Mr. P. K. Singhal, Joint Managing Director, MCX added “While the existing gold contracts on the Exchange are already an established benchmark of price and quality in the Indian bullion markets, we seized the opportunity to further entrench our position in this market by launching the Gold Global contract. With its launch, MCX’s bullion basket offerings will include one more variant i.e. Gold Global (200 grams) apart from the existing Gold (1 Kg), Gold Mini (100 grams), Gold Guinea (8 grams), and Gold Petal (1 gram), thus enabling us to meet the needs of most stakeholders of the bullion value chain and this contract would facilitate hedging and marching a step towards making India’s gold market more competitive.”
