Dealers in Gujarat have already formed a core committee consisting of legal and finance representatives to decide on the plan of action including a series of protests which began in mid-june with a day's protest and refusal to buy Microsoft products for one quarter.
Close to 300 dealers and resellers from Ahmedabad, 300 from Surat, 150 from Vadodara, 75 from Vapi, 75 from Ankleshwar-Bharuch and 50 from Navsari have pledged support to SITA.
The association has also received written support from IT associations in Maharashtra, Uttarakhand, Pune and Lucknow. Microsoft had served anti-piracy notices to resellers in Surat early in May, which did not go down well with dealers and resellers in the state.
