MTCC and ATCC are simply two different organizations that provide microbial cultures. MTCC is based in India, and ATCC is based in the USA. There are also many others, in many different countries. A list of these can be seen at http://www.wfcc.info/index.php/collections/display/
It is sometimes easiest to obtain cultures from one's own country, due to various import laws and customs regulations. Most of these collections will cross-index their strain numbers with those from other collections.
