GOVERNMENT BOND YIELDS surged on Tuesday due to lower demand and caution ahead of the Budget despite the announcement of liquidity measures by the Reserve Bank of India (RBI) on Friday.

The yield on 10-year benchmark government bond closed at 6.7194%, the highest level since March 4. The yield was up 6 basis points (bps) from the previous close of 6.66% on Friday. The market was closed on Monday on account of the Republic Day. So far in January, the yield has risen 14 bps.
