- After obtaining just 38.72% from Mumbai University, Harpreet Singh Bedi (Ranbir Kapoor), who lives with his grandfather PS Bedi (Prem Chopra), gets employed with AYS Computers as a Salesman as he doesn't have the money to enroll into a private MBA college. This is where he will find out that honesty is NOT the best policy; will be treated as a 'Joker Sardar'; be shunned and mocked by his superiors and colleagues alike. His overtures to make a name for himself will compel him to partner with four other employees from the firm, namely Girish Reddy, Koena Shaikh, Chhotelal Mishra, and Nitin Rathore, leading to the creation of a fictitious organization - 'Rocket Sales Corporation'.
Nitin is the sales manager reporting to CEO Mr. Puri. Nitin was against hiring Harpreet, but Puri likes his sales skills & hires him anyways. Koena is the sexy secy. Nitin takes him on a field orientation trip & shows him the dirty tricks of sales. Girish is the corrupt service person who exorbitantly overcharges client for simple faults.
Harpreet is sent on a first client call to a big company NCC & the client asks for a bribe, which Harpreet refuses to pay & complaints about the purchasing manager on AYS letterhead. when he returns, he is threatened, insulted & berated by Nitin & Puri both. Then Nitin communicates Harpreet's act to all the employees & they all turn against him.
Harpreet starts cold calling customers & soon gets an order for 2 PCs from a new businesswoman Sherana. He finds that AYS is overcharging its customers. So he finds his own supplier (Lalwani) & sells the PCs in a fictitious company name: Rocket Sales Corporation. He gets Girish to assemble the parts he buys from Lalwani. But he feels guilty & decides to confess to Puri. But Puri again insults him in front of the NCC client in public. Harpreet decides to teach Puri a lesson.
He incorporates Rockets Sales Corp with Girish. Koena is angry at being overlooked for a promotion by Nitin & joins Harpreet. They start with the clients angry with AYS & offer amazing terms like 24-hour service, money back guarantees & so on & quickly establish themselves as a honest service provider. As the orders grow, they have to induct the AYS peon Chotelaal as the 4th partner as he knows how to assemble computers.
Then Nitin finally catches up to the scheme & confronts the group. He tries to blackmail them, but Chote shuts him up by threatening to reveal his bogus conveyance vouchers. Harpreet offers him equal stake in exchange for getting orders. Sherana meets Harpreet at a party & becomes his girlfriend.
As Puri finds about Rocket sales, they move the office out of AYS & in with Sherana, whom Harpreet asks for a favor to take client calls. Eventually Puri figures out that Harpreet is behind Rocket Sales Corp, as they as still using the AYS switchboard. He gets all of them arrested to set an example. Harpreet has to sign over the brand name & a non-compete clause for Puri to agree not to press any charges against the 5 partners. But they all lose their jobs.
Even this fails to help Puri as the Rocket customers leave AYS in their droves. Puri's attempts to bribe the purchasing managers doesn't work as now the clients want service excellence. They want the Rocket team back.
Puri attempts to lure Harpreet back by offering him a plum job. Harpreet refuses. Puri eats the humble pie & accepts that he can't service Rocket customers & returns the company back to Harpreet. Harpreet takes his team back into business & does well.
