										<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p><strong>Bengaluru, December 10, 2025:</strong> Muthoot Finance, India’s largest gold-loan NBFC, crossed the Rs 1.5 trillion market-capitalisation milestone, marking one of the fastest phases of shareholder value creation in the NBFC space in recent years.</p>
<p>The company had first crossed the Rs 1 trillion valuation milestone on June 9, 2025, and added the next Rs 50,000 crore in market capitalisation within just five months, supported by consistent record-breaking business performance, historically strong profitability, and sustained growth momentum in its core gold-loan franchise. With this milestone, Muthoot Finance has emerged as the 59th largest company in India by market capitalisation, and 12th among listed financial services companies.</p>
<p>The company’s financial results for Q2 and H1 FY26 have reinforced this upward trajectory. Consolidated Loan Assets Under Management (AUM) rose to an all-time high of <b>Rs 1.47 lakh crore</b> as of September 30, 2025, up 42% year-on-year, driven predominantly by the strong performance of the gold-loan portfolio. Consolidated profit after tax for H1 FY26 surged 74% year-on-year, while standalone performance was also the highest ever, with standalone loan AUM increasing 47% year-on-year to <b>Rs 1.32 lakh crore</b> and standalone profit after tax rising 88% year-on-year to <b>Rs 4,391 crore</b>.</p>
<p>The total quantity of gold pledged as security increased to 209 tonnes from 199 tonnes a year earlier, and the group’s branch network expanded to 7,524 locations. The company’s capital position remained solid with a 20.89% Capital Adequacy Ratio, supported by stable asset quality and a strong liquidity position.</p>
<p>Commenting on the development, <b>Mr. George Alexander Muthoot</b>, Managing Director, said: <i>“</i>Crossing the Rs 1.5 trillion market-capitalisation mark is a significant validation of the strength and resilience of our business model. The sharp shareholder value creation in the past few months reflects the market’s recognition of our consistent growth in loan AUM, robust profitability and disciplined approach to gold jewelry-backed lending. This milestone reinforces the long-term trust that investors place in us, and we remain committed to building on this growth momentum through continued digital enhancement, branch expansion and sustained operational excellence. With record half-yearly performance, strong capitalisation and a robust demand outlook, the company remains well-positioned to sustain its growth trajectory through FY26 and beyond.<i>.</i>.”</p>
<p>The recent market re-rating also reflects the growing investor confidence in the company’s strategic direction. Muthoot Finance has received three major international rating upgrades in the past year. Fitch Ratings upgraded the company from BB to BB+ with a Stable outlook, Moody’s upgraded its long-term corporate family rating from Ba2 to Ba1 with a Stable outlook, and S&amp;P Global Ratings upgraded its long-term issuer credit rating from BB/B to BB+/B with a Stable outlook. Together, these upgrades, along with the successful $600 million global bond issuance, further strengthen the company’s financial profile and reinforce its global standing.</p>

										<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>·         <i>Plans to scale its AUM more than 4x over next five years</i><b><i></i></b></p>
<p>·         <i>Funds to fuel expansion into Tier 2 &amp; Tier 3 cities, the next growth hubs</i><b><i></i></b></p>
<p>·         <i>Strategic investments planned in technology, governance, risk, and talent for sustainable scale-up</i><b><i></i></b><b><i> </i></b></p>
<p><b>Bengaluru, 25, August 2025</b> – Muthoot Finance, India’s largest gold loan NBFC, has infused ₹200 crore into Muthoot Homefin (India) Ltd (MHIL), a wholly-owned housing finance subsidiary, for its expansion into more than 250 cities across India. This strategic investment comes at a time when Muthoot Homefin is witnessing strong business momentum and reflects its commitment to strengthen its presence in the affordable housing sector.</p>
<p>With this capital infusion, MHIL aims to scale its AUM over four-fold over the next five years and emerge as a formidable player in affordable housing finance, particularly across Tier 2 and Tier 3 markets. The company is also targeting a multi-year scale-up that focuses on expanding its pan-Indian footprint through sustainable and responsible growth.</p>
<p>Commenting on the development, <b>Mr. George Alexander Muthoot, Managing Director of Muthoot Finance and sole shareholder of Muthoot Homefin</b>, said: <i>“This capital infusion by Muthoot Finance reflects our strong conviction in the fast-growing Indian economy and the critical role affordable housing will play in shaping India’s economic future. With the continued backing from Muthoot Finance, we are confident of scaling this business responsibly and sustainably. The strongest housing growth will come from India’s Tier 2 and Tier 3 cities, and this infusion equips us to deepen our presence in these markets while staying true to our mission of enabling dignified homeownership for first-time home buyers and self-employed customers.”</i></p>
<p>Over the last two years, Muthoot Homefin has seen its disbursements grow nearly 6x and Assets under Management (AUM) has doubled to ₹ 3,096 crore. The company’s branch network, manpower, and direct sourcing capabilities have scaled significantly, with a sharp focus on turnaround time, governance, and technology-led credit processes. The fresh funds will further enable Muthoot Homefin to strengthen its lending portfolio, deepen its footprint across underserved housing markets, and invest in digital infrastructure and talent.</p>
<p><i>“After the COVID-19 pandemic we have been strengthening systems, and sharpening execution. This investment is not just about growth, but about enabling the dream of homeownership for aspiring Indian families,” </i><b>Mr. Alok Aggarwal, CEO of Muthoot Homefin </b>added<b>.</b></p>
<p>The roadmap includes a calibrated expansion of branches, sustained improvements in asset quality, and strategic investments in technology, talent, and risk frameworks – with the goal of delivering long-term shareholder value while staying true to its mission of enabling homeownership.</p>
<p>With this capital raise, Muthoot Homefin is poised to further elevate its market presence in the affordable housing finance segment, continuing its mission of enabling affordable homeownership for millions of aspiring Indian families.</p>

										<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p><strong>Bengaluru, 16<sup>th</sup> July – </strong>Muthoot Finance, India’s largest gold loan NBFC, fully backed international-level skater AA Abna, a rising talent from Kerala, who is steadily carving her path in India’s sporting landscape. She is now set to represent the nation at the 20th Asian Roller-Skating Championship in Korea in July 2025. Abna is competing in the Senior Women’s Inline Speed Skating category, with her events scheduled for July 23.</p>
<p>Abna’s confirmed race entries include: 10 km Elimination Track Race, 5 km Points Track Race, 10 km Points Road Race, 15 km Elimination Road Race, 3000 m Relay (Relay team to be finalized post current training camp). This marks another milestone in Abna’s meteoric rise, which has been powered by Muthoot Finance’s holistic CSR sponsorship. This covers monthly stipend, training, equipment, travel, accommodation, and support for state/national events, allowing her to focus entirely on her performance.</p>
<p>Since receiving this support, Abna’s career has witnessed a remarkable ascent. Apart from the World Skates Games in Italy (2024), she gave gold-studded performance at the district and state -level championships. Her consistent success led to podium finishes at the National Skating Championship. Most recently, she clinched three gold medals at the MG Inter-University Roller Skating Competition, further establishing her dominance. In 2025, she continued her winning streak with four gold medals at the 8th Ranking Roller Skating Championship in Kerala, excelling in the 10 km elimination track race, 5 km points track race, 10 km points road race, and 15 km elimination road race.</p>
<p>A second-year B.Com LLB student, Abna began skating in the fourth standard. Despite the lack of proper coaching facilities and skating tracks in Kerala, she pushed through with grit and support of her family. Her mother left her teaching job to accompany her for training and competitions, and her father, a former cricketer with the Kerala team, instilled in her a deep sporting spirit from a young age. She currently trains at YARS (Yashwanth’s Academy of Roller Skating) in Palakkad, clocking six hours of rigorous training every day across two sessions.</p>
<p>“My dream is to see the Indian flag fly because of me. The support from Muthoot Finance has not just given me financial backing but also immense motivation to believe in my potential. It is helping me dream bigger and push harder for my next medal,” said AA Abna, National Skater.</p>
<p>“We believe that sports can play a vital role in shaping character, instil discipline, and offer positive direction to youth. India is home to immense untapped sports talent at the grassroot level, and our CSR initiative is focused on identifying and nurturing that potential. Supporting Abna reaffirms our commitment to build an inclusive sports ecosystem that empowers athletes to rise against the odds,” said George Muthoot George, Deputy Managing Director of Muthoot Finance. Beyond individual sponsorships, Muthoot Finance’s CSR initiatives under sports promotion include infrastructure support for athletes, government institutions, provide assistance to para-athletes, sub-junior weightlifters, archery talents, and more.</p>

										<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>·         Moody’s upgraded Long Term issuer rating of Muthoot Finance from ‘Ba2’ to ‘Ba1’ with ‘Stable’ Outlook.</p>
<p><b>Bengaluru, April 3, 2025</b> – <b>Moody’s Ratings </b>in its press release has stated, inter alia, “<i>The upgrade of Muthoot&#8217;s ratings reflects its strong credit profile, supported by its leading franchise and solid track record in the gold financing industry in India.</i></p>
<p>Muthoot&#8217;s strong operational controls and risk management practices in the gold financing portfolio support its growth and asset quality. Despite strong competition and aggressive lending practices by other banks and non-bank financial institutions, the company has maintained its underwriting standards resulting in consistent loan growth and stable asset quality.</p>
<p>Muthoot is most profitable among our rated Indian finance companies, and its profitability is a significant credit strength. Net income to average managed assets was strong at 4.9% in the nine months ended December 2024, supported by a high net interest margin and low credit costs on gold financing. The company&#8217;s superior profitability supports internal capitalization, reflected in its tangible common equity to total managed assets (TCE/TMA) of around 23.3% at the end of December 2024.”</p>
<p><b>George Alexander Muthoot, Managing Director</b>, on this occasion, stated “We are pleased to announce that Moody&#8217;s Ratings has upgraded our long-term corporate family rating to Ba1 from Ba2. This upgrade signifies Moody&#8217;s confidence in our robust financial performance, strong asset quality, and resilient business model of The Muthoot Group. The Ba1 rating reflects Muthoot Finance&#8217;s consistent profitability, prudent risk management practices, and diversified funding profile. Our strong operational resilience, demonstrated by our ability to navigate challenging market conditions, has also been recognized by Moody&#8217;s Ratings. This credit rating upgrade is a testament to the dedication of our employees, the trust of our customers, and the support of our stakeholders. We remain committed to delivering sustainable growth, enhancing stakeholder value, and maintaining our position as a leader in the financial services industry.</p>
<p>We express our sincere gratitude to all our stakeholders for their unwavering support and belief in Muthoot Finance. We will continue to strive for excellence and uphold the highest standards of corporate governance and ethics.”</p>
<p>In addition, Muthoot Finance has also received an upgrade from S&amp;P Global Ratings to ‘BB+’ with a ‘Stable’ outlook, further reinforcing its strong financial position and commitment to excellence in the financial services sector.</p>

										<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p><em>Commits to continuing business performance for a decade</em></p>
<p><strong>Bengaluru, January 20, 2025</strong>:  Muthoot Finance Ltd (MFIN), India’s largest gold financing company in terms of loan portfolio, has continued its streak as the only gold loan NBFC named in RBI’s ‘Upper Layer’ list for three consecutive years. The company received the Upper Layer status for the first time in FY’23.</p>
<p>In Q2FY25, the company had crossed the historic milestone of ₹1 lakh crore in consolidated loan assets under management. In Q2 FY25, it recorded a net profit of ₹1,321 crore, registering a 21% year-on-year growth, and its total revenue from operations surged by 36.7% to ₹4,928.8 crore.</p>
<p>The Reserve Bank of India (RBI) classifies Non-Banking Financial Companies (NBFCs) into different layers based on their size (base layer, middle layer, and upper layer), activities, and risk levels under the Scale Based Regulation (SBR) framework. The Upper Layer comprise of those NBFCs which are specifically identified by the Reserve Bank as warranting enhanced regulatory requirement based on a set of parameters and scoring methodology.</p>
<p><strong>George Alexander Muthoot, Managing Director, Muthoot Finance,</strong> said: “It is a matter of great pride for us that not only do we comply with the highest standards of regulatory compliance, as prescribed by the Reserve Bank of India (RBI), but have also consistently delivered strong business growth. As we move forward, Muthoot Finance remains committed to strengthening our leadership in the gold loan industry while broadening our portfolio with new products and services to meet the diverse financial needs of our customers. NBFCs are vital for the country’s growth as they enable financial inclusion for a large population who otherwise would not have easy access to credit. We are focused on addressing the needs of the MSME segment through a diverse set of product offerings. This is exemplified by the fact that 66% of women gold loan borrowers use the funds to support their small or micro businesses, which play a crucial role in driving economic development. We believe that we can continue our strong growth momentum and remain steadfast as an ‘Upper Layer NBFC’ for a decade or more”.</p>
