Question: Neha Manpuria - JPMorgan Chase & Co, Research Division - Analyst

wanted to understand which of these factors contributed largely to the -- was there disproportionate contribution from one factor versus the other?
And how do you view something like a product mix or productivity? Is -- productivity, I can understand. Is product mix linked to the fact that we

utilization would have been lower. So I'm just trying to understand if the product mix was linked to the fact that COVID benefited certain -- sale of
certain type of products or certain bucket of products? Would that be a fair understanding?
Question: Nitin Agarwal - IDFC Securities Limited, Research Division - Analyst
