MCX shares fall 7% despite profit more than doubling
In short
MCX shares fell 7% even though the company said its profit more than doubled. It reported consolidated net profit of ₹455 crore for the September quarter of FY27, helped by higher income and trading volumes.
The stock drop is the main market reaction, but the report does not say why investors sold the shares. It is still unclear whether the fall is only short term.
