Both National Spot Exchange Ltd (NSEL) and MCX are promoted by the Jignesh Shah-headed Financial Technologies India Ltd (FTIL).
NSEL has 60.88 per cent equity in IBMA. NSEL has to pay Rs 1,170.09 crore to IBMA, which in turn has to repay to its several clients, including Sahara Q Shop Unique Products Range Ltd.
FMC had also said that the total amount which NSEL owes should be proportionately distributed to various members including IBMA.
NSEL is facing the problem of settling Rs 5,600 crore dues after it suspended trade on July 31, following the government direction in the wake of violation of certain rules by the exchange.
