We have further plans after that also but right now we can say for five years this is our plan.
ii. Strong revenue visibility
our current order book stands at Rs. 210 Crores

the additional 400 MTM installation of the capacity for seamless pipe is on track and expected to be completed by Q4 of the FY2024.
iii. Cash flow improvement from H2-24
Definitely a second-half will also see a much better operating cash flow as compared to what we have achieved in the first year but I think FY2025 would be a very good year, cash flow from operation should be there in good quantum.
