I&rsquo m just interested in the free float requirement of the stock exchange. Is there an expected time line where the stock exchange will give you the lenience to the I think in April? Sunny Verghese Yes. As for the stock exchange, we need to have 10% free float to remain listed. We have lost that free float at this point in time. We were expecting the free float to be restored with the conversion of the warrants, which was &ndash which happened on the 28th of January. However, because some of the existing shareholders have accreted some shares, that did not happen. The next milestone is we have the restricted share awards to the management team and the performance share awards to the management team which will vest on 1st of April. When those vest, we will restore our free float about 10%, barring any of the existing shareholders not buying more shares and remaining at that level. So we are in discussions with the stock exchange and we have given them this plan. And we will wait and see what happens in April. But our view today is that with the vesting of the performance share awards and restricted share awards in April, we will restore our free float and therefore continue to remain listed." "
