Indian government bond yields dipped in early trading on Friday, tracking US yields after the Federal Reserve eased interest rates as expected and did not sound hawkish.
The benchmark 10-year yield was at 6.7825 per cent as of 09:45 a.m. IST, compared with Thursday's close of 6.7931 per cent.
There is a bit of respite as fears were overblown that Fed will change its language and factor in some hawkishness, but that has not transpired, a trader with a primary dealership said.
"Even supply is not very high, so there is no stress from that angle as well," the trader said.
New Delhi will raise Rs 22,000 crore ($2.61 billion)through sale of bonds, which includes three-year and 40-year bonds.
"No supply in either 10-year or 15-year bucket today will also help," the trader said.
