It will provide insurance coverage to the customers of Muthoot Finance as a loyalty product..
Mr. George Alexander Muthoot, Managing Director, Muthoot Finance said, “Muthoot Finance as a company has always believed in the philosophy of helping people and giving back to society. Going by the initial overwhelming response received to this insurance policy, it has been widely accepted by the customers of the Company.
