MCX reported a stellar FY26 with consolidated revenue more than doubling to ₹232 crore, driven by a 2.5x increase in average daily turnover across futures and options. PAT crossed ₹1,300 crore and EBITDA reached ₹1,774 crore, reflecting scale benefits and cost discipline. Growth was led by bullion (up 4x) and energy, with structural tailwinds from rising retail participation, digital broker onboarding, and product innovation. Management expects a strong FY27 but flagged potential headwinds from RBI lending norms impacting prop traders and competitive threats from equity exchanges entering commodities. Key risks include operational risk from high volatility and regulatory changes.
