**Operational Costs:** Total expenses for the quarter amounted to ₹372.36 crore, up from ₹318.19 crore year-over-year. The increase of approximately 17% was mainly driven by higher finance costs and staff expenses, indicating continued cost pressures and operational inefficiencies.
**Balance Sheet & Cash Flow Statement:** Unitech’s total liabilities now stand at ₹3436.64 crore, driven by delayed repayments of bank loans and public deposits, with ongoing efforts to negotiate settlements with creditors.
