Answer:

The two holders of the office of profit can be a person from a private business or a person working in a private limited firm.  

Explanation:

The eligibility criteria for the President require that the ‘person should not hold any office of profit’ under the Union or any State government, or any ‘local or other authority’.

The Supreme court has laid the criteria for contesting the presidential election. According to Supreme court when an office comes specifically under the office of profit if the government makes the appointment, if the government pays the salary, if the person works for the government or if the government has any control over the person’s activities.
