Indian Bond Yields Steady as Traders Await Inflation Data

 Indian government bond yields remained relatively unchanged early on Monday as traders kept a close watch on upcoming inflation reports.

India's April inflation data is scheduled for release after market hours on Monday, while the U.S. inflation figures are expected on Wednesday.

The benchmark yield, IN071833G=CC, stood at 7.1231% as of 09:05 a.m. IST, compared to the previous day's close of 7.1276%.

"Around the 7.11%-7.12% range is expected for the benchmark until the inflation data is released," remarked a trader from a primary dealership.

Despite India's announcement of a second bond buyback worth 600 billion rupees ($7.19 billion) scheduled for Thursday, the market displayed minimal reaction.

This follows the central bank's acceptance of approximately 105 billion rupees of bonds against the initially notified 400 billion rupees in the first buyback in six years.

Meanwhile, the 10-year U.S. yield US10YT=RR remained steady around 4.50%
