Chennai 400 million of litres per day desalination bids are close to completion and might get awarded in Q1 FY23 according to the management.

Strong orderbook of Rs 100 billion (3.2 times trailing twelve months sales) lends visibility; however, 34% of it comprises operation and maintenance orders, which restricts near-term growth.
