The RBI now permits individuals to invest in Treasury bills via SIPs on its retail direct platform, aiming to increase retail participation in the bond market. While one-year bank FDs offer higher returns, T-bills outperform in shorter tenures like 91-day and 182-day maturities. This initiative allows investments starting from Rs 10,000 with auto-bidding and reinvestment options.
