Bond yields edged higher on Friday, as traders remain concerned on report  that CARE Ratings has revised India’s GDP growth forecast on account of subdued growth in the industrial sector and weakness in the agricultural sector during Q1FY20. The rating agency cut the GDP estimate downward from 6.7-6.8% earlier to 6.4-6.5% for FY20 with the underlying GVA growth of 6.3-6.4%.

Furthermore, Oil prices edged higher, with crude benchmarks poised for multi-week gains amid a sharp drawdown in US crude inventories, while trade tensions eased after Washington and Beijing agreed to hold high-level talks next month.
