{'csir diamond jubliee technology award': [0, 0, 1, 0], 'tata consultancy services': [0, 0, 2, 2], 'infosys technologies ltd': [0, 0, 1, 0], 'midas communications technologies': [0, 0, 1, 0], 'india': [8, 1, 7, 13], 'prime minister': [6, 3, 0, 4]}

The Council of Scientific and Industrial Research (CSIR) Diamond Jubilee Technology Award was given to Midas Communication Technologies in 2004 and was awarded to them in September 2005 by the Prime Minister of India.

Option 1, Infosys Technologies Ltd is inaccurate because, while this company has received multiple awards and recognitions over time, it didn`t receive the CSIR Diamond Jubilee Technology Award for the year 2004.

Option 3, Tata Consultancy Services is incorrect as well. Despite this company`s success and contribution to the technology sector, it didn`t win this specific accolade in 2004.

Option 4, Biocon India Ltd, again, didn`t receive this award. Even though Biocon is known for its advancements in biotechnology, it was not the recipient of the 2004 CSIR Diamond Jubilee Technology Award.

The only company among the options that was awarded the CSIR Diamond Jubilee Technology Award in 2004 is Midas Communication Technologies (Option 2), which is thus the correct answer.
