The upgrade follows the company's successful asset sale to JJKSL, generating INR373 billion in proceeds that will reduce leverage to below 2.0x by FY27. Improved profitability, volume growth, and strategic capex plans support the rating, though cyclical industry risks and high capex intensity remain.
