V. Kalyana Rama
I think we already announced, Ashish, on this the pricing. We passed on the increase in the fair to the customer.
Ashish Shah
Sure. So second is if we can just share the originating volumes for the quarter. V. Kalyana Rama: Yes. Mr. Swarup will give you.
Ashish Shah
Sure. And just last one, sir, this quarter if you see the employee expenses and the LLF, they seem to be a little bit on the higher side when I compare with the third quarter. So there is any clarity if you can provide on the same. Thank you.
Manoj Kumar Dubey
So, just for your clarity for apple-to-apple comparison, we have deducted INR72 crore that we provided for last year. So if I deduct that from last year, it comes to INR352 crore. And what are provisions we made this year because of good performance of the company, the PRP provisions goes up as well as the medical provision and other actuarial provisions. So if I do apple-to-apple comparison INR352 core has grown to INR364 core, which is 3.5% only. So that's the clarification for everybody to note. And this 3.4% normally it is 10% growth every year in the salary. 3.4% is only because the fact that attrition level is little higher nowadays for large company and we are not adding any further employees, although the productivity is going up. So that's the clarification.
Ashish Shah
Sure. And secondly on the LLF sir, that also seems to have gone up by when I come back with the third quarter levels.
