I think currently, what we are seeing is, if you really look at it, general public poll expectation from the RBI on the policy. It was supposed to be a hawkish pause. And that is what RBI actually did. So at that point of time, you did not do any action on the hawkish side, but you did make a couple of announcements that is, 4% is the target, and we might do OMO sales for liquidity purpose, very well clarified in the press conference also. But that also depends a lot on where US yields were. So I think where the US yields were, that is where the market was a little heavy and they did consider that. And that is where we spiked up. I think it will still now track US yields tomorrow, it does not look like, but if hypothetically, if US will drop down, then definitely we will see some relief there on the bond side.
