The MoUs were signed after the delegation-level talks between Prime Minister Narendra Modi and his Australian counterpart Malcolm Turnbull in New Delhi.
The two leaders held comprehensive discussions on bilateral, regional and worldwide issues of mutual interest and concern.
Turnbull added that Australia is working with India on Regional Comprehensive Economic Partnership, the RCEP. India beat Australia 2-1 in the four-match Test cricket series that concluded recently.
India and Australia signed six agreements on Monday following bilateral talks headed by Modi and Turnbull.
He said the auction of coal and non-coal minerals was a testimony of the Modi government's focus on transparency.
According to Sydney Morning Herald, Turnbull effectively declared Tony Abbott's dream of an express negotiation phase had been unrealistic, stating that a potentially lucrative free trade agreement with India was now on the backburner.

He said: "We'll be speaking privately to the family in the next few days about what they want to do and how we can support them". Hospital bosses say doctors will continue to provide life-support treatment until appeal decisions have been made.
"And, with the passing of legislation in the Australian Parliament with bipartisan support, Australia is now ready to export uranium to India".
"Our long-term aim is to be India's key global education partner and this trip was a key step forward". Two-way goods and services trade between Australia and India totalled 18 billion dollars in 2014-15.
However, it noted that the prospects of sealing free trade deal were played down during Turnbull's visit.
Turnbull said "Our nations are bound together not just by centuries of history but by millions of people-to-people links".
"I am confident that, thanks to the positive discussions had in India, it won't be too long until we see Australian universities and training providers complement their significant numbers of Indian students studying in Australia with a significant presence in India too". It highlights the world-class reputation of our education system while also smoothing the way for Australian trainers to gain greater access to the booming Indian market.
Turnbull was described as "in his element" during his Delhi Metro ride along with Modi.
