In the FY 2019-20 and FY 2018-19, the turnover from the single customer was 80.41% and 77.70% of the total turnover (including tax). The loss of this single customer or a decrease in the volume of orders may severely affect its revenues and profitability, if the company is unable to develop and maintain a continuing relationship with its key customer or develop and maintain relationships with other new customers.
