AB  - The strong in-plane anisotropy and quasi-1D electronic structures of 
      transition-metal trichalcogenides (MX(3); M = group IV or V transition metal; X = 
      S, Se, or Te) have pronounced influence on moulding the properties of MX(3) 
      materials. In particular, the infinite trigonal MX(6) prismatic chains running 
      parallel to the b-axis are responsible for the manifestation of anisotropy in 
      these materials. Several marvellous properties, such as inherent electronic, 
      optical, electrical, magnetic, superconductivity, and charge density wave (CDW) 
      transport properties, make transition-metal trichalcogenides (TMTCs) stand out 
      from other 2D materials in the fields of nanoscience and materials science. In 
      addition, with the assistance of pressure, temperature, and tensile strain, these 
      materials and their exceptional properties can be tuned to a superior extent. The 
      robust anisotropy and incommensurable properties make the MX(3) family fit for 
      accomplishing quite a lot of compelling applications in the areas of field effect 
      transistors (FETs), solar and fuel cells, lithium-ion batteries, 
      thermoelectricity, etc. In this review article, a precise audit of the 
      distinctive crystal structures, static and dynamic properties, efficacious 
      synthesis schemes, and enthralling applications of quasi-1D MX(3) materials is 
      made.
