Bonds are seen under pressure after India's central bank raised interest rates for the first time in over four years on Wednesday and probably kept the door open for another hike.
The six-member Monetary Policy Committee voted unanimously to increase the repurchase rate to 6.25 percent from 6 percent on Wednesday, as predicted by 14 of 44 economists in a Bloomberg survey.
The RBI kept its policy stance neutral, which suggested the move was probably a “dovish hike,” according to economists at Nomura Holdings Inc. With this, the RBI has joined peers in Indonesia, Turkey and Argentina in raising rates as policy tightening in the U.S. and a stronger dollar rattle broader emerging markets. The 10-year bond yield rose eight basis points on Wednesday to end at 7.92 percent.
Meanwhile, the rupee is seen drawing strength from the central bank's decision to raise rates as well as improved risk appetite globally. The dollar was trading slightly weaker overseas which should see the rupee open higher after ending at 66.96 per dollar on Wednesday. The implied opening from forwards suggests spot will start trading on Thursday around 66.9203.
