Answer / savi gupta

It is a short term maturity promissory note issued by a
national govt.as a primary instrument for regulating money
supply and raising funds via open market operations. Issued
through the country's central bank, T-bills commonly pay no
explicit interest but are sold at a discount, their yield
being the difference between the purchase price and the
par-value (also called redemption value). T-bills are very
