The reason for the difference in timing of both the exchanges is the commodity base. Agricultural produce like gram, soybean are traded on NCDEX. Their market ends in the evening along with the mandis. In contrast, international commodities like gold, silver, crude oil and copper are traded on MCX. The rates of these foreign markets like American markets NYMEX and COMEX change the most in the evening and night according to Indian time. That is why MCX is kept open till 11:30 pm to give investors an opportunity to take advantage of global price fluctuations.
