D Correct answer
Explanation

An agent needs product knowledge, client risk assessment, and after-sales service to sell funds ethically and effectively. Offering large rebates to attract investments is not required - in fact, SEBI regulates rebates to prevent mis-selling. Good sales practices rely on advice and service, not financial incentives.
