The inter-bank call money rate slightly eased Tuesday, but moved above the bank rate of 5.00 per cent. The call rate mainly ranged between 6.15 per cent and 13.25 per cent against the previous day's range between 6.50 per cent and 13.50 per cent. Most of the deals were settled at rates between 7.00 per cent and 8.00 per cent, fund managers added. The market experienced little pressure on liquidity despite withdrawal of cash from the market through reverse repurchase agreement (repo) auction.
