What you say is right, I think the way the regulatory framework has been evolving all these years the industry definitely has to attain a scale and as a result of that today what we are seeing in the marketplace that 40 lakh crore industry size, about 20 lakh crore equity size is a function of how the industry has been expanding the base and building a scale.
