The new symbols and definitions as given in Annexures 1-6 shall henceforth be used for the new ratings/ reviews by the CRAs. 6. For existing outstanding ratings, the CRAs shall: (i) disclose new rating symbols and definitions on their websites; (ii) update their rating lists on their websites; and (iii) inform their clients about the change in the rating symbols and definitions and specifying that this should not be construed as a change in the ratings. 7. The CRAs shall ensure compliance with the requirements specified at Clause 6 above, as early as possible but not later than 4 months from the date of issuance of this circular. 8. The CRAs shall communicate to SEBI, the status of the implementation of the provisions of this circular by October 31, 2011. They shall also place the compliance status of this circular before their Boards. 9. This circular is issued in exercise of the powers conferred by Section 11 (1) of Securities and Exchange Board of India Act, 1992 read with the provisions of regulations 13, 18 and 20 of SEBI (Credit Rating Agencies) Regulations, 1999 to protect the interest of investors in securities and to promote the development of, and to regulate, the securities market.
