India’s emergence as a global technology powerhouse is not attributable to coding talent and startup culture alone; it is equally the result of visionaries who leveraged intellectual property, innovation, and disruption to overhaul entire industries. Among these, Jignesh Shah is prominent. His philosophy of IP-led disruption has had a lasting effect on financial markets. Although he has stepped down from all the executive roles at the company he founded and has taken the role of a coach and mentor, his philosophy continues to catalyse a new wave of transformation at 63 moons technologies. By advancing into cybersecurity, Web3, and legal tech, 63 moons is establishing India at the vanguard of the evolving technology ecosystem.
The Legacy of Disruption
Before fintech became a buzzword, Shah was already building it. His venture, Financial Technologies India Ltd. (now 63 moons), created trading platforms that democratized access to financial markets. He understood that technology could take what was once exclusive to a few and make it accessible to millions.
The Multi Commodity Exchange (Jignesh Shah MCX), MCX Stock Exchange (MCX-SX), Indian Energy Exchange (IEX), Dubai Gold and Commodities Exchange (DGCX), Singapore Mercantile Exchange (SMX), and Bourse Africa weren’t just institutions. They were proof that India could lead in financial innovation. His public-private partnership model showed that emerging economies could set global standards in efficiency and inclusivity.
That wave of innovation forever altered how financial markets worked. It brought efficiency, transparency, and scale in a way that rivals around the world were forced to acknowledge. And the driving principle behind it all, IP-led disruption, is the same engine now powering 63 moons’ foray into new-age technologies.
Philosophy at Core: Innovate, Disrupt, Democratize
Jignesh Shah’s mantra of “innovate, disrupt, democratize” was never a slogan. It was a blueprint. By creating intellectual property-driven platforms, he ensured that each venture wasn’t just a service but a transformative ecosystem. This philosophy continues to guide 63 moons as it moves into frontiers that will define the next generation of global technology: cybersecurity, Web3, and legal-tech.
Here’s how 63 moons is carrying that disruption forward.
Cybersecurity as Oxygen: 63SATS
We live in a world where data is the new oil and AI is the brain. But as Jignesh Shah rightly framed it, cybersecurity is oxygen. Without it, no digital economy can breathe. That’s the thinking behind 63SATS, 63 moons’ flagship cybersecurity initiative.
Unlike firms that only offer audits or one-off tools, 63SATS provides an end-to-end ecosystem. Its adaptability sets it apart, solutions aren’t off-the-shelf, they’re designed to evolve with rapidly changing threats.
With products like CYBX, 63CSF, and CYBERDOME, 63SATS covers the full spectrum, from individual protection to enterprise defense to national digital infrastructure. It’s not just about security; it’s about ensuring that India and its institutions have the digital oxygen they need to thrive in the decades ahead.
A Dream of Decentralized Future: 3.0 Labs
If 63 moons’ past was about democratizing markets, its present is about democratizing the digital economy. That’s where 3.0 Labs comes in.
Web3 isn’t just a buzzword; it’s the foundation for how trust, ownership, and value will be exchanged in the future. Through 3.0 Labs, 63 moons is building capabilities in blockchain, AI, tokenization, and the metaverse. By pushing forward applications in decentralized platforms and digital assets, it is creating the same kind of inclusivity and transparency that Shah pioneered in financial markets.
Revolutionsising Justice Delivery: QiLegal
Another sector ripe for disruption is law. India’s courts are clogged with backlogs, over 80,000 cases pending in the Supreme Court alone. Traditional litigation is slow, costly, and often inaccessible to many.
QiLegal, 63 moons’ legal-tech platform, takes a different approach. It is an AI-powered, cloud-based SuperApp designed to streamline arbitration, mediation, and dispute resolution. It offers tools for legal research, document management, and case workflows, making processes faster and more transparent.
By digitizing justice delivery, QiLegal doesn’t just reduce backlog, it makes justice more accessible. It echoes the vision of leaders like former Chief Justice D.Y. Chandrachud, who emphasized the importance of AI in modernizing India’s legal system. QiLegal is technology serving fairness, which is exactly the kind of disruption Shah has always stood for.
Empowering India’s Tech Leadership
Here’s the thing: countries don’t lead in technology by outsourcing or by following global trends. They lead when they create intellectual property that others adopt. Shah proved this once with his exchanges, which became benchmarks for efficiency and inclusivity. Now, with 63 moons’ ventures, he’s proving it again.
India has the talent, scale, and ambition to define the next wave of technology. With ventures like 63SATS, 3.0 Labs, and QiLegal, it also has the IP-driven platforms to anchor that leadership. This is not about catching up; it’s about leading from the front.
Philosophy of Equitable Growth and Collective Good
What ties all of this together is philosophy. Jignesh Shah believed that disruption must be IP-led, and that technology must democratize access, not concentrate it. That’s why his ventures reshaped markets across continents, and it’s why 63 moons’ current initiatives matter so much.
Cybersecurity, Web3, and legal-tech might seem like separate domains, but they share a common thread: they are systems of trust. Just as Shah once built trust in financial markets through technology, 63 moons is now building trust into the digital future.
This is India’s chance to not just participate in the global tech ecosystem but to lead it. The foundation is already being laid.
The Path Ahead
As AI, blockchain, and decentralized systems mature, the global economy will reorganize around them. The question is: who will define the rules of the game? With its IP-led approach, its track record of disruption, its deep-rooted philosophy, and after relinquishing all of his executive positions, Shah’s mentorship of 63 moons is positioning India to do exactly that.
The story that began with financial exchanges is now moving into cybersecurity, Web3, and legal systems. The stakes are bigger, the technologies newer, but the vision is the same. Innovate. Disrupt. Democratize.
And that is how India, led by pioneers like Jignesh Shah and the ventures of 63 moons, will shape the future tech ecosystem.
