All these are interplay of market forces, these things have happened, this is going to happen and it will happen in the future. So to put this in clearer terms, it is not like they need to layoff all of these people, it looks good to investors! They are saying that we know what is happening and we are taking steps and it is good news. I see a great degree of caution, instability in the marketplace and that is what it is. So before analysts start asking them, what they have done, what is slow, they are taking precautionary steps and that is pretty good. The uncertainty is causing people to be very cautious and that is why people are not hiring and are laying off people who can be shed easily and keeping the guns dry. We have to wait and see what happens. Now, attrition would have come down and people who have made commitments in anticipation of higher attrition that would have come down. What is the Indian impact that you are seeing? They have also said half of this is in non-project kind of roles. People are getting ready and that is okay.
