Issuance Calendar for Marketable Dated Securities for Jan-March 2011-12

It may be recalled that keeping in view the shortfall in other financing items, it was earlier decided to increase the Government market borrowings through dated securities provided in the Union Budget 2011-12 by Rs. 52,872 crore during the second half of 2011-12. On a review of the Government’s overall financing requirements, it has been decided, in consultation with the Reserve Bank of India, to modify the indicative calendar for issuance of Government dated securities during the second half of 2011-12, released on September 29, 2011, for the remaining period of 2011-12, i.e. January-March 2012. With this modification, the gross market borrowing through dated securities during 2011-12 will further increase by Rs.40,000 crore over the already announced increase of Rs.52,872 crore. Accordingly, the revised indicative calendar for issuance of Government dated securities for January-March 2012 will be as under:
