At the same time, it has changed the ratings outlook on the company to 'stable' from 'positive'. The upgrade reflects the company’s continued strong operating performance and consistently strong credit metrics while maintaining good liquidity. Ba1 rating means obligations are judged to have speculative elements and are subject to substantial credit risk. Moody's has also upgraded to Ba1 from Ba2 JSW's senior unsecured notes rating.
