What management said
So it is not -- I will not call it as an order. I will call it as an inquiry basket. So this was almost INR 300-plus crores inquiries, which we didn't finalize only because of these issues.
Well, yes, we would like to absorb most of the cost and the investments that we have made in GenX. In the next 2 or 3 quarters, we will have to book the orders which we alluded to. And once those are there, then we will be able to revenue those. So our efforts will be in making sure that we will go towards that breakeven.
What analysts pressed on
Analysts expressed concerns over declining margins and profitability despite technological advancements. Questions focused on the impact of raw material costs and the company's ability to secure new orders amid market uncertainties.
