Bond yields edged lower on Monday as the World Bank said that India is likely to record its worst growth performance since the 1991 liberalisation this fiscal year as the coronavirus outbreak severely disrupts the economy.
In the global market, Most U.S. Treasury yields fell on Thursday as the Federal Reserve rolled out aggressive steps to prop up the economy during the COVID-19 pandemic, and weekly jobless claims remained huge. Furthermore, oil prices jumped more than $1 a barrel after major producers finally agreed their biggest-ever output cut, but gains were capped amid concern that it won't be enough to head off oversupply with the coronavirus pandemic hammering demand.
Back home, the yields on new 10 year Government Stock were trading 1 basis point lower at 6.48% from its previous close of 6.49% on Thursday.
The benchmark five-year interest rates were trading flat with previous close of 5.93% on Thursday.
