The Multi Commodity Exchange (MCX) has announced that normal trading will resume at 1:25 PM after being halted for nearly four hours due to a major technical issue earlier in the day.
According to the latest exchange update, a special pre-opening session will be conducted between 1:20 PM and 1:24 PM, followed by the resumption of normal trading at 1:25 PM.
Trading on the country’s largest commodity derivatives exchange was delayed multiple times throughout the morning — initially from 9 AM to 9:30 AM, then to 9:45 AM, and later to 10 AM — before operations were suspended entirely as the exchange cited a technical problem.
Earlier in the day, MCX confirmed that trading would commence from its Disaster Recovery (DR) site, but the start time was not immediately specified. The issue led to a rare prolonged disruption across commodity markets.
Trading has now officially resumed after the exchange completed checks from the DR platform.
