Does that mean it's a connectivity problem?
Yes, it appears to be a connectivity problem of some sort. The next step
in the resolution chain for yarnandwaste.com would be the nameservers at
96.31.75.113 & 96.31.75.114 and I can resolve just fine from those. What
happens if you try to resolve yarnandwaste.com directly from
96.31.75.113/96.31.75.114?
Those IPs look like they might be on the same subnet; possibly one or
more Single Points of Failure might cause the whole domain to become
unresolvable for some period of time.
Also another issue is with gegreklam.com which have different results when
dig +trace and without +trace, kindly check below results:

I guess this was your point by "starting with no cache" since it gives us 2
different NS results, right?
Right. Both domains are actually mis-delegated (for yarnandwaste.com,
the delegated nameservers are in durgamatamandir.com, versus
overlineindia.com in the zone itself, and for gegreklam.com, the
delegated nameservers are in dhksoft.com versus rawshen.com nameservers
in the zone itself).
gegreklam.com is worse off than yarnandwaste.com, because ns3.rawshen.com and ns4.rawshen.com (which you appear to have cached) don't even resolve to A records.
The .com servers have glue records for all 4 of those delegated nameservers, so "fresh"
queries, following down from the delegations, should work fine (barring any connectivity problems).
The problem comes in when you have the NS and associated A records cached, and then some of them
expire from the cache before others. That's why it's always good practice to have your delegation
NS records match the NS records at the apex of the zone. In the case of a migration between one set
of nameservers and another, it might be necessary for one set of NSes to be a superset of the
other, but they should never be completely different; doing so either sets up "glue-less"
NS records (NS records pointing in-zone, which the parent servers know nothing about, and therefore
cannot provide glue for) or fragile interdependencies between domains -- sometimes even dependency
loops (A publishes nameservers in the B domain, B publishes nameservers in the C domain, C
publishes nameservers in the A do
main). Either way, such mismatches are apt to break things.
I'm not quite sure why C.GTLD-SERVERS.NET didn't return you the A record for
ml1.dhksoft.com, since I get it in my response:
$ dig gegreklam.com +norec @C.GTLD-SERVERS.NET

It's possible that the dhksoft.com glue records might have been temporarily
purged from the registry (if there were no known dependencies), and then popped
up again later, but this seems unlikely. Although, I will note that the
dhksoft.com domain appears to be about to expire (Expiration Date: 2009-10-29
16:48:25 according to WHOIS), so they may be making some registry changes to it.
Another possibility is that C.GTLD-SERVERS.NET might have deliberately omitted
the A records as a bandwidth-saving measure, knowing that there were/are no
interdependencies between dhksoft.com and gegreklam.com, or any dependency
topology of which those 2 domains were a part, and therefore anyone who needed
the A records could simply re-query for them (which dig +trace doesn't do,
apparently).
