HIGHLIGHTS

 

The subject company was established by Rakesh J Shah, an Indian resident, as Japan       marketing office of Raj Gems, India.  He is elder son of J B Shah, founder and owner of Raj Gems, India.  This is a trading firm specializing in importing & wholesaling polished diamonds         from India, and from Israel, Belgium, Hong Kong, etc.  About 65% of the goods are supplied            from Raj Gems.  Goods are shipped to jewelry processors, jewelers centrally in greater-Tokyo    area, extending into Kofu, Yamanashi-Pref, a hub of jewelry factories and workshops, where the firm operates a branch office.  Also covers greater-Osaka region by its Osaka and Kobe Branch Offices.  Financials are only partially disclosed.

 

 

FINANCIAL INFORMATION

 

The sales volume for Jul/2005 fiscal term amounted to Yen 2,713 million, a 0.7% down from Yen 2,734 million in the previous term.  This is referred to sluggish consumer demand.  The net profit, on the other hand, increased to Yen 6 million from Yen 5 million a year ago.

 

For the term ended Jul 2006 the net profit is said posted at Yen 6 million, on a 1.4% rise in turnover, to Yen 2,750 million.  This is professed by the firm and not attested.  We therefore take this figure as estimated only.

 

The financial situation is considered maintained FAIR and good for ORDINARY business engagements.  Max credit limit is estimated at Yen 48 million, on 30 days normal terms.
