The RBI proposes to reintroduce capital indexed bonds CIB with inflation linked returns to deepen the government securities market.

In December 1997,

6 pc CIB of 5-year tenure was initially introduced and now it has been proposed, in consultation with the government, to reintroduce a modified CIB with structured features of similar instructions prevalent internationally, RBI said in a discussion paper on CIB released here.
