on account of increase in debt levels partly offset by improving overall capital structure. Interest
coverage ratio and DSCR is expected to remain at comfortable levels backed by better operating
performance. The company has lower interest obligations on account of subsidy received under
TUFS. Current ratio and NCA/Total debt is expected to remain at comfortable levels.
