Interbank call rates were trading at 10.25/30% compared to its previous close of 10.20/25% on Monday as demand remained more or less the same at the start of the second half of reporting cycle. However, less drained liquidity condition could put off the pressure on call rates going further, given that Reserve Bank of India (RBI) has cut the auction size for Friday by Rs 5,000 crore. India’s Apex Bank will auction two bonds instead of four bonds planned earlier in the issuance calendar for marketable dated securities released in March.
