As we further scaled our contribution in the different parts of the country, we have been successfully able to construct 20 more houses for the underprivileged families in Rewari, Haryana. We, at The Muthoot Group have always lived by the ethos of giving it back to the society. Therefore, we partnered with the Government of Haryana’s initiative to offer better living conditions to the needy sections of the society and to overcome challenges of housing and sanitation in the country.

We are also proud of the accelerating growth showcased by our Group’s North, East and West India Operations and are delighted to complement this expansion with the inauguration of our new office place in New Delhi. Apart from the growth strategy, we are on an aggressive expansion programme with hiring of more employees and addition of new-age verticals. We hope this will enable us to continue to remain robust in the gold-lending space.”

I would say that they are not just the pride of Kerala, they are the pride of India. As our government’s main motto is Sabka Sath, Sabka Vikas, Sabka Vishwas, along with it I would like to add Sabka Prayas. It’s the effort of everyone for the development of the society. On that line, I would like to applaud the efforts put in by The Muthoot Group by bringing about the financial inclusion and providing financial solutions to the common man of this country in a faster way.
