The Reserve Bank of India (RBI) did not accept any bids in a recent bond buyback auction, according to results released on Thursday. The auction aimed to purchase government bonds maturing this financial year, with a target of 300 billion rupees ($3.18 billion). However, investors only submitted bids worth 10% of the total amount sought.
Traders attributed the low interest to the abundant banking liquidity, with a treasury official from a private bank stating that banks already have surplus funds and are seeking other investment avenues. The auction follows a total of 257 billion rupees in bond buybacks so far this financial year.
