While granting bail to two accused in the multi-crore QNet multi-level marketing (MLM) fraud case, the special Maharashtra Protection of Interest of Depositors (MPID) Court said the activities of the MLM are not legal. The MPID Court granted bail to Srinivas Rao Vanka, Magaral V Balaji and Aditi Mitra.
"I would also like to mention here that prima-facie the activities of QNet seems to be not legal. The reasons for the same is already discussed in the bail orders of the co-accused. Hence pending the final hearing of the petition before the Supreme Court, they cannot be allowed to continue with the same or similar or like illegal activities, "Justice DP Surana said in an order issued on 30 March 2017.
Based on the decision given by the apex court, the MPID Court granted bail to Vanka, Balaji and Mitra on similar terms and condition as stated by the Supreme Court while giving bail to prime accused Michael Ferreira, the former world billiards champion, and his partner Malcolm Nozer Desai last week.
Requesting the MPID Court to reject the bail applications, Gurupreet Singh Anand, the complainant in the case, stated that the Bombay High Court has held the activities of QNet as illegal which was confirmed by the Apex Court and as such, the illegal activities should not be continued.
In his order, the Special Judge of MPID Court stated, "The role of applicants (Vanka, Balaji and Mitra), as regards to Section 3 of the MPID Act is concerned, being Director, Independent Representative (IR) or trainer will be less to the role of Michael Ferreira and Malcolm Desai. So also, when the order of the Apex Court, is very clear that there shall be stay on further proceeding in all the 19 first information reports (FIRs) pending hearing and final disposal of the petition, there is no propriety in keeping the applicants too behind the bars."
Earlier, the Bombay High Court had rejected the anticipatory bail applications of all the accused calling the whole business of QNET as “prima facie illegal business”.
The HC order mentioned "The motto of the company 'sell more, earn more' appears very attractive and innocuous. However, this motto is fully camouflaged. The company stands on a basic statement that people can be fooled. Thus, the true motto is 'sell more earn more' by fooling people. In fact it is a chain where a person is fooled and then he is trained to fool others to earn money. For that purpose, workshops are conducted where study and business material is provided with a jugglery of words, promises and dreams. Thus, the deceit and fraud is camouflaged under the name of e-marketing and business."
"It has very grave and serious impact on the economic status and mental health of the people on a large scale. On considering parameters of section 438 of the Code of Criminal Procedure, I am not inclined to protect the accused. It will not be out of place to mention that such circulation is required to be stopped. It is necessary for the prosecution to take injunctive steps against this business activity, which is prima facie, illegal.”
Even, the Serious Frauds Investigation Office (SFIO) had termed the whole business of the QI GROUP in India as a “threat to the national security” said the whistle blower Gurupreet Anand who submitted the SFIO report in Bombay High Court as well as Supreme Court of India along with other documents and the Supreme Court had dismissed all special leave petitions (SLPs) filed by all the accused ordering them to surrender within seven days.
In February 2014, the Enforcement Directorate (ED) too had registered a case under the prevention of money laundering act (PMLA) against QNet, Vihaan Direct Selling, Ferreira and QNet founder Vijay Eswaran and three other independent representatives (IRs) of the MLM operator.
Gurupreet Singh Anand, a computer consultant from Lokhandawala, Andheri in his first information report (FIR) stated that his wife was duped for Rs30,000 by some people who had introduced themselves as the independent representatives (IRs) of QNet. Anand told the police, “They (IRs) had said that one of the bio-products my wife bought could be used to treat my 12-year-old son's brain-related diseases.”

I have been trapped by one college freind Amit Keyal ,from Calcutta University, who had once been a good friend and kind of a guide as well. I trusted him since college and respected him as I thought him to be a simple good man. But I am so mistaken as I released last year when he forced (by lying and showing confidence in him saying he is always there) me to pay him almost 2 Lakhs (I took a loan to give him that money) which he said he would give me back if I am not able to continue the so called e-commerce business (Qnet). Nothing was explained before the payment was made. all details about how the company works and what do i have to do are told after I was already trapped and had no other way but to follow what they say. They ask you to make friends and tell them that I m into a mind blowing business and henceforth trap the victim. I chose not to cheat people. My money is lost because since then I have called and messaged that so called businessman (traitor) numerous times but in vain and now after an year I have almost lost all hope of getting back my money .
But I m happy that I didn't turn into one of those kinds going around cheating my own friends and family.
There are many people making a lot of money out of this totally fraud MLM company. There are other MLM companies as well but they are ethical as they agree to that fact and reveal what a member has to do before trapping someone.

Dear Members,
Jai Hind to all. As you are aware I have had fought the QNET SCAM since last 4 years and devoted all these years full time towards taking effort to expose the QNET SCAM because of which millions of innocent people in India are loosing thier hard earned money and due to my efforts the #QNETSCAM had almost come to a stand still.
This fight has had taken a HUGE effort and affected my personal and professional life beyond what can be explained here, though all cases in which I appeared had verdicts coming in favor of the victims of #QNETSCAM
In Bombay High Court and the Supreme Court I have faced the best and most expensive lawyers in India like Mahesh Jhetmalani , Kapil Sibbal, Salman Kurshid , Dushant Dave etc but they could not protect the accused involved in the #QNETSCAM till recently when...
These accused cheated and played FRAUD upon the Supreme Court and obtained an stay order on all proceedings against QNET all over India. It is very very Important for all of us to come together and unite so that this fraud can be exposed and correct facts are brought before the Supreme Court.
To carry forward this fight further I need to move to Delhi and need support from you all without which this fight will come to an end. I request Donations from you all for fighting this #QNETSCAM which is destroying lifes, families and careers and thousands of crores are being laundered out of our country India.
I request donations and the same can be send thru Bank transfer or deposits in my bank account number as below:
Account number: 32280724593

Follow option 1 or 2 as applicable in your case.
1)Why dont you guys say that you are from qnet while introducing yourself to a new comer.
2) Do you really think that your products are really that worth
3)If it is, i know many victims who are cheated, Are you guys ready to buy their products?
4)You know that qnet indian websites are blocked, still you do transaction via global website....dont you have any respect to indian laws?
5)Why do you really think moneylife is against you guys. What news it has fabricated?
6)Is your model sustainable? I vl be glad if you guys can give me the numbers.(At least say the successful people percentage). I being an 'google economist' have come to a conclusion that 85% people will NEVER get money. I dont say this. Maths say this. If you dont believe, do it your self.
6)Do you guys know the reason why SC gave bail? Dont you guys think that SC will not take any input from those 19 FIRs, Bombay HC order and SFIO report?
7) Always you guys say that 'Dont assume before knowing anything'. Then why dont you guys reveal what is our wrong assumption.
Its direct selling as you guys claim.So the prospect should like your products.Why do have to 'convince' someone to like your products?
You have commneted about education system.DO you have any idea about the dropout rates in indai?The drop rate is 4.3% for schools.(As per ministry of HRD). As you go higher classes, this dop out rate even decreases.And in so called genuine business of QNET, More than 80% can never get money.
I know untill now,49 persons got arrested albeit many are on bail. Continue your business of deciet and fraud. God might bless you with no 50.
2. Yes, Products are worth it.
3. To buy products of victims they have to make an effort you purchase a 10 lac car today and after a month go and sell it for 10lac..
can you? why is that not worth 10lac?
4. www.myqnestore.net Indian site never ever blocked my whole network has made purchases from this site.
5. Moneylife..lol.. they will see the magic. check out all the articles and have enough guts in your ass to sit with me i will tell you what is fabricated and what is not.
6. 95 percent people do not make money in share market is it a scam ?
7. you tell me reason moron why SC gave bail..haha
8. your assumptions about this industry and moneylife the fake morons you cannot do anything. we will prove you. wait and watch.
2)Haha, products are worth?? Can you please explain the products and their advantages over their competitors in economicl and utility terms. Its a request. You cannot refrain from answering this because products are genesis of this business as qnet claims.
3)Cheating is a genuine art in which many Qnet IRs have passed in distinction. I exclude you since you claim that you say, you are from qnet. Might you be clean, but dont endorse all other QNET IRS. I have 10s of victims. Now coming to your car analogy, you are absolutely correct. But how can someone sell a Chi Pedant,some beuaty products at an exaggerating prices when he himself found those are not worth that money?
4)I never know this www.qnetstore,net existed. Thanks for this.If its a indian domain,suitable action will be taken similar to other qnet indian websites.By the way you are yet to answer http://www.qnetindia.in and http://www.qnet.net/ are blocked.
6)Ok, i accept that that moneylife is against you and all the stories it tell are fabricted. How about umpteen number of complaints on Quora,complaintboard forum etc...Are these fabricated too?
6)Share Market has transparency. If people lose money, they dont cry foul.They accept it. Had qnet too transparent, then there wouldnt be such hue and cry against it.
7)Yes SC gave bail, not guilty free. Had they been guilty free, their passports wouldn't been confiscated? Just wait few more months. Tell me one thing. What will be your opinion if SC says Qnet is a illegal company.Are you ready to give your money back?
8) You say we cannot do anything? :) Haha..unforunately every court where the investigation have started said you guys are wrong. MPID court, Bombay HC, ....Mind you, Delhi high court too didnt quash the FIR. .Dont assume that SC will not take a cognizance of all these.
Or even if, let's say I join this, I don't have enough guts to fool my friends to get into this business by selling them the fake dreams and ruin their lives.
My one friend is asking me to join this. I will agree to join this and will set a meeting with that person who is going to tell me all the details about theri so called business. I will teach that moron a lesson he will never forget.
Direct selling is 180 billion USD Industry and morons like you think that it is a scam. go and check facts.
