Bond Market | India's 10-year bond yield hits 5-week low tracking oil, US peers




Indian government bond yields declined on Thursday as oil prices and U.S. Treasury yields continued their slide, pushing the 10-year rate to a five-week low.

The 10-year benchmark bond yield was at 7.2530% as of 10:00 a.m. IST, after ending the previous session at 7.2711%. Earlier in the day, it hit 7.2399%, the lowest since Oct. 6.

"The move has now completely turned in favour of the bulls, and hence we are seeing new lows getting tested everyday," a trader with a state-run bank said.
