PREFERENCES FOR ALLOTMENT OF STALLS :

• IIJS Premiere 2021 will be organized as a continuation of IIJS Premiere 2020 that was postponed due to Covid-19 and hence the allotment preference will be given only to the applicants who had been allotted the stalls and have their application advance amount deposited with Council. The order of preference is provided in the table below:

• As mentioned in our earlier circular about providing incentive to all those exhibitors that had chosen to carry forward their 25% advance amount paid for IIJS Premiere 2020, we are glad to inform you that we are offering a discount of ₹900 per sqm on the space cost. This discount is not applicable to those companies that have withdrawn their advance amount.
• Further to above, companies that had applied under combo offer (IIJS Signature 2020 & IIJS Premiere 2020) & were allotted booths at IIJS Premiere 2020 will get the then declared discount of 15% (Ordinary Member), 10% (MSME Member) & 5% (Associate Member) as per their membership type.
• Discount will be only applicable on the stall allotted at IIJS Premiere 2020. Eg exhibitor allotted 4 stalls at IIJS Premiere 2020 and applying for 6 stalls or more at IIJS Premiere 2021, discount will be given on 4 stalls and not on 6 stalls.
• Exhibitors who had been allotted stalls at the postponed IIJS Premiere 2020 and will continue with their participation at IIJS Premiere 2021 will get due preference for allocation of stalls at IIJS Premiere 2022. They will be able to retain their booth size and location as per IIJS Premiere 2020 allotment
• Participants who had been allotted stalls at the postponed IIJS Premiere 2020 and wish to opt out from IIJS Premiere 2021 will lose their preference and booth location at IIJS Premiere 2022
• New applicants of IIJS Premiere 2021 if allotted stall will also be given preference of participation with at least 1 booth at IIJS Premier 2022. Higher number of booths will be subject to availability.
