GENERAL

 

Raghu Enterprise Ltd. is wholly-owned by Mr. Hitendra Dharambhi Dattani who is an Indian.  He is a Hong Kong ID Card holder and has got the right to reside in Hong Kong permanently.  Dattani is also the only director of the subject.

Incorporated on 12th February, 2009, the subject does not have its own operating office.  Its registered address is in the residence of Dattani as Whampoa Garden is a private housing estate.  The residential building is not trespassed by outsiders.  The subject has no employees in Hong Kong.

The subject is a diamond importer, exporter and wholesaler.  Commodities are chiefly imported from India, other Asian countries and Europe.  However, India is the principal supplying country.  Loose diamonds, polished and cut diamonds are wholesaled in Hong Kong and exported to India, the other Asian countries and Europe.  Business is still under development.  In 2009 and 2010, the subject suffered from a small loss.

The subject’s business is chiefly handled by Dattani himself.  He can be reached at his mobile phone number 9776 9373.

The subject is trying its best to penetrate the Hong Kong market further.

Since the history of the subject is just over two years and eleven months in Hong Kong, on the whole, consider it good for normal business engagements on L/C basis.

 

DIAMOND INDUSTRY – INDIA

 

-          From time immemorial, India is well known in the world as the birthplace for diamonds.  It is difficult to trace the origin of diamonds but history says that in the remote past, diamonds were mined only in India. Diamond production in India can be traced back to almost 8th Century B.C.  India, in fact, remained undisputed leader till 18th Century when Brazilian fields were discovered in 1725 followed by emergence of S. Africa, Russia and Australia.

-          The achievement of the Indian diamond industry was possible only due to combination of the manufacturing skills of the Indian workforce and the untiring and unflagging efforts of the Indian diamantaires, supported by progressive Government policies.

-          The area of study of family owned diamond businesses derives its importance from the huge conglomerate of family run organizations which operate in the diamond industry since many generations.

-          Some of the basic traits of family run business enterprises include spirit of entrepreneurship, mutual trust lowers transaction costs, small, nimble and quick to react, information as a source of advantage and philanthropy.

-          Family owned diamond businesses need to improve on many fronts including higher standard of corporate governance, long-term performance – focused strategies, modern management and technology.

-          The diamond jewellery industry in India today may be more than Rs 60000 mil and is rated amongst the fastest growing  in the world. Indi ranks third in the world in domestic diamond consumption.

-          Utmost caution is to be exercised while dealing with some medium and large diamond traders which are usually engaged in fictitious import – export, inter-company transactions, financially assisted by banks. In the process, several public sector banks lost several hundred million rupees. They mostly diverted borrowed money for diamond business into real estate and capital markets.

-          Excerpts from Times of India dated 30th October 2010 is as under –

 

DIAMOND SAGA – DIRTY DOZEN STUCK WITH 2K CR DEBT

This could be the biggest credibility crisis the Indian diamond industry has ever faced. Fifteen banks run the risk of losing Rs 2000 crore lent to a dozen diamond firms in Surat. Until about two months ago, they had not repaid  these dues. Bankers believe many diamantaires borrowed money during the economic downturn two years ago and diverted funds to businesses like real estate and capital markets. Many of themselves made money from these businesses but their diamond companies have gone sick and declared insolvency.

-          Most of the money borrowed from the banks in the name of their diamond business has been diverted in real estate and the share market. The banks are not in a position to seize their properties because in many cases, these were purchased in the name of their relatives and friends.
