A fortnight ago, MCX promoter Jignesh Shah and Joseph Massey were forced to opt out from the board of the stock exchange arm of the FTIL, MCX-SX. Massey was an MD on the stock exchange. MCX MD Shreekant Javalgekar had also resigned last week.
The market was anticipating Shah's resignation from MCX board as well against the backdrop of the payment crisis of Rs 5,600 crore (Rs 56 billion) in the group company, National Spot Exchange.
