Muthoot Pappachan Group (MPG), the 137-year-old Indian conglomerate known as Muthoot Blue, has announced the appointment of its fourth-generation leaders to the Board of Directors. This new generation, continuing MPG’s legacy, will join the current leadership team, marking a significant move towards securing the Group’s future while honoring its rich heritage. Founded in 1887 by Mr. Ninan Mathai Muthoot, the Group has continuously evolved to meet customer needs while staying true to its core values. The leadership expansion proposal has been approved by the Reserve Bank of India (RBI) and the Boards of the respective companies.

The next-generation leaders—Tina George Muthoot, Thomas Muthoot John, and Suzannah Muthoot—have joined as Executive Directors in Muthoot Capital Services, Muthoot MicroFin, and Muthoot Housing Finance, respectively.

Ritu George Muthoot and Susan John Muthoot have joined Muthoot Capital Services as Non-Executive Directors. 

Hannah Muthoot will join as Director of Muthoot International Sports School. In partnership with Brooke House College, UK, the school offers a blend of world-class academics and elite training in Football, Badminton, and Volleyball, featuring state-of-the-art facilities and a Cambridge curriculum designed to nurture future sports stars.

All are set to infuse fresh ideas and energy into MPG’s growth journey. As members of the fourth generation of the Muthoot Pappachan family, they have been rigorously prepared through a structured induction program that began in their early years. This hands-on experience started at entry-level positions within various entities of the Group and progressed through mid-management roles. Over the years, they have gained extensive practical experience and a deep understanding of the Group’s values and operations, making them well-equipped to lead alongside the current generation of directors.

This collaboration between the experienced existing leadership and the fourth generation promises to drive MPG’s next phase of innovation and expansion. The strengthened leadership team will focus on enhancing the Group’s nationwide presence and delivering customer-centric products across key verticals, including Muthoot FinCorp (the flagship company), Muthoot Capital Services, Muthoot MicroFin, Muthoot Housing Finance, and other Group entities.

With a nationwide network of over 5,200 branches and a workforce of over 40,000 employees, MPG remains a key player in financial services, offering a wide range of tailor-made products to meet the evolving needs of customers. The Group’s expansion into diverse sectors, including Hospitality, Automotive, Realty, IT Services, Precious Metals, and Alternate Energy, positions it to continue leading in various industries, driving value through both traditional and digital solutions.

Thomas John Muthoot, Chairman of Muthoot Pappachan Group and Muthoot FinCorp, shared: “We are excited to welcome the fourth generation of leaders to the Board. Over the past decade, they have gained invaluable experience working outside the organization and later began their journey within MPG at foundational roles. This approach has provided them with a well-rounded understanding of our operations and values. Their integration with the existing leadership is a defining moment in MPG’s history. I am confident that their innovative ideas and fresh energy, combined with their respect for our legacy, will steer the Group toward even greater achievements”.
