NEW DELHI, Nov 11 (AFP) - Standard and Poor's on Thursday gave a stable BB foreign currency rating to India's largest electricity firm for its 120 million dollar unsecured bank loan due in 2004.

The US rating agency also confirmed its BB foreign currency long-term corporate credit rating on the state-run National Thermal Power Corp. (NTPC), a Standard and Poor's statement said.

It said the rating reflected NTPC's "strong market position, adequate financial profile, supportive regulatory regime, favourable operating track record, and support from the government of India."

NTPC generates about 25 percent of the total electricity produced in India. It supplies power to nearly all government-owned electricity boards in Indian states.

NTPC posted a 16-percent jump in net profits to 591 million dollars for the fiscal year ended March 31.
