Templeton Buys $1.2 Billion India Government Bonds

New York City‘s Franklin Templeton Investments bought about $1.2 billion of Indian government bonds in two days end March. The purchases, made through broker JPMorgan Chase & Co, were largely for tenures maturing in 2021-2023.

Since March 11, when Prime Minister Narendra Modi’s party won an election in the state of Uttar Pradesh in the north, foreign funds have been pouring into India, driving stocks to a record high and pushing up bond prices, reports Mint.

“The outcome of state elections, a dovish hike by the Federal Reserve and relatively attractive valuations have been the key drivers of inflows,” said Nagaraj Kulkarni, a senior rates strategist at Standard Chartered Plc in Singapore.
