AGREEMENT BETWEEN FIRM AND
TRAVELING SALES AGENT
This is a preview. The full template is free on GitLaw.
This template is a sales agency agreement used by a firm to appoint a traveling agent for canvassing software products within a specific territory. It outlines the agent's responsibilities, including touring requirements, reporting duties, and expense reimbursement, while also establishing non-compete and confidentiality obligations.
About this template
What is this template?
This is a fixed-salary employment-style agency contract for field sales staff. It is not a commission-only independent contractor agreement, as it provides for monthly salary and adherence to company leave rules. It contains specific provisions for daily dearness allowances and travel class reimbursements often found in Indian labor contexts.
When should you use it?
Use this when hiring a dedicated individual to travel and promote products for a salary rather than a purely commission-based distributor. Use a Sales Distribution Agreement instead if the counterparty is a company buying stock for resale.
What's inside
| Clause | Name | What it does |
|---|---|---|
| 1 | Salary and Payment | The Firm obliges to remit a monthly salary of a specified amount of Rupees to the Sales Agent wherever they are located. |
| 2 | Touring Obligations | The Sales Agent must tour for a minimum specified number of days per month within a defined territory to visit customers. |
| 4 | Reporting and Accounts | The Agent must forward daily statements of business transacted, monies collected, and expenses incurred to the Firm. |
| 8 | Allowances | The Firm pays travel expenses for a specific class and a fixed daily Dearness Allowance for diet and related costs. |
| 9 | Termination and Misconduct | The Firm may terminate the Agent immediately for misconduct, limiting payment to salary and expenses due on the date of detection. |
| 11 | Non-Compete and Restraint | The Agent is prohibited from working for similar firms for a specified number of years within their assigned territory after termination. |
Who it's for
- an Indian partnership firm hiring an individual to conduct door-to-door or regional canvassing for software products
- a sales representative requiring a fixed monthly salary and dearness allowance for field-based business development
- a software company needing to restrict an agent from working for competitors within a specific Indian territory after employment
