Bond yields edge higher on Tuesday

25 Mar 2014 Evaluate

Bond yields were trading higher ahead of the first-half borrowing calendar, which will be the next trigger for the market. Caution also prevailed ahead of the end of the fiscal year when banks typically tend to trade less ahead of the squaring of books, and ahead of the central bank’s policy review scheduled on April 1, 2014. Traders were keeping a close track on the rupee moves, which is likely to be the main near-term trigger. Meanwhile, Indian finance ministry officials are due to meet officials at the Reserve Bank of India on March 28, 2014 to finalise the government's borrowing calendar for the April-September period.

On the global front, US Treasuries yield curve flattened on Monday, with long-dated debt prices gaining while intermediate-dated debt prices pared losses, before the U.S. government sells $96 billion in new debt to investors nervous that the Federal Reserve may raise interest rates sooner than expected. Meanwhile, Brent crude fell towards $106.50 per barrel on Tuesday, dropping for a second straight session on disappointing manufacturing numbers from the world's biggest oil consuming nations, although supply concerns stemming from the Ukraine crisis checked losses.

The yields on new 10 year Government Stock 2023 were trading 2 basis points higher at 8.80% from its previous close of 8.78% on Monday.

The benchmark five-year interest rate swaps were trading 1 basis point lower at 8.50% from its previous close of 8.51% on Monday.

The Reserve Bank of India has announced the auction of 182-days and 91-days Government of India Treasury Bills for notified amount of Rs 6,000 crore and Rs 8000 crore respectively. The auction will be conducted on March 26, 2014 using 'Multiple Price Auction' method.
