India 10Y Yield Sideways Near 7-Month Highs

2025-11-24 08:46 By Joshua Ferrer 1 min. read

The yield on India’s 10-year G-Sec hovered around 6.5%, moving sideways near its highest level since early April, as investors assessed the government’s planned reform push.

The winter parliament session starting December 1 is set to take up a wide-ranging package of bills covering insurance, atomic energy, and other key sectors, aimed at attracting investment and accelerating growth.

Prime Minister Narendra Modi aims to transform India into a “developed country” by 2047, a target that calls for growth near 8%.

Attention now will focus on upcoming Q3 GDP data this week, which is projected to expand 7.3%.

However, recent indicators suggest steep US tariffs are starting to weigh on the economy, as October’s record trade deficit combines with slower November activity, with manufacturing at its weakest since May and services expansion moderating.

Stalled US-India trade talks have further dampened sentiment, limiting policy support that could help offset the deficit and subdued inflows.

India Bond Yields Steady Ahead of Debt Sale
The yield on India’s 10-Year G-Sec hovered around 6.8%, steadying after retreating to a three-month low as investors awaited the outcome of a INR 320 billion debt auction while monitoring developments in the Middle East. Market participants expect bond yields to remain range-bound until the auction results provide fresh direction. Meanwhile, softer oil prices continued to exert downward pressure on yields, with Brent crude holding below $80 per barrel amid expectations of increased supply after tanker traffic resumed through the Strait of Hormuz. Investor sentiment was further underpinned by sustained overseas demand for Indian debt. Foreign investors have poured more than $2.2 billion into local bonds over the past 10 trading sessions following measures announced by the Reserve Bank of India on June 5 to encourage dollar inflows. Much of the recent buying has been concentrated in the 6.68% 2040 and 7.24% 2055 securities, with the latter included in the latest debt sale.

India 10Y Yield Falls to 3-Month Low
The yield on India’s 10-Year G-Sec hovered around 6.8%, extending its decline near a three-month low amid demand from overseas funds and foreign banks. Sentiment remained supported by strong foreign inflows, with overseas investors purchasing more than $2.2 billion of Indian government bonds on a net basis so far this month, the strongest buying pace in 15 months. Additional downward pressure on yields came from the Reserve Bank of India's temporary removal of the interest-rate ceiling on fresh FCNR(B) deposits to attract foreign currency inflows. However, further gains were capped after the Federal Reserve adopted a more hawkish tone, pushing US two-year Treasury yields to a four-month high and reducing expectations for a continued rally in Indian bonds. Meanwhile, oil prices remained subdued, with Brent crude trading below $80 per barrel amid optimism over a reported US-Iran peace agreement and the potential reopening of the Strait of Hormuz, a key global energy route.

India 10Y Yield Steady on Peace Optimism
The yield on India’s 10-year G-Sec hovered around 6.8%, little changed from the previous session as investors balanced optimism over easing geopolitical risks against uncertainty surrounding the preliminary US-Iran peace agreement and fresh debt supply. Market participants also monitored a scheduled sale of INR 216 billion worth of state government bonds. Sentiment remained supported by a sharp drop in crude oil prices after US President Donald Trump announced a memorandum of understanding to end the conflict. Brent crude had fallen nearly 5% in the previous session to its lowest close since March 4, although prices edged higher in Asian trading as investors awaited further details of the agreement. Meanwhile, foreign investors have poured more than $1.75 billion into Indian bonds over the past seven sessions following the Reserve Bank of India's measures to attract dollar inflows, further underpinning demand for government debt.
