The missions concerned are not those of the coast of southwestern India, to which the name Malabar coast properly belongs, but rather those of nearby "inner" South India, especially those of the former Hindu "kingdoms"
Malabar trevally fish were caught as bycatch from the Persian Gulf in 2001. The species is caught by a variety of methods - hook-and-line, bottom trawls, gill nets, and traps.
