REMOVAL FROM REGISTRATION OF UNSOLD SECURITIES

This Post-Effective Amendment No. 1 to Form S-3 on Form S-1 (this “Post-Effective Amendment”) relates to the Registration on Form S-3 (File No. 333-146831) of BMB Munai, Inc., a Nevada corporation (the “Company”), originally filed on October 19, 2007, as amended (the “Registration Statement”), which was declared effective by the Securities and Exchange Commission (the “SEC”) on January 25, 2008. The Registration Statement registered for resale by the selling security holders named therein the Company’s $60,000,000 5.0% Convertible Senior Notes Due 2012, which were subsequently amended and designated as the Company’s $61,399,800 10.75% Convertible Senior Notes Due 2013 (as so designated, the “Notes”), and the shares of the Company’s common stock, $0.001 par value per share (the “Common Stock”), into which the Notes were convertible. The Notes have been repaid and redeemed in full prior to any conversion of the Notes into Common Stock. As a result, the offering contemplated by the Registration Statement has terminated and the Company’s obligation to maintain effective with the SEC the Registration Statement covering the resale of the Notes and the underlying Common Stock has terminated.

In accordance with the undertaking of the Company in the Registration Statement to remove from registration, by means of a post-effective amendment, any and all of the securities which remained unsold at the termination of the offering, the Company is filing this Post-Effective Amendment to remove from registration the Notes and the Common Stock registered under the Registration Statement which remained unsold at the termination of the offering. The Registration Statement is hereby amended, as appropriate, to reflect the deregistration of such securities.

Pursuant to the requirements of the Securities Act of 1933, as amended, the registrant has duly caused this Post-Effective Amendment to the Registration Statement to be signed on its behalf by the undersigned, thereunto duly authorized, in the city of Almaty, Republic of Kazakhstan, on this 7th day of October, 2011.
