Furthermore, our Adjusted EBITDA saw a significant improvement of 23.7% YoY, reaching INR 44.5 million (USD 0.5 million).

We further fortified our market leadership in the Corporate travel sector by signing 26 new corporate customer accounts in the December quarter in our Corporate business with an annual billing potential of INR 2,237 million (~USD 27 million) underlining the capabilities of our Corporate Travel SaaS platform.

In alignment with our commitment to shareholder returns, we are also pleased to report the repurchase of approximately 280,000 shares as of December 31, 2023 under the share repurchase program authorized by our Board and we continue to be active on the buyback front in the current quarter.
