Introduction

The Middle Office for public debt management was set up in September 2008, in Department of

Economic Affairs, Ministry of Finance, Government of India. With the objective of enhancing

transparency of debt management operations, Middle Office, DEA began publishing on its

website a quarterly report, titled “Public Debt Management - Quarterly Report” from the first

quarter of the fiscal year 2010-11. The previous reports are available on the website of Ministry

of Finance (http://finmin.nic.in/reports/Public_Debt_Management.asp). This report pertains to

the Q1 of the fiscal year 2017-18, viz., April-June 2017 (Q1 FY 18).

The report gives an account of the public debt management and cash management operations

during the quarter, and attempts a rationale for major activities. The report also tries to provide

detailed information on various aspects of debt management.

While all attempts have been made to provide authentic and accurate information, it is possible

that some errors might have crept in inadvertently. Readers may inform us of such errors, as

indeed their valuable suggestions, at [email protected].

Section 1 – Macroeconomic Developments

1.1 As per Central Statistics Organization (CSO) estimates, India’s real GDP growth in Q4 (Jan –

March) FY 17 (at constant price 2011-12) stood at 6.1 per cent, as against 7.9 per cent growth in

Q 4 of FY 16. Correspondingly, Gross Value Addition (GVA) growth stood at 5.6 per cent in Q4 of

FY 17 as against 8.7 per cent in Q4 of FY 16. Of the sectors, agriculture output grew by 5.2 per

cent, manufacturing grew by 5.3 per cent, mining increased by 6.4 per cent and construction

grew by (-) 3.7 per cent. The growth in GDP during 2016-17 (provisional estimate) is estimated to

be 7.1 per cent, which is lower than the growth rate of 8.0 per cent (revised on May 31, 2017) in

2015-16 (Chart 1).

1.2 Headline CPI retail inflation in June 2017 eased to record low of 1.54 per cent compared to

2.18 per cent in the May 2017, led by a decline in prices of food articles, fuel and housing.

Meanwhile, Core CPI declined to 3.85 per cent in June 2017 as compared to 4.25 per cent in May

2017, declining for the third straight month. Food inflation, which accounts for about 46 per cent

of the overall CPI basket, decelerated for the second straight month to 1.17 per cent in June

2017 compared to a decline of 0.22 per cent in May and a growth of 7.46 per cent in June 2016.

The fall was led mainly by declining prices of cereals, vegetables and pulses. Prices of vegetables,

especially tomato, potato and onions shot up as several parts of country witnessed a supply

slump as the crops were destroyed due to heavy monsoons. Costs of fuel dropped to a four-

month low of 4.54 per cent in June from 5.46 per cent in April. The housing component with a

weight of 10.07 per cent in the CPI basket slumped to 4.70 per cent in June, its lowest level since

Aug 2015. Average CPI inflation rate during Q 1 FY 18 was significantly lower at 2.2 per cent as

Page 6: Public Debt Management...Section 2– Debt Management - Primary Market Operations A. Government Finances 2.1 The fiscal deficit of the Central Government in budget estimates (BE) 2017-18

3

compared with 3.6 per cent during Q4 of FY 17 and 5.7 per cent during Q 1 of FY 17. WPI

inflation (base year 2011-12) eased to its lowest level in eleven months as costs of food articles

and fuel declined. WPI slipped to 0.90 per cent in June compared to 2.17 per cent in May and -

0.09 per cent in the year ago period (Chart 2).

1.3 Industrial growth, as measured by index of industrial production (IIP) [base year 2011-12]

registered 1.7 per cent increase in May 2017, moderating from 2.8 per cent growth observed in

Apr 2017. As per sectoral classification, mining (weight of 14.4 per cent) saw a y-o-y moderation

by -0.9 per cent, manufacturing (weight of 77.6 per cent) grew by 1.2 per cent and electricity

(weight of 7.99 per cent) grew by 8.7 per cent in May 2017. On the cumulative basis, industrial

growth in April-May 2017 registered a growth of 2.3% as compared to 7.3% a year ago (Chart 3)

reflecting a broad-based loss of momentum in manufacturing. Excess inventories of coal and

near stagnant output of crude oil and refinery products combined led to slow down in mining

activity. For electricity generation, lack of demand seems to remain a binding constraint. In

terms of uses, output of consumer non-durables accelerated underlining the resilience of rural

demand. There was however contraction in consumer durables – indicative of still sluggish urban

demand – and in capital goods. CSO revises the base year of the macroeconomic indicators, as a

regular exercise, to capture structural changes in the economy and improve the quality and

representativeness of the indices. In this direction, the base year of the all-India Index of

Industrial Production (IIP) has also been revised from 2004-05 to 2011-12 to not only reflect the

changes in the industrial sector but to also align it with the base year of other macroeconomic

indicators like the gross domestic product (GDP), wholesale price index (WPI).

1.4 India’s exports, in dollar terms, valued at USD 23.6 billion in June 2017 continue to exhibit

positive growth for the last ten months (y-o-y) at 4.4 per cent over June 2016 (valued at USD

22.6 billion). However, merchandise export growth weakened in May and June 2017 from the

April peak as the value of shipments across commodity groups either slowed or declined. During

June 2017, major commodity groups of exports that showed positive growth were Engineering

Goods (14.78 per cent), Petroleum Products (3.60 per cent), Organic & Inorganic Chemicals

(13.20 per cent), Rice (27.29 per cent) and Marine Products (24.27 per cent). Import growth

remained in double digits in June 2017, primarily due to surge in oil imports and stockpiling of

gold imports ahead of the implementation of the GST. Imports of coal, electronic goods, pearls

and precious stones, vegetable oils and machinery also accelerated. POL imports (valued at USD

8.1 billion) were 12.0 per cent higher in June 2017 as compared to June 2016 (USD 7.3 billion)

despite the global Brent prices ($/bbl) decreasing by 3.28 per cent in June 2017 vis-à-vis June

2016, as per World Bank commodity price data. As import growth continued to outpace export

growth, the trade deficit at US$ 40.1 billion in Q1 was more than double of its level a year ago

(Chart 4).

1.5 Net Foreign Direct Investment doubled in April-May 2017 over its level a year ago,

flowing mainly into manufacturing, retail and wholesale trade and business services. Foreign

portfolio investors made net purchases of US$ 15.2 billion in domestic debt and equity markets

so far (up to July 31), remaining bullish on the outlook for the Indian economy. The level of

foreign exchange reserves was US$ 392.9 billion as on July 28, 2017, higher by US$ 23 billion

than that at end-March 2017. Rupee mostly exhibited an appreciating trend during the quarter

driven by positive macroeconomic factors such as low inflation, ample liquidity, etc. As

compared with previous quarter closing of INR at `64.84 per USD on March 31, 2017, INR traded

in range of `64.00-65.04 per USD during the quarter and closed at level of `64.74 per USD on

June 30, 2017. The average INR exchange rate was `64.46 per USD during the Q1 of FY 2018 as

compared with `67.00 per USD during Q4 quarter of FY 2017. (Chart 5).

Section 2– Debt Management - Primary Market Operations

A. Government Finances 2.1 The fiscal deficit of the Central Government in budget estimates (BE) 2017-18 (FY 18) was

placed at ` 5,46,532 crore (3.2 per cent of GDP) as against ` 5,34,274 crore (3.5 per cent of

GDP) in the revised estimates (RE) for 2016-17. The deficit was funded from different sources

Section 3 – Cash Management

3.1 Government’s cash account is maintained with RBI. The cash-flow mismatches of the

Government are largely managed through issuance of Treasury Bills, access to the Ways and

Means Advances (WMA) facility from the Reserve Bank and issuance of Cash Management Bills

when in deficit and through auctions of its cash balance in market (through RBI) and buybacks of

securities from market, when in surplus. The limits for Ways and Means Advances (WMA) for the

first quarter of the Financial Year 2017-18 (April 2017-June 2017) was fixed at ` 60,000 crore.

3.2 Liquidity conditions in the economy remained comfortable and continue to be in surplus

mode during the quarter post the de-monetisation (Chart 6). The liquidity surplus (-), (net

mobilisation by RBI under Liquidity Adjustment Facility (LAF)) including MSF during the quarter,

was at an average of ` 4,38,328 crore in April 2017, decreasing to an average surplus of `

4,32,903 crore in May 2017 and further decreasing in June 2017 to an average surplus of `

4,05,011 crore, reflecting the decreasing trend. The average net mobilisation under LAF during

Q1 of FY 17-18 was at ` 4,24,768 crore as against surplus of ` 5,89,219 crore in the previous

quarter (Q4 of FY 16-17). On policy front, in the first Bi-Monthly monetary Policy statement on

April 6, 2017, Monetary Policy Committee (MPC) kept the Repo rate unchanged at 6.25 per cent,

however narrowed the LAF Corridor to 25 bps, increasing the Reverse Repo rate to 6.0 per cent.

In the second Bi-monthly Monetary policy statement on June 7, 2012, MPC kept the Repo rate

unchanged at 6.25%. However, it lowered the SLR requirement from 20.5 % to 20.0 % effective

from June 24, 2017.

3.3 Due to front loading of expenditure by the Ministries and heavy repayment of G-secs falling during

the quarter, combined with low cash inflows generally seen during the first half of the year, the cash

position of the Government during Q1 of FY17 was somewhat stressed and it took recourse to WMA from

RBI to tide over this temporary phase. Overdraft was also availed briefly during the quarter. Cash

Management Bills of varying durations amounting to ` 1,30,000 crore were issued during the quarter to

Page 13: Public Debt Management...Section 2– Debt Management - Primary Market Operations A. Government Finances 2.1 The fiscal deficit of the Central Government in budget estimates (BE) 2017-18

augment the cash position of the Govt with CMBs of ` 40,000 crore redeemed during the quarter

itself. CMBs have generic character of Treasury Bills. The net amount of Treasury Bills issued through

competitive route during the quarter was ` 26,012 crore. The net amount of Treasury Bills issued through

non-competitive route during the quarter was ` 65,501.99 crore. Overall, the net amount mobilised

through Treasury Bills (under competitive and non-competitive routes) during Q1 of FY17 increased

to ` 91,513.99 crore. Details of treasury bills issued and matured in Q1 of FY18 are given in Table 5.

provisionally increased to ` 63,35,875 crore at end-June 2017 from ` 61,13,109 crore at end-

March 2017 (Table 6). This represented a quarter-on-quarter (QoQ) increase of 3.6 per cent

(provisional) in Q1 FY 18 as compared to a decrease of 1.15 per cent in the previous quarter (Q4

of FY 17). Internal debt constituted 93.0 per cent of Public Debt at the end of quarter, as against

92.7 per cent in the previous quarter. Marketable securities (consisting of Rupee denominated

dated securities and Treasury Bills) accounted for 83.2 per cent of total Public Debt at end-June

2017. The outstanding internal debt of the Government at ` 58,92,637 crore constituted 37.8

per cent of GDP at end-June 2017 as compared with 37.3 per cent at end-March 2017.

Maturity Pattern for Outstanding Government Debt Stock

4.2 The weighted average yield of primary issuance during Q1 of 2017-18 increased to 7.01 per

cent from 6.75 per cent in the previous quarter, indicating rise in yields in the market. The

weighted average maturity of outstanding stock of dated securities as at end-June 2017

increased marginally to 10.67 years from 10.65 years as at end March 2017. However, over the

same period, the weighted average coupon of outstanding stock decreased to 7.95 per cent from

7.99 per cent (Table 7).

4.3 The proportion of debt (dated securities) maturing in less than one year increased to 5.3 per

cent at end-June 2017 from 3.3 per cent a quarter ago. However, proportion of debt maturing

within 1-5 years was marginally lower at 21.3 per cent as against 21.7 per cent at end-March

2017. Accordingly, debt maturing in next five years increased to 26.6 per cent at the end of Q1

of FY 18 from 25.0 per cent of outstanding stock at the end of previous quarter. However, the

proportion of outstanding debt maturing in less than 10 years was lower at 57.3 per cent as

against 58.3 per cent a quarter ago, with corresponding decrease in share in proportion of debt

maturing in more than 10 years. The change in composition of debt in terms of various maturity

buckets reflects the maturity structure of securities issued during Q1 of FY18 as well as the

maturity dynamics of outstanding securities. Overall, 26.6 per cent of outstanding stock has a

residual maturity of up to 5 years at end-June 2017, which implies that over the next five years,

on an average, 5.3 per cent of outstanding stock needs to be repaid every year (Table 8). Thus,

the rollover risk in the debt portfolio continues to be low. A switch operation of GoI securities

was conducted on June 12, 2017 with a scheduled commercial bank wherein securities worth

face value ₹ 17,016 crore maturing in first-half of 2017-18 were switched to longer tenor

securities maturing in 2024-25 and 2029-30 at FIMMDA/ Market prices. The implementation of

budgeted buy back/ switches in coming period is expected to reduce roll over risk further.

Holding Pattern

4.4 The holding pattern of Government securities is available with a lag of a quarter; the latest

data are available for end-March 2017 (Table 9 and Chart 7). Banks (including banks that are

primary dealers) continue to dominate as the major investor category, with their share in holding

of Government securities slightly decreasing to 40.5 per cent at end-Mar 2017 from 40.9 per

cent as at end-Dec 2016. Among the long-term investors, the share of insurance companies and

provident funds increased marginally during the quarter to 22.9 per cent and 6.3 per,

respectively from 22.5 per cent and 6.2 per cent, respectively at end-Dec 2016. The share of FPIs

also increased to 3.5 per cent at end-Mar 2017 from 3.1 per cent a quarter ago. Share of Mutual

Funds decreased to 1.49 per cent at end-Mar 2017 from 1.96 per cent a quarter ago. Proportion

of securities held by the Reserve Bank at end-March 2017 increased marginally to 14.7 per cent

(from 14.6 per cent a quarter ago) reflecting the outcome of liquidity management operations.

Section 5 – Secondary Market

A. Government security yields

5.1 G-Sec yields witnessed a volatile trend during the quarter but yields softened at the end of

quarter. Chart 8 depicts the movement in Government bond yields (10-year benchmark rates)

during the Apr-June 2017 quarter (Q1 FY 17-18). Yields hardened during Apr 2017 due to factors

like cautious moods ahead of 1st Bi-monthly monetary policy of RBI for 2017-18 which

maintained a hawkish stance wherein RBI decided to maintain the status quo on its key policy

rates against some expectations of a rate cut, RBI narrowed the key policy rate corridor around

the Repo rate to ±25bps [± 50bps earlier] and accordingly raising the Reverse Repo rate to 6.00%

from earlier rate of 5.75%. Expectation of issuance of a new 10 year benchmark (as the current

paper neared the level generally not issued beyond) led the traders to trim their holdings to

make room for new paper added to hardening wave to some extent. Incidences of devolvement

of G-Secs on PDs, issuance of T-Bills of near 1 year term under MSS, wave of debt waivers by few

States which most likely will lead to higher State borrowing, OMO sales by RBI, cut in SLR from

20.50% to 20% lowering the bond holding requirement for banks, geo-political issues etc. also

contributed to the hardening of the yields.

However, yield showed a falling trend subsequently from May 2017 onwards due to

announcement of a buoyant monsoon, sharp fall in both WPI (Apr 3.85%, 2.17% in May and

0.90% in June) and CPI (2.99%, 2.18% and 1.54% for Apr, May and June respectively)

strengthening hopes of rate cut by RBI in near future, ample liquidity, dovish stance by RBI in

June policy review, increase in FPI limits by RBI, reduction in inflation projections by RBI,

Ten year benchmark yield closed at 6.51% on June 30, 2017 as against 6.66% on March 31, 2017

after trading between 6.43% and 6.99% during the quarter.

5.2 G-Sec yields at the end of June 2017 were broadly lower across the yield curve compared

to end-March 2017 mainly due to the reasons detailed in para 5.1 above. The 1 yr-10 yr spread

fell to 18 bps at the end of March 2017 from 74 bps at the end of March 2017 partly due to new

benchmark while 10yr-30yr spread widened to 56 bps from 32 bps over the same period.

Overall, 1yr-30yr spread at end of Q1 of FY17-18 narrowed to 74 bps compared to 106 bps at

the end of the Q4 (Chart 9).

5.3 The surplus liquidity in the system, which was hovering over 4 lakh crore in March

quarter fell to about 3.00 lakh crore during Apr-June 2017. Additionally, issuance of T-Bill by RBI

under MSS added pressure in the market. As the G-Secs yields softened, entities like Mutual

Funds and NBFCs which were investing heavily in T-Bills in March quarters shifted their strategy

to buying duration (dated securities) and consequently demand for T-Bills fell leading to rise in

their yield. The 91, 182 and 364 day yields hardened by 51, 44 and 55 bps respectively. The

spread between 1 month yield and 12 months yield, however, fell to 10 bps on June 30, 2017

compared to 72 bps on March 31, 2017. The spread between 1 month yield and 3 months yield

also fell to 3 bps in June 2017 compared to a rise of 39 bps in March 2017. The spread between

3 month and 6 month yields also fell to 10 bps on June 30, 2017 from 10 bps on March 31, 2017.

B. Trading Pattern for domestic securities

5.4 The total outright volume of G-Secs traded during Q1 of FY17-18 was ` 31.12 lakh crore, an

increase of 2.65% compared to volume of ` 30.32 lakh crore during Q4 of previous FY (Table 10).

The G-Secs trading saw the increase of 3.57% while T-Bills and SDLs trading activity fell by 2.01%

and 3.55% respectively during the quarter. The annualised outright turnover ratio1 for Central

Government dated securities (G-Secs) for Q1 of FY17-18 improved to 4.48 from 4.35 during Q4

of FY16-17. The annualised total turnover ratio2 including the repo transactions, for Q1 of FY 17-

18, however, fell to 11.83 from 12.17 during Q4 of FY16-17.

5.5 Central Government dated securities continued to account for a dominant portion of

total trading volumes (Chart 11a and 11b). However, their share increased during the quarter to

85.62% of total outright volumes as compared to 84.85% in Q4 of FY 16-17. In Repo market also,

Central Government securities accounted for majority of transactions but their share fell to

72.37% of the total repo volumes during Q1 of FY17-18 as compared to 75.23% in Q4 of FY16-17.

5.6 The top 10 traded securities accounted for 66.55% of the total outright transaction volume

during the Q1 compared to 71.17% during Q4 of FY16-17, reflecting that a large number of

outstanding securities are traded now compared to a few earlier, thus broadening the market.

However, the share of top three traded securities increased to 58.92% during the quarter from

48.09% during Q4 of FY16-17 (Table 11).

5.8 The maturity distribution of Government securities transactions in the secondary market

is represented in Chart 12a and 12b for Q1 of 2017-18 and Q4 of 2016-17 respectively. Trading

increased in short (3-7 years) and longer end of bond market (> 10 year) during the quarter vis-à-

vis previous quarter. Share of ‘10 years and above’ maturity bucket saw a significant rise in share

of trading volumes during Q1 of FY 17-18 (40.07% vs. 27.93% in Q4 of FY16-17). The Share of ‘7-

10 years’ maturity range, however, fell to 42.81%, from 54.67% in previous quarter. The below 3

years maturity bracket continued to have lowest share of trading volume 1.36% in Q1 of FY 18

vs. 3.57% in Q4 of previous year.
