Bond yields edge higher on Inflation concerns

16 Jun 2015 Evaluate

Bond yields edged higher on Tuesday on concerns that inflation will further accelerate. Inflation based on consumer price index (CPI) moved up slightly to 5.01% in May 2015 from 4.87% in April 2015. Fears that a weak monsoon could lead to higher inflation has been a key reason for bond yields to move higher.  The sentiments remained dampened as foreign institutional investors (FIIs) continued to sell Indian debt in June, taking overall sales in the last two months to $2.43 billion. Besides, some investors remained on the sidelines and refrained from any buying activity ahead of  a two-day policy meeting of the U.S. Federal Reserve's monetary committee starting later in the day.

In the global markets, U.S. Treasury yields dropped on Monday after New York manufacturing data disappointed and on concerns that Greece might default on loans and be ejected from the European currency after talks between the nation and its creditors collapsed. Further, US crude oil prices edged up on Tuesday, supported by warnings that a tropical storm was about to hit the coast of the oil-producing state of Texas, while oversupply kept Brent steady.

Back home, the yields on 10 year Government Stock was trading 4 basis points higher at 7.90% from its previous close of 7.86% on Monday.

The benchmark five year yields were trading up by 4 basis points at 8.13% from its previous close of 8.09% on Monday. 

The Reserve Bank of India has announced the auction of 91-days and 182-days Government of India Treasury Bills for notified amount of Rs 9,000 crore and Rs 6000 crore respectively. The auction will be conducted on June 17, 2015 using 'Multiple Price Auction' method.
