The operating environment is improving gradually, and we remain focused on identifying the right opportunities to serve our customers effectively. We continued to grapple with industry-wide challenges that emerged in FY25. Despite stabilisation in operations, these factors continued to disrupt operations and collections, driving up gross slippage, credit costs and resulting in a loss for the quarter ended June 30, 2025.
