An Indian entrepreneur based in Dubai has sparked a debate over workplace professionalism after saying that many Indian clients are difficult to deal with, citing lengthy sales cycles, aggressive price comparisons, micromanagement and delayed payments.
Mahima Jalana, who runs an agency and has been building the business for nearly six years, shared her observations in a LinkedIn post titled, “Indian clients don't know how to be a client.” She acknowledged that the comment could sound harsh or derogatory but said her experience had led her to that conclusion.
