Bond yields edged lower on Wednesday, tracking an overnight fall in crude oil prices and as investors await the release of retail inflation data for May, due later today.
In the global market, an uptick in US inflation and strong results from a $38 billion Treasury auction on Tuesday drove short-dated yields higher, flattening the yield curve. Furthermore, Oil prices fell, weighed down by a weaker demand outlook and a rise in US crude inventories despite growing expectations of ongoing OPEC-led supply cuts.

The benchmark five-year interest rates were trading 3 basis points lower at 6.80% from its previous close of 6.83% on Tuesday.
