2. In the context of the Interest Rate Futures (Reserve Bank) Directions, 2013 dated December 5, 2013 issued by the Reserve Bank of India, it is clarified that the participation of commercial banks in IRF would be subject to the guidelines issued videcircular DBOD.BP.BC.56/21.04.157/2008-09 dated October 13, 2008 and updated vide circular DBOD.BP.BC 34/21.04.157/2009-10 dated August 28, 2009 i.e. banks are permitted to participate in IRF both for the purpose of hedging the risk in the underlying investment portfolio and also to take trading position.
