So, on the freight cost and availability of the freight, has there been any demand impact on this quarter. And what could be the cost impact in the Q1. And going ahead how do you see both the cost and availability issue? Amit Kalyani Look, there is an issue obviously, there is an issue of availability. I don't know if you are aware why a lot of containers are not available, besides the fact that shipping lines are taking longer routes, so they are stopping at less ports. So, overall, we have managed to mitigate almost all the freight cost increases for this quarter. And we will continue to work on that and between whatever we can do and whatever we structurally do with our customers, we will manage this.
If possible, to quantify the freight cost impact for the quarter? Amit Kalyani No, it's difficult, because, as I said it happens over a period of time, and we get recoveries over a period of time, or we do mitigating factors over a period of time. I can't quantify it, but we are managing quite well in the quarter, in spite of that.
