MCX launches Monthly Options on iCOMDEX Bullion Index (Gold & Silver) ⭐

Hey Traders,

The Multi-Commodity Exchange of India (MCX) has launched monthly Options contracts on the MCX iCOMDEX Bullion Index (MCX BULLDEX) from 27 October 2025.

What is the MCX BULLDEX Index:

MCX BULLDEX represents India’s precious metals market, combining Gold and Silver futures into a single index.

Why this matters:

The new monthly Options will offer you a diversified and efficient way to manage risk or take positions in the bullion segment. Here’s how:

  • Diversified exposure to both Gold & Silver in one contract
  • Cost-effective hedging and trading opportunities
  • Better transparency and liquidity in India’s bullion markets


Each launch introduces three active contracts - near, mid, and far month. When the near-month contract expires, MCX lists a new one to ensure continuous trading availability.

Key Highlights

  • Both BULLDEX Futures and Options expire on the same day, simplifying trade and hedge management

  • No physical delivery, settlements happen in cash

  • Combines Gold and Silver futures into one index for simplified trading and tracking

  • Lot size, margins, and trading hours are the same as other MCX index contracts
