10-year bond yield rises 14 bps since 25-bp rate cut
Business Standard
|December 11, 2025
The yield on the 10-year benchmark government bond has hardened 14 basis points (bps) since the Reserve Bank of India’s (RBI's) 25-bp policy repo rate cut on Friday.
The latest repo rate cut is seen as the last reduction in this cycle.
On Wednesday, 10-year bond yield inched up 4 bps and breached the psychologically crucial 6.60 percent mark to settle at 6.63 per cent as foreign investors unwound their positions in both government securities and the overnight indexed swap market, dealers said.
Yields on the 5-year and the 15-year sovereign paper hardened 15 bps each this week.
The 25 bps policy repo rate cut by the RBI's Monetary Policy Committee (MPC) is widely seen as the last in this cycle, which has weighed on sentiment, said dealers.
The rate-setting panel of the central bank cut the policy repo rate by 25 bps to 5.25 per cent on Friday, lowest in over three years.
The repo rate has been cut a total of 125 bps since February.
