  We respond to the comments of S. Sharma et al. [Phys. Rev. D 91, 038301
(2015)] on my recent paper, Y. Giraldo [Phys. Rev. D 86, 093021 (2012)]. In
their comments, they begin discussing a particular class of five-zero texture
non-Fritzsch-like quark mass matrix, which was proposed by me, and questioning
its validity. Then, they put in doubt the phases included in the unitary
matrices used for diagonalizing the quark mass matrices, from which they claim
that the CP violating parameter $\epsilon_k$ obtained does not agree with the
experimental value. Because of these comments, finally, they recommend being
careful while analyzing the implications of Weak Basis transformations on
textures. Other minor points are also discussed by them.
  In the following, I will show that the mentioned five-zero texture
non-Fritzsch-like quark mass matrices is completely valid and generates all the
physical quantities involved, including the CP violating parameter
$\epsilon_k$, for which is required the inclusion of phases in the unitary
matrices used for diagonalizing the quark mass matrices in order to put the CKM
matrix in standard form. These phases can be rotated away so they do not have
any physical meaning. Finally, the relevance of the weak basis transformation
is appreciated: which is {\it complete} and facilitates calculations,
especially of textures zeros.
