Hi Rajath, first of all sorry for not answering over the weekend but I try to take a "real" break over the weekend and focus on some private work items.
But Ariel gave you very detailed and good advice, it seems that he would be a better mentor ;-) The office API will be of course the more difficult part of this project because you won't find so much documentation and samples as for Java. The UCB is a special candidate in the office API and it takes some time to understand it. Exception are playing a special role in the context of the UCB and you will learn this over time. The SDK contains also an example showing the usage of the UCB API. But it's a good idea to play around on your own and get some understanding how it works.
