Dear Sir / Madam,
The Sale of Goods Act, 1930 defines "agent" as :
" Mercantile agent" means a mercantile agent having in the customary course of business as such agent authority either to sell goods, or to consign goods for the purposes of sale, or to buy goods, or to raise money on the security of goods.
In keeping with the definition, the person on whom you bestow rights to sell a product is deemed to be your agent.
