What Are Bond Yields and Why Are They Rising?
Bond yields represent the return an investor earns from holding government or corporate bonds. Yields and prices move inversely: when yields rise, the market value of bonds falls.
India’s 10-year benchmark government bond yield jumped 19 basis points in August 2025 to around 6.4651%, marking the largest monthly rise in three years Reuters, Sept 2025. To put it simply, 100 basis points make a percent, so a 19-basis-point jump means the yield increased by 0.19 percent in just one month.
