What will lead to the growth going forward, I think these are very important parameters to understand besides what has already been leading to the growth, is building customer trust, addressing concerns around fraud management and simplify digital onboarding.

So if I were to look at the road map of Spice Money, where are we headed, so if we continue the fundamental problem statement of solving the access challenge in rural India and then I continue to repeat rural India for us is the 6 lac villages and the 6,000 blocks.
