partialRetail slippage segments and recovery catch-up?
Directionally, they are coming from the unsecured product segments. We have never given you product-specific details, so we would not like to start doing that now... recoveries from written-off accounts for the quarter are actually up 49%, up 67% sequentially... if you add the two quarters together, you pretty much get what we had promised.

As long as the market remains disciplined about pricing for deposits, we would expect a reasonable part of the bank book to be repriced... it is unlikely for deposit rates to go up.

directWhy make contingent provisions of INR 520 cr when no pressing asset quality issues?
We did have a one-time write-back of INR 550 crores... we thought it was a fair and opportune time to create a balance sheet strength for which we created the INR 520 crores prudent provision. On a net basis, they broadly equalize.
