    Question

    Which two major features did the RBI introduce on its

    Retail Direct platform in August 2025 for Treasury Bills? 
    A SIP for Bonds & Auto-Redemption Correct Answer Incorrect Answer
    B SIP for T-Bills & Auto-Bidding Correct Answer Incorrect Answer
    C SIP for G-Secs & Auto-Trading Correct Answer Incorrect Answer
    D Auto-Bidding & Instant Redemption Correct Answer Incorrect Answer
    E SIP for Mutual Funds & Auto-Purchase Correct Answer Incorrect Answer

    Solution

    In August 2025, the Reserve Bank of India launched Systematic Investment Plan (SIP) for Treasury Bills and an auto-bidding facility on its Retail Direct platform. The SIP enables small, periodic investments in T-Bills (short-term debt instruments with maturities from 14 to 364 days), while auto-bidding automates participation in primary auctions. These measures aim to promote disciplined savings, improve liquidity, and encourage wider retail participation in government securities.
