Dear friend,
Keep your cool. Frustration is not going to help anyone. All I would say is, you should have kept your boss informed about the discussion between you and the Ops GM. Always ensure that all the updates should reach your boss only through you. It should not reach him through anybody else. Even though you have put in all the efforts, you should have kept your boss in the loop.
Now, let me explain a different scenario.
1) The senior management staff will be meeting each other on a regular basis, which you may not be aware of. They might meet for so many reasons. During such meetings, they discuss many things. Imagine if you were in your boss's position and some other department head was talking about the new sales account in the Senior Management Meeting. You would be totally embarrassed.
2) Even otherwise, if some other department head opens up about the new deal to you. Imagine if you were in your boss's position and you would be embarrassed because it would seem as if you have not received updates from your subordinates.
Being an experienced person, your boss could have handled it in a good way. But, as you said, he would have been worried about his own target.
The problem is that despite all your efforts, the Ops guy had gained the benefits because he would have projected it to the top management as his achievement. If you had kept your boss in the loop, I feel that he would have ensured benefits for himself and you as well.
I understand that you would not have concealed the information from your boss intentionally. But please ensure that this doesn't happen in the future. In today's professional arena, we need to be smart thinkers. We should also ensure that we don't embarrass or undermine anyone, particularly our boss.
Best wishes for a bright future. There is always sunshine at the end of a shadow. Please don't lose hope.

Dear friend,
"Move on with a positive note onward on your path" and find a better job. Also, look out for a fresh job and never overwork in a company that rightly values your contributions. New things are waiting for you.
My advice is to look forward to your career. Fighting is not wise; legal remedies may be required, which may not be possible except for a statement as you have written. I think you have proved you have skills; go for another job. Don't feel anything, and don't fight with your boss. You might meet him after some years, and then, obviously, he will realize his mistakes. I think the professional world is really small, so be honest with yourself and the company. Sometimes, seniors take it as a threat to their positions (it's a personal experience). Count yourself lucky that you have only spent 15 months of your career and have the rest of the employment to save.
Wish you all the best!

I agree with Imok. The corporate world is very small. Do not burn your bridges. You might require the experience letter from your ex-employer. Keep visiting HR consultancies for better opportunities. Stick to the same industry as you have gained good exposure. As soon as you get a new job, target the same client and bag it. Then meet your ex-boss and also inform the sales head of your previous company about the closure.

Feeling pity for you because you made all the effort to grow the plant into a tree, but the fruits are now being enjoyed by somebody else. What you can do is note this incident in your career notebook as a chapter of a real lesson and be cautious and aware of such moronic people because the corporate world is full of such butt-heads and greedy, evil-minded souls who simply do not want the buds to grow.
Don't lose hope; start your battle to conquer the field and see the flag with your name waving high in your department of work.
Best of luck for a new start

The way you narrated the story doesn't look like you have just a year of experience in sales; it sounds like much more than that.
Don't forget to write a review about the company where you worked. Use mouthshot.com or any other similar platform. Your feedback can help other young professionals avoid suffering while working for bad bosses and companies.
Cry as much as possible because I also do it; it provides much relief.
Never get demotivated; be thankful to your boss that you learned a lesson at this early age, where there is very little damage compared to the long run.
I highly recommend taking a week-long trip to have some fun. If you are interested in coming to Bangalore for a week for some downtime, let me know; I can share my room with you. Contact info: cnusim@gmail.com
Write on a piece of paper, "One fine day, I will be the boss of the person who cheated me," and keep it in your wallet.
Don't start drinking and smoking as if you lost a world war, my dear bro. Before you do that, remember that you are harming your own health by seeking revenge on others.
Have a good day!
Don't forget to smile when you meet that manager again. Pretend that you were so happy without him :-)
Cheers!

As per my understanding, your boss was worried about your progress and achievements. There was a serious threat to his job, and the only easy option was to move you out of the organization to be safe and also to close the new proposal.
We find such people all over in the industry. The easy way is to either get ahead of them before they notice or move away from them for a better future. Remembering the quote by Winston Churchill, "You will never reach your destination if you stop at every dog that barks."
Wishing you all the best for new assignments.
