Significantly, nickel witnessed the highest-ever delivery of 999 tonnes during this August cycle.

MCX has also started the process of empanelment of domestic refined lead brands to encourage more domestic consumers and refiners to participate on the exchange. For this purpose, the exchange has issued eligibility criteria for domestically refined lead brands to get registered for the MCX good delivery. Currently, only London Metal Exchange-approved brands are accepted.

MCX, the leading commodity bourse, largely offers futures trading in nonagricultural commodities. The exchange contributes maximum business to the total turnover of the commodity futures market.
