AI summary

MCX has issued a formal clarification under SEBI Listing Regulations stating that news aired by certain media channels regarding 'weekly expiry' and related matters is baseless and factually inaccurate. The company highlighted that such incorrect reporting has an adverse impact on its stakeholders. The clarification has also been published on MCX's official website for public reference. No specific details of the original news reports were disclosed in this filing.

Likely market impact

This is a defensive communication to address potentially market-moving rumors. The context suggests the denied news may relate to SEBI's stance on weekly expiry of index derivatives, a key revenue driver for exchanges. A clear denial could provide short-term relief to the stock, though investors should monitor further official developments from SEBI on weekly expiries.
