The bid-to-cover ratio, which measures investor interest, edged slightly lower to 2.71 compared with 2.75 in the previous auction. Overall, the report stated that the cut-off yield for the entire auction rose sharply by 18 basis points to 7.26 per cent. This reflects sustained investor caution, as SDL auctions have now shown tepid demand for seven consecutive weeks.

For this week, nine states are scheduled to raise Rs 176 billion, which is slightly lower than the auction calendar amount of Rs 185 billion. Meanwhile, the SDL spread over G-secs edged up by about one basis point to 45 basis points, highlighting the weak demand scenario.

The auction drew a bid-to-cover ratio of 2.91, which was higher than the long-term average of 2.8. Demand trends, however, were mixed across maturities. The cut-off price for the 5-year tenor was marginally lower than market expectations, pointing towards weak appetite. Most of the bids came from domestic banks and mutual funds.

Insurance firms and pension funds emerged as the key buyers for the longer tenor bonds. Looking ahead, the report outlined that the Centre is expected to raise Rs 360 billion in the upcoming G-sec auction this week.
