Gilt trading declines to Rs 82,900 cr in H1
MUMBAI, OCT 12: Trades in the government securities market fell to Rs 82,918 crore in the first half of this fiscal from Rs 85,579 crore in the comparable period of 1997-98, according to Credence debt market review.Uncertainty about the interest rate and the Reserve Bank of India's preference for rupee-stability took a toll on trading in government securities, Credence says. Trades in the public sector taxable bonds were dull and papers that were traded included the 16.50 per cent PSEB 2003 and SAIL 14 per cent 2005 at a YTM of 14.26 per cent and 13.50 per cent respectively. In the tax-free segment, papers traded included the 9 per cent Hudco 2001 in the 10.03-10.06 per cent range and the 10.50 per cent KRCL 1999 at a YTM of 9.77 per cent.
