Location/place: KOLKATA
Name of company/service: MAIDEN VOYAGE CONSULTANTS
MAIDEN VOYAGE CONSULTANTS (headed by Saurav Mukherjee and his wife Paromita Mukherjee) has cheated a huge number of merchant navy aspirants from different parts of INDIA. They duped huge sums of money from many aspiring candidates promising them to provide merchant navy training and to provide them placements in shipping companies. The courses that they offered (i.e A 3 months Pre Sea training for Cadets from India or Bangkok) are basically useless as they are not approved by IMO (international Maritime Organization) and neither these courses are recognized by THE DIRECTORATE GENERAL OF SHIPPING, INDIA. So if you pay them a lump sum for training the only thing valuable for you in your future proceedings are the 4 mandatory STCW certificates which you can get from any DG Shipping approved institute in India in turns of 11000/- INR and a Liberian/ Panama CDC (which has no value in the Indian Shipping Market) which you can get for about 20000/-INR. Regarding the other courses like GP RATING course, DNS, BSC Nautical Science, etc (which are approved by DG shipping, India) you really don’t need to pay money to any consultants to get admission because these consultants are not entertained by any boards like BES/ IMU (conducting the approved Pre Sea Training in India). Regarding placements this company has contacts with some roadside agents in Mumbai who can only waste your time, not provide placements. This company will take money from you and send you to mumbai to another agent and that agent will send you to another agent and another and another like just passing a football. And the candidate will have to stay in mumbai at their own expenses and when he gets sick and tired of this passing over and statrt claiming a refund then Saurav Mukherjee and his associates will either change their phone numbers and their office address or ask for the transaction proof from the candidate or show some other excuses (like processing fee and all nonsense) for not providing a refund.
@SAURAV MUKHERJEE- PLEASE ANSWER THE FOLLOWING QUESTIONS BEFORE CLAIMING YOUR HONESTY:-
Do you have any valid agreement with any registered shipping companies who claims that you are authorized to select/ provide placement/ recruit candidates in those shipping companies (on behalf of the shipping company)?? Please provide the name of those companies.
Are you authorized by any DG Shipping approved institute to select and send the candidates for getting trained in any of the approved pre sea courses provided by these approved institute?? If you are not then why are you claiming money from the candidates for these courses??
What is the address of your registered office?? And what is the timing of your office??
