Government bonds (G-secs) are now listed on the exchanges

Sums up my perspective for the time being :slight_smile:

Given RBI and FM commentary, the cut cycle should commence soon.

Is the liquidity on shorter-dated G Secs better than longer-dated? Or vice-versa?

I don’t trade in gsec frequently, so not an expert here.
But generally 10 years and around that are most liquid. On shorter end 3-4 years also have good liquidity. If you go looking for a niche (25 years, 7 years etc.) they might or might not have enough liquidity on any given day.

Also remember, if you want to catch interest rate fall, you will have to buy longer ones, as shorter ones will give hardly any capital appreciation. So playing around 10 years would be safest.
