| Yields on government securities ended at record lows as investors bet the central bank will cut the bank rate by 25-50 basis points at its credit policy review next month. Trading sentiment was also lifted by hopes that inflation will come down after a cut in fuel prices last night by state-run refiners. The 10-year benchmark security yield ended at 5.9612 per cent, down from the previous close of 4.9908 per cent. Call rates closed at 4.25-4.50 per cent. |
