India's benchmark 10-year bond yield dropped by 2 basis points to 7.39 per cent on Tuesday, after Reuters reported that the central bank was likely to conduct at least one more forex swap auction and three to four open market bond purchases.
The benchmark 10-year bond yield fell to 7.39 per cent, erasing the day's rise to be steady on the day. Yields had risen to 7.43 per cent earlier in the session on the back of higher oil prices.
The Reserve Bank of India will probably conduct at least one more swap of rupees for dollars after the general election, according to three officials with direct knowledge of the plan, part of an effort to support economic growth. RBI also plans to conduct more open market operations of up to Rs 50,000 crore over the next two months, an official said.
