Sri Lanka's Blue Diamond Jewellery Worldwide PLC (BLUE) has recorded a net profit of Rs.26 million for 2Q12, largely supported by a 19 million non-cash write back of outstanding payables to Ceylinco Investment Company.
 
The ‘Note 7’ of the interim accounts said, “The Board of Directors had decided to write back the total outstanding balance of Rs.19, 376, 991 payable to Ceylinco Investment Company Limited as a non existing liability during the quarter as an amount received as marketing support during previous years”,
 
A similar write back amounting to Rs.24 million occurred in the previous quarter (1Q12) on account of settlement of a credit facility.
