You do not have permission to edit this page, for the following reasons:

This IP address has been blocked from editing Wikipedia.
This does not affect your ability to read Wikipedia pages.
Most people who see this message have done nothing wrong. Some kinds of blocks restrict editing from specific service providers or telecom companies in response to recent abuse or vandalism, and can sometimes affect other users who are unrelated to that abuse. Review the information below for assistance if you do not believe that you have done anything wrong.

The IP address or range 44.201.0.0/16 has been blocked (disabled) by ‪ST47‬ for the following reason(s):

The IP address that you are currently using has been blocked because it is believed to be a web host provider. To prevent abuse, web hosts may be blocked from editing Wikipedia.
You will not be able to edit Wikipedia using a web host provider because it hides your IP address, much like a proxy or VPN.
We recommend that you attempt to use another connection to edit. For example, if you use a proxy or VPN to connect to the internet, turn it off when editing Wikipedia. If you edit using a mobile connection, try using a Wi-Fi connection, and vice versa. If you are using a corporate internet connection, switch to a different Wi-Fi network. If you have a Wikipedia account, please log in.
If you do not have any other way to edit Wikipedia, you will need to request an IP block exemption.

How to appeal if you are confident that your connection does not use a web host's IP address:
If you are confident that you are not using a web host, you may appeal this block by adding the following text on your talk page: ((unblock|reason=Caught by a web host block but this host or IP is not a web host. My IP address is _______. Place any further information here. ~~~~)). You must fill in the blank with your IP address for this block to be investigated. Your IP address can be determined here. Alternatively, if you wish to keep your IP address private you can use the unblock ticket request system. There are several reasons you might be editing using the IP address of a web host (such as if you are using VPN software or a business network); please use this method of appeal only if you think your IP address is in fact not a web host.

Administrators: The IP block exemption user right should only be applied to allow users to edit using web host in exceptional circumstances, and they should usually be directed to the functionaries team via email. If you intend to give the IPBE user right, a CheckUser needs to take a look at the account. This can be requested most easily at SPI Quick Checkuser Requests. Unblocking an IP or IP range with this template is highly discouraged without at least contacting the blocking administrator.

This block will expire on 23:54, 31 July 2024.

Even when blocked, you will usually still be able to edit your user talk page, as well as email administrators and other editors.

For information on how to proceed, please read the FAQ for blocked users and the guideline on block appeals. The guide to appealing blocks may also be helpful.

Being the largest player in [[bullion]] trade, including [[retailing]], MMTC's share was 146 tonnes of [[gold]] out of the total import of 600 tonnes of the precious metal in 2008–09.

==History==
===Foundation===
The company was incorporated on 26 September 1963 at New Delhi. It falls under Commerce Ministry. The Corporation started functioning on 1 October. The main objectives of the company was export of [[mineral ores]] and import of essential [[metals]]. According to a latest news, MMTC is Asia's biggest gold and silver importer.<ref>[http://www.commodityonline.com/news/MMTC-Asia%E2%80%99s-biggest-gold-and-silver-importer-26215-3-1.html] ((Webarchive|url=https://web.archive.org/web/20100917091848/http://www.commodityonline.com/news/MMTC-Asia%E2%80%99s-biggest-gold-and-silver-importer-26215-3-1.html |date=17 September 2010 )) MMTC: Asia’s biggest gold and silver importer-NEW DELHI (Commodity Online)</ref>

===State Trading Corporation===
After [[Independence]] the government decided to authorize the [[mining]] of scarce [[mineral resources]] to the [[public sector]] rather than [[private sector]], although India's National Mineral Policy clearly states that it does not "preclude the State from securing the co-operation of private enterprise in the larger interest of the State or with a view to accelerating the pace of development"

Under the [[Constitution of India]], mineral rights and authority of mining laws remain vested with the state governments. On the other hand, [[Central government]] regulates the development of minerals under the Mines and Minerals (Regulation) Act of 1957.

The MMTC has its origins in the 1950s, when the [[Indian government]], with the interest of boosting agricultural and industrial development, determined to earn valuable foreign currency through the export of [[canalized]] mineral ores, which the country had huge deposits of. As a consequence of the government's decision to earn [[foreign currency]], the State Trading Corporation of India Ltd. was founded in 1956, as a wholly owned [[government]] [[subsidiary]], to handle the export and import of selected commodities.

===1963-2000===
The company had commenced its operation on 1 October 1963. With the rapid growth of the State Trading Corporation (STC) in its direct trading activities and in view of the importance given to the exports of mineral ores in the country's Five Year Plans, a decision was taken by the Government of India to split the STC and establish another corporation to deal exclusively with the trade in minerals and metals.

Japan and South Korea continued to be the major markets till the year of 1994. Then it made a foray into European market with the exports of one lakh tonnes of iron ore to [[Slovakia]] and [[Romania]]. Also in the same year, the company had commenced import of gold and silver against special [[import license]] for supply to the customers in the domestic area. Imports worth 20 metric tonnes of gold and silver worth 270 tonnes was made and the company opened new gold vaults at [[Hyderabad, India|Hyderabad]] and [[Vizag]] to offer its services to the customers in these areas. However, [[manganese ore]] exports remained depressed due to recession in the steel industry.

The wholly owned subsidiary MMTC Transnational Pte Ltd, [[Singapore]] was incorporated under the control of company in the year 1994 itself. During the year 1995, MMTC opened a duty-free jewellery show room at [[Chhatrapati Shivaji International Airport]] and a [[Memorandum of understanding]] was signed with the government of [[Orissa, India|Orissa]] for development of existing Gopalpur minor port into an all-weather, deep water and direct berthing port. In the same year, [[Board for Industrial & Financial Reconstruction]] (BIFR) had approved the scheme of merger-cum-amalgamation of Mica Trading Corporation of India Limited (MITCO) with MMTC. From the year 1996 onwards, the company started to import the [[Chemical]] items and [[Homeopathic]] Medicines. In 2003, MMTC's joint venture with the Orissa government, namely Neelchal Ispat Nigam Ltd., emerged as the second largest exporter of pig iron from India.<ref>((cite web |title=MMTC Ltd. |url=https://www.business-standard.com/company/mmtc-2292/information/company-history |website=Business Standard |access-date=17 September 2019 |archive-date=16 May 2018 |archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20180516211936/http://www.business-standard.com/company/mmtc-2292/information/company-history |url-status=live ))</ref>((citation needed|date=July 2018))

===2012===
