The rating upgrade was a relief to the bond market as it has been witnessing a huge selloff since the last RBI policy, said market participants.

The yield on the 10-year benchmark bond fell 8 basis points (bps) to close at 6.40% on Thursday, the biggest fall in two months. The yields ended at 6.48% on Wednesday. The yields fell as much as 10 bps to 6.38% during the day.
