Multi Commodity Exchange of India (MCX) shares rose over 5% to reach a record high of ₹7,820 on the BSE after the exchange obtained regulatory clearance to introduce electricity derivatives— marking a first for India and a significant milestone in the advancement of its energy trading scene.

The company indicated in a filing that the electricity derivatives contracts being launched by MCX will provide generators, distribution firms, and major consumers with the ability to protect against price fluctuations and manage price risks more efficiently, ultimately improving the effectiveness of the power market.

This groundbreaking initiative establishes MCX as a leader in innovation within commodity trading, while supporting India’s goal of promoting sustainable energy and advancing capital market development. It also represents a crucial advancement toward enhancing India’s energy markets and is in line with the wider vision of ‘Viksit Bharat.’

“The introduction of electricity derivatives marks a pivotal development in India’s commodities ecosystem. These contracts will offer participants a reliable, transparent, and regulated platform to manage power price risks, which are becoming more dynamic due to renewables and market-based reforms.

With India’s growing focus on renewable energy and open access power markets, electricity derivatives can serve as a vital bridge between the physical and financial sectors,” said Praveena Rai, MD & CEO, MCX.
