India’s proposed mineral exchange is expected to begin operations by FY28, a Mines Ministry official says. The outlet reports that planning and preparation are ongoing toward a launch in the next fiscal year timeframe.
The Economic Times frames the schedule as a potential start “next fiscal,” indicating an immediate policy push to operationalize the exchange soon. Swarajya, citing the Mines Ministry official, likewise points to a FY28 timeline, suggesting that while dates are being discussed publicly, the ministry’s target remains oriented toward FY28 rather than a near-term rollout. Both outlets treat the exchange as part of efforts to improve the market structure for mineral transactions.
While coverage is limited here to timelines, the shared focus is the intended launch date and the government’s involvement. Differences appear primarily in how soon each outlet suggests the exchange could start, but both attribute the schedule to ministry-level expectations and broader implementation progress.
