashews. Can you supply?”
Jinesh didn’t blink and nodded in affirmative.
Cashews meant Nut Khat.
The biggest supplier. The one everyone depended on.
Without wasting time, Jinesh made his way to Nut Khat’s shop. No middlemen. No delays.
He walked up to Amit Modi, Nut Khat’s owner.
“How much for 100 kilos?”
Amit didn’t even look up. ₹330 per kilo. Standard rate. Take it or leave it.”
Jinesh smiled, but inside, his mind was racing.
Something felt off.
He nodded and walked out – not to leave but to plan something.
To plan.
The Special Investigations Team Revelation
Jinesh made a call to his Special investigation team.
The team leverage its network of laborers, transport guys, and traders started feeding Jinesh some secrets.
And what he learned changed everything.
Nut Khat wasn’t giving him any special rate.
💡 ₹330 per kilo. 30 days credit. That was the market rate for everyone.
No discounts. No variations. He also found the Total market demand which was around 1,000 kilos per month.
The Hand That Flipped the Game
Jinesh returned to Nut Khat.
“I need 1,000 kilos. What’s the price?”
Amit’s ears perked up.
“Acha, bada order hai? ₹315 per kilo.”
Jinesh leaned forward. “Spot cash. What discount will you give me?”
Amit’s smile faded and a thought bubble appeared in no time. Spot cash. That meant no credit risk. No waiting for 30 days. More capital to reinvest.
He hesitated and said “₹300 per kilo.”
Jinesh took a step towards the door.
“Is that the best you can offer?”
Amit thought Losing a 1,000-kilo order would hurt.
“₹275. Final price.”
Jinesh smiled. “Done. Give me a day to arrange the cash.”
Turning the Tables
Now came the real move.
Jinesh approached Nut Khat’s own customers.
“I can give you cashews for ₹300 per kilo. But on one condition—15 days credit with postdated check.”
They jumped at the deal.
Within hours, every Nut Khat buyer was now Jinesh’s customer.
The order was placed. Next day, he supplied it to entire market
And Nut Khat? They had no idea what had just happened.
The Aftermath
Word spread like wildfire.
Amit stormed into Jinesh’s shop.
Before he could speak, Jinesh grinned and said—
“Howdy, Modi?”
Amit fumed. “How could you do this to me?”
Jinesh leaned back.
“Do what? Bring you a massive order? Pay you in spot cash? Save you from the hassle of chasing payments?”
Silence.
“You should be thanking me.
- No chasing money.
- No delayed payments.
- No dead stock.
- Faster reinvestment.
“Tell me, Mota bhai, where did you lose?”
A slow grin spread across Amit’s face.
“Well played.”
Jinesh extended his hand and placed on his shoulder and saif “hamara haath, aapke saath!”
He had the last laugh.
