This has reference to Regulation 30(6) of the SEBI (Listing Obligations and Disclosure Requirements), Regulations, 2015 (the "Regulations").
The sharp fall in international steel prices due to excessive exports from China and other has triggered a review of Tata Steel's credit rating by Standard and Poor ("S&P"). The corporate credit rating has been downgraded by 1 notch.

ABJA Investment Co. Pte. Ltd.
| Issue rating on the Company's guaranteed senior unsecured notes | BB | BB- |
