Bond yields trade range bound; Govt October-March borrowing plan awaited

27 Sep 2012 Evaluate

Bond yields remained range-bound since morning deals as traders preferred to stay on the sidelines ahead of the second-half borrowing plan due to be announced later in the day. Although the government is scheduled to borrow Rs 2 trillion during October-March, according to the budget, the street is speculating government to borrow an additional Rs 50000 crore for the year ending March.

On the global front, US Treasuries traded firm in Asian trade on Thursday, with the benchmark 10-year yield stuck near its lowest level in nearly three weeks, supported by resurgent worries over the euro zone's debt crisis and demand for mortgage bonds. Meanwhile, brent futures held steady above $110 on Thursday on renewed worries of supply disruptions from the Middle East, while an escalating euro zone debt crisis reinforced oil demand growth concerns and capped the gains.

The yields on 10-year benchmark 8.79% - 2021 edged 1 basis points lower at 8.16% from its previous close of 8.17%.

The benchmark five-year interest rates edged lower by 5 basis points at 7.07% from its previous close of 7.12%.

The Government of India have announced the sale (re-issue) of four dated securities for Rs 15,000 crore on September 28, 2012, which includes (i) ‘8.07 percent Government Stock 2017-JUL’ for a notified amount of Rs 4,000 crore (nominal) through price based auction; (ii) ‘8.33 percent Government Stock 2026’ for a notified amount of  Rs 6,000 crore (nominal) through price based auction; (iii) ‘8.97 percent Government Stock 2030’ for a notified amount of  Rs 3,000 crore (nominal) through price based auction; and (iv) ‘8.33 percent Government Stock 2036’ for a notified amount of  Rs 2,000 crore (nominal) through price based auction. The auctions will be conducted using uniform price method.
