Ceat is going to acquire Camso tyres and tracks business from Michelin. This transaction aligns with your goal to expand internationally but from the numbers perspective, is this deal going to be EPS accretive and if yes, can you quantify the impact then? Arnab Banerjee: Yes, it will definitely be EPS accretive over a period of time. First of all, it will take about six months to complete the deal. We will get possession of the property by May-June of FY26 and thereafter we will start consolidating this result.

That is a very good arrangement and when we gradually start getting control of the entire operation, it will be EBITDA accretive first and then EPS accretive. So, in the initial two to three years, we might see a slight dip in EPS which will come back up.
