Sales Targets & Performance Expectations

The role will have a structured ramp-up period rather than expecting full sales targets immediately.

Initial Ramp-Up

Period| Primary Objective| Indicative Sales| Gross Margin Target

Month 1| Product learning, prospecting and account development| No hard target| —

Month 2| Qualified pipeline development| ₹2–3 L| ₹0.30–0.50 L

Month 4| Increasing conversions| ₹7.5 L| Approx. ₹1.20 L

Month 5| Consistent monthly sales| ₹10 L| Approx. ₹1.65–1.75 L

Month 6 onwards| Full commercial target| ₹12–15 L/month| ₹2.25 L/month

Kaspersky products typically generate approximately 15–20% gross margins. Accordingly, Gross Margin / Contribution will be treated as a more key commercial performance measure than sales revenue alone.

Steady-State Monthly Expectations

- ₹2.25 lakh monthly Gross Margin

- Approximately ₹12–15 lakh monthly sales revenue

- ₹45–60 lakh qualified rolling sales pipeline

Sales Revenue Achieved| 20%

New Customers Acquired| 15%

Qualified Pipeline Generated| 10%

Opportunity Conversion| 5%

Collections| 5%

Margin Discipline

The role is expected to generate profitable sales, not merely topline revenue.
