<h1>India and RBI Release Security Issuance Calendar for Oct 2018-Mar 2019 to Boost Investment and Transparency.</h1> The Government of India, in collaboration with the Reserve Bank of India, released an issuance calendar for dated securities from October 2018 to March 2019, aiming to aid investment planning and enhance market transparency. The calendar outlines weekly auctions with amounts ranging from Rs. 11,000 crore to Rs. 12,000 crore, distributed across various maturity periods from 1 to over 20 years. A non-competitive bidding scheme reserves 5% for retail investors. The government retains flexibility to modify the calendar based on market conditions and may use a green-shoe option to retain additional subscriptions up to Rs. 1,000 crore. Changes will be communicated through press releases.
