27 Jun 2011 Evaluate

The Inter-bank call money rates were trading at 7.60/65 percent, little lower from 7.65/75 percent at Friday’s close, as demand was lower and overall cash conditions in the system continued to remain tight. However, Indian cash rates closed marginally higher on Friday as demand from banks was firm, and traders said the rates are unlikely to ease even in the second week of the reporting fortnight due to tight liquidity. Liquidity in the banking system has been tight after companies paid advance tax last week. India’s top 100 firms in the Mumbai tax region paid 14 percent higher advance tax in April-June compared with a year ago.
