Indian government bonds advanced early Monday ​as surging foreign inflows and ​stable oil prices blunted geopolitical worries re-ignited by a fresh ​burst of U.S.-Iran strikes over the long weekend.

Diplomacy prevailed later in the day, with both sides agreeing to halt hostilities and ​resume peace talks.

Brent crude futures steadied in Asian trade, at $71.90 per barrel. The U.S. 10-year Treasury ​yields also traded rangebound at 4.3744%.
