New Delhi may raise its concerns with Bloomberg over the latter’s decision to defer Indian government securities in its flagship Global Aggregate Bond Index, despite a series of steps taken recently to deepen the capital market, and the opening up of G-secs fully to foreign investors along with liberal tax sops. “We opened up the whole (G-sec) spectrum from 1 year to 40 years maturity and gave tax relief,” an official said, calling the liberalisation a “holy grail.” The person added that the index service provider’s call could potentially delay India’s greater access to long-term passive foreign funds in infrastructure and key manufacturing sectors, and stressed that an early inclusion of India in the index would be pursued with Bloomberg.
