Indian overnight cash rates ended unchanged as demand from banks eased towards the end of the two-week reporting period on Friday.
The three-day cash rate closed at unchanged at 8.50/8.60 percent. It touched a high of 9.20 percent in the day.
"Demand was pretty strong today, but going forward, we expect a slight improvement in the liquidity situation because of government spending," a trader with a private bank said.
Banks borrowed a lower 1.15 trillion rupees ($21.7 billion) from the RBI's liquidity adjustment facility compared with 1.17 trillion rupees on Thursday.
Dealers said month-end spending by the government towards payroll and subsidies is expected to improve the liquidity condition and keep a lid on the cash rates in coming days.

In the collateralised borrowing and lending obligation (CBLO) market, the volume was 194.85 billion rupees, compared with a total of 407.38 billion rupees in the previous session.
The weighted average rate in the call money market was at 8.91 percent, a touch lower than 8.95 percent on Thursday. In the CBLO market, the average rate fell to 6.99 percent from 7.72 percent.
