GENERAL

Having issued 50 million ordinary shares of HK$1.00 each, Interjewel (HK) Co. Ltd. is jointly owned by Interjewel Singapore Pte. Ltd. which is a Singapore-based firm holding 51%, and Mr. Pratish Rupen Kothari who is an Indian holding 49%.

The subject is a diamond importer, exporter and wholesaler.  It has had an affiliated company in India known as Interjewel Pvt. Ltd. [Interjewel].  Besides the subject, Interjewel has set up a number of associated companies in Thailand, Belgium and the United States.

The subject is trading in carat diamonds, loose diamonds, colour and white diamonds.  It also offers clients with all kinds of diamond manufacturing service.

The predecessor of the subject Diamond World Holdings Ltd. was an affiliated firm of D. Navinchandra & Co., also an India-based firm.

Established in 1970, D. Navinchandra & Co. is one of the leading exporters of cut and polished diamonds, carat diamond and diamond studded jewellery in India.  It is a registered trading house recognised by the Government of India, Ministry of Commerce.

Having been ISO 9001 certified, D. Navinchandra & Co. is one of the few diamond companies which is able to get rough diamonds from four of the leading miners of the world, namely, Diamond Trading Company [DTC] and Argyle Diamond Mine (Australia), Diavik Diamond Mine (Canada) and Murowa Mines (Zimbabwe).

D. Navinchandra & Co. has established a global network with offices in large cities of the world.  It is exporting Cut & Polished diamonds to many countries which include the United States, Belgium, Italy, Germany, Japan, the Middle East, Hong Kong, Singapore and Thailand.

Now, the subject still has had business ties with D. Navinchandra & Co.  Its jewellery and diamonds are chiefly imported from India and Belgium.  Prime markets are the United States, Belgium, Japan, Singapore and the other Asian countries.  Singapore is its prime market as its holding company is a Singapore-based firm.

The business of the subject is chiefly handled by Mr. Kothari Pratish Rupen.

Overall business of the Interjewel Group is active and steady.  Business is lucrative.

In order to penetrate the international market further, the subject has taken part in fairs and exhibitions held in Hong Kong and other foreign large cities.  For instance, it took part in “HKTDC Hong Kong International Jewellery Show 2012” which had been held in Hong Kong Convention and Exhibition Centre, Wanchai, Hong Kong during the period of 16th to 20th February, 2012.

Besides, it is going to take part in “HKTDC Hong Kong International Jewellery Show 2013” which will be held in Hong Kong Convention and Exhibition Centre, Wanchai, Hong Kong during the period of 5th to 9th March, 2013.

On the whole, since the history of the subject in Hong Kong is about eighteen years, consider it good for normal business engagements.
