03 Sep 2012 Evaluate

Interbank call rates were at 7.95/8.00% little changed from its previous close of 7.90/8.00%, as banks were adequately covered to meet funding needs, with comfortable liquidity condition, further providing a lid to the gains of overnight cash rates. However, even hopes that RBI would resume bond purchases in late September on account of tightened liquidity because of tax outflows, also kept call rates below the repo rate.

The banks via Liquidity Adjustment Facility (LAF) borrowed Rs 16,830 crore through repo window on September 3, 2012, while, the banks via second LAF borrowed Rs 37,080 crore through repo window and parked Rs 50 crore via reverse repo window on August 31, 2012.

The overnight borrowing rates touched a high and low of 8.05% and 7.90% respectively.

According to the Clearing Corporation of India (CCIL), the weighted average rate (WAR) in the call money market was 7.95% on Monday  and total volume stood at Rs 21,228.96 crore, so far.
