Yes, that's what I want. At SRL and at Apollo, what are your major responsibilities?
In this B2B business, we are dealing with significant price competition. For example, if the XYZ center is not performing the thyroid stimulating hormone (TSH) test because they lack the machine, they outsource it to a nationalized lab. This leads to rate competition as they look for the cheapest outsourcing option.

Yes, that's what I want. At SRL and at Apollo, what are your major responsibilities?
They might contact Dr. Lal PathLabs, offering to send 100 TSH samples a month and ask for the per-test cost. If Dr. Lal offers them a price of 60 or 100 rupees per TSH test, they will then compare this with Metropolis or SRL's prices. This is a practical scenario currently happening in India.

And the other organizations are primarily what, just mom-and-pop shops?
Yes, exactly. There are national leaders like Dr. Lal, SRL, Apollo, Metropolis, etc. These organized players are making only 5,000 crore per annum. The market opportunity is around 85,000 crore, which is a B2B opportunity.
