So, the project is just launched and that's what happens, the collection depends on the construction stage. Because the projects had just begun, usually the cash flow which comes in terms of collection is 10% to 20%. And what you saw in terms of pre-sales number that collection will be due in the upcoming year, which is this year you might see a strong collection coming in because the construction stage has also reached significant stage.
