Bond boost ahead: RBI to reissue Rs 27,000 crore in securities, 2029 and 2054 maturities part of Centre's borrowing plan
In a move aimed at managing the Centre's market borrowings, the Reserve Bank of India (RBI) on Monday announced the reissue of government securities worth Rs 27,000 crore in two separate tranches. The auction is scheduled for June 20. According to a notification from the Finance Ministry, the RBI will reissue Rs 15,000 crore of the 6.75 per cent Government Security (GS) maturing in 2029, and Rs 12,000 crore of the 7.09 per cent GS maturing in 2054, ANI reported. In addition, the Centre has retained the option to accept up to Rs 2,000 crore in oversubscriptions across both securities. A reissue allows the RBI to sell additional units of an existing bond instead of launching a new one, helping maintain liquidity in the bond market. The proceeds from this auction will be part of the government's planned market borrowings. The RBI will conduct the auction via its E-Kuber system. Non-competitive bids will be accepted from 10:30 am to 11:00 am, followed by competitive bids from 10:30 am to 11:30 am. Results will be announced the same day on the RBI's website. Payment by successful bidders is due on June 23, the designated date of reissue. The interest on the bonds will be paid semi-annually, calculated from either the date of original issuance or the last coupon date. Both securities will be redeemed at face value on maturity. Earlier in June, the RBI had also reissued two dated government securities worth Rs 32,000 crore, comprising Rs 16,000 crore each of the 6.92 per cent GS maturing in November 2039 and the 6.90 per cent GS due in April 2065.

Mumbai (Maharashtra) [India], June 3 (ANI): The Reserve Bank of India (RBI) has announced the re-issue of two Government of India dated securities worth a total of Rs 32,000 crore. A 're-issue' means the RBI is selling more of a bond that is already available in the securities market. This move is part of the government's regular borrowing program. The two securities being re-issued are the 6.92 per cent Government Security (GS) maturing on November 18, 2039, and the 6.90 per cent GS maturing on April 15, 2065. Each of these bonds will be issued for Rs 16,000 crore. Additionally, the RBI has kept the option open to accept up to Rs 2,000 crore extra for each security, depending on market demand. According to the RBI's announcement on Monday, the auction will be held on Friday, June 6, 2025. The settlement, when investors make payments and receive the securities, will take place on Monday, June 9, 2025. The sale will be conducted through the RBI's Core Banking Solution system, known as e-Kuber. Both competitive and non-competitive bids can be submitted electronically on the day of the auction. Non-competitive bids will be accepted between 12:30 p.m. and 1:00 p.m., while competitive bids can be submitted between 12:30 p.m. and 1:30 p.m. The auction will follow a multiple price method, meaning successful bidders will receive the securities at the prices they quote. The central bank also stated that primary dealers can bid for underwriting a part of the issue through the Additional Competitive Underwriting (ACU) facility. These bids will be accepted from 10:30 a.m. to 11:00 a.m. on the same day. The securities will be available for 'When Issued' trading from June 3 to June 6, allowing early trading before the official issuance. Retail investors can also participate through the RBI Retail Direct platform. Moreover, 5 per cent of the notified amount is reserved for eligible individuals and institutions under the non-competitive bidding scheme. This auction is part of the RBI's regular debt management process and offers a secure investment opportunity to investors. The Indian economy grew by 6.5 per cent in real terms in the recently concluded financial year 2024-25, Ministry of Statistics and Programme Implementation's official data showed. The official GDP growth data for the January-March (Fourth quarter) also showed that the economy grew 7.4 per cent during the quarter. During the April-June, July-September, and October-December 2024 quarters, the country's economy, in real terms, observed a growth rate of 6.7 per cent, 5.6 per cent, and 6.2 per cent, respectively.
