For the 182-day bill, GH¢747.06 million were tendered.
A little over GH¢611 million were also tendered for the 364-day bill.
Meanwhile, interest rates continued to plumet on the yield curve.
The yield on the 91-day bill declined marginally by 9.0 basis points to 15.16%.
That of the 182-day also eased to 15.70% from the previous 16.03%.
The interest on the 364-day bill also dropped by 15 basis points to 16.80%.
