Commodity exchange MCX (Multi Commodity Exchange of India) on October 28 announced a delay in the start of trading due to a technical issue, with operations now scheduled to begin at 10:30 AM. The exchange confirmed that trading will commence from its Disaster Recovery (DR) platform.
In an update on its website, MCX stated, “Members are requested to note that trading will start at 10:30 AM due to a technical issue. Trading will start from DR. Inconvenience is regretted.”
However, shortly after, brokerage firm Zerodha reported that the MCX opening has been further delayed, and a revised time has not yet been confirmed.
Zerodha posted on X (formerly Twitter): “There is a further delay in MCX opening. The revised time is not yet confirmed. We’ll share an update once it’s available.”
Earlier in the morning, MCX had initially announced a 9:30 AM start time following the same technical issue but later postponed it again.
As of 10 AM, MCX shares were trading 0.8% lower at ₹9,231 apiece on the BSE.
