India’s bond market is experiencing increased volatility as geopolitical tensions and surging crude prices push yields higher. REC Limited and NABARD have withdrawn bond sales worth nearly ₹19,000 cr due to investors demanding higher yields amid rising risk concerns. The benchmark 10-year government bond yield has climbed to 6.68–6.69%, reflecting inflation fears and currency weakness.
Investors are cautious as volatility in global energy markets raises expectations of imported inflation, potentially limiting the Reserve Bank of India's interest rate cuts. Bond markets are reacting sharply to these geopolitical developments and macroeconomic uncertainty.
