GENERAL

 

Rolling Stone is a sole proprietorship set up and owned by Mr. Gaurang Ramesh Paymaster who is an Indian who has been in Hong Kong for a very long time.  He is a Hong Kong ID Card holder and has got the right to reside in Hong Kong permanently.

Business commenced on 1st July, 2001, the subject is a diamond and gemstone importer, exporter and wholesaler.  Rough diamonds and loose diamonds are mainly imported from India, other Asian countries and Europe.  It imports gemstones from Sri Lanka, Thailand, South Africa, etc.  Processed diamonds are marketed in Hong Kong which is the prime market.  In recent years, the subject also has exported some of its products to India, other Asian countries and the Middle East.  Most of its clients are Indian diamond retailers and exporters.  Business has been fairly active.

Last time, the subject’s office was located at Flat C, 4/F., Block 3, Palm Mansion, Whampoa Garden, Hunghom, Kowloon, Hong Kong where is the residential address of the proprietor.  In June 2002, the subject moved to the present address where is supposed to be Paymaster’s new residence.  This address is also the operating office of the subject.  The residential building Lake View Garden is not trespassed by outsiders.  The subject does not have any employees.

The subject’s business is chiefly handled by Paymaster himself.  He always frequents to India to purchase rough diamonds.  He has had close business ties with a number of diamond manufacturers and suppliers in, Mumbai, India.

The subject has had an affiliated company known as Crystural Gems located at its operating address.  Crystural Gems is also a diamond and gemstone trader and owned by Paymaster.

As the history of the subject in Hong Kong is over nine years and four months, on the whole, consider it good for normal business engagements in small credit amounts.
