Bond prices went up by over Re 1 after the Reserve Bank of India cut the CRR by an further 100 basis points. Bond yields closed about 20 basis points lower, which means Rs 1.2 higher. The cancelling of the Rs 10,000-crore auction of Government securities also aided the market as it would ease the liquidity in the system. However, bond prices came off the day''s high due to profit taking, towards the end of trade, said a bond dealer with a private bank.
