I appreciate all of you taking the time out to join our earnings call. As you would have seen in the results that we published yesterday, it's been a pretty solid quarter for CAMS in 4Q of FY '26. You know that the external environment has not exactly been friendly. But successively over the last 3 years, we've been able to beat that, and we expect that we have the mix of products and go-to-market strategy to continue doing this. Enterprise revenue for the quarter went up 11% for the , I mean, quarter-on-quarter, it was 1.3%, the reasons.

From a mutual fund business perspective, AUM at INR55.1 lakh crores is obviously significantly lower than the INR58.5 lakh crores that we achieved at some time in 4Q, but because of the impact of what's happening in the Middle East, it came down. However, this represents a 21% year-on-year growth and holding 68% overall share. Share is a great story on equity assets. I think overall, we are holding 68%. We grew AUM in …
