RBI Announces Rs 25,000 Crore OMO Sale Auction of Government Securities on October 13
The Reserve Bank of India (RBI) announced an open market operation (OMO) sale of government securities worth Rs 25,000 crore, scheduled for October 13. The auction includes six securities maturing between 2030 and 2034, with the RBI retaining discretion over individual amounts. This move aims to absorb surplus liquidity in the banking system, which has increased due to foreign currency deposits and government expenditures. Market participants expect bond yields to rise by 4-5 basis points following the announcement.
