Bond yields edged higher on Thursday, as traders remain cautious with a report that the goods and services tax (GST) collected in January (for December) is seen to be the lowest in the current fiscal.

Furthermore, oil prices steadied, but concerns over global growth and a sharp rise in US stocks kept the market under pressure.
