GENERAL

 

Having issued 2 ordinary shares of HK$1.00 each, Diamond Mine Corporation Ltd. is wholly-owned by Mr. Shital Girish Bagadia who is an Indian.  The directors of the subject are Mr. Girish Vasharambhai Bagadia and Mr. Vijay Vallabhbhai Lakhani, both of whom are India passport holders.

The subject is a diamond importer, exporter and wholesaler.  The subject has got an affiliated company Sheetal Hong Kong Ltd. [Sheetal HK], a Hong Kong-registered firm which is also trading in diamonds and jewellery.  Sheetal HK is a member of the Sheetal Group which is an India-based firm.  The subject is an associated firm or business partner of the Sheetal Group.  To our knowledge, the Group is owned by the Kakadia family.

Currently, Sheetal HK is trading in loose diamonds, carat size diamonds, fancy diamonds and other precious stones.  Mr. Girish Vasharambhai Bagadia is also the Chief Executive Officer of Sheetal HK which is a member of Diamond Federation of Hong Kong, China Ltd., Hong Kong.

Sheetal Group, with more than 35 years in business, is one of the leading manufacturers of polished diamonds in the world.  With a global presence, Sheetal has firmly established itself in important jewellery markets, specializing across the value chain from mines to market.

Sheetal’s association with major diamond mining companies like De Beers, Rio Tinto, Alrosa and others enables it to source and distribute consistently in volume and variety.  It procures diamonds from mining companies in Canada, Russia, Africa and Australia.  Along with a robust employee base, Sheetal has developed state-of-the-art factories equipped with advanced equipment.  Over the years, it has achieved a reputation of unique end-to-end supply capability and being the brown diamond specialist.  It has commanded market leadership position in the brown diamonds segment for more than 11 years.

The famous brand of Sheetal is “KIAH”, an Australian aboriginal word means “coming from a beautiful place”.  With a network of 15 exclusive showrooms across major cities in India and Dubai, “KIAH” today is one of the leading brands in the diamond jewellery market in India.

Indirectly, the subject also has had business ties with major diamond mining companies and is able to provide clients with rough diamonds, loose diamonds with competitive prices.

The subject is supported by the Sheetal Group.  Annual sales turnover is rather steady.

On the whole, consider the subject good for normal business engagements.
