The Deligne-Simpson problem in the multiplicative version is formulated like this: {\em give necessary and sufficient conditions for the choice of the conjugacy classes $C_j\in SL(n,{\bf C})$ so that there exist irreducible $(p+1)$-tuples of matrices $M_j\in C_j$ satisfying the equality $M_1... M_{p+1}=I$}. We solve the problem for generic eigenvalues in the case when all the numbers $\Sigma_{j,m}(\sigma)$ of Jordan blocks of a given matrix $M_j$, with a given eigenvalue $\sigma$ and of a given size $m$ (taken over all $j$, $\sigma$, $m$) are divisible by $d>1$. Generic eigenvalues are defined by explicit algebraic inequalities of the form $a\neq 0$. For such eigenvalues there exist no reducible $(p+1)$-tuples. The matrices $M_j$ are interpreted as monodromy operators of regular linear systems on Riemann's sphere.
