India's Sovereign Green Bonds See Strong Demand and Stable Greenium
India's sovereign green bonds have gained traction, with insurers showing strong demand that supports a stable 'greenium'—a premium where investors accept lower yields for environmentally sustainable projects. New Delhi recently sold 50 billion rupees of 30-year green bonds at a four basis points greenium, the highest since issuance began in fiscal 2023. The total outstanding sovereign green bonds now stand at 877 billion rupees, with calls from market participants to increase supply amid growing investor appetite and regulatory benefits for insurers.
