AI summary

Bombay High Court has dismissed a criminal writ filed by MCX in 2017. The writ sought registration of FIRs and police or EOW investigation against entities flagged in a 2003 to 2013 audit of vendor dealings. The court imposed a cost of Rs 5 lakh, payable to Bar Council of Maharashtra and Goa Advocate Academy. MCX clarified no violation was alleged against the company. Financial impact is limited to the Rs 5 lakh cost, and MCX may challenge the order.

Likely market impact

Minor loss; Rs 5 lakh cost is immaterial. MCX may appeal, and the dismissed writ was MCX own petition seeking action against vendors.
