Our Bureau

Mumbai, March 29

In the bond market, prices fell in reaction to `hawkish' statements made by the US Fed chief on Tuesday. The traded volume was around Rs 1,200 crore and prices fell by around 40 paise. A dealer at a private bank said that the US and Indian yields hardened after the Federal Open Market Committee meeting. The 9.39 per cent-5 year-2011 paper opened at Rs 109.45 (7.19 per cent YTM) and closed at Rs 109.27 (7.23 per cent YTM), around 40 paise lower than the previous close of Rs 109.66 (7.15 per cent YTM). The 8.07 per cent-11-year-2017 paper opened at Rs 104.30 (7.48 per cent YTM) and closed at Rs 110.42 (7.49 per cent YTM), down from Tuesday's Rs 104.67 (7.43 per cent YTM).
