Muthoot Group Launches Muthoot Business School offering first-of-its-kind pre-PGDM paid internship programme in Kochi

Muthoot Business School offers AICTE - approved PGDM (Global) program with specializations in FinTech, Analytics, Data Science, HRM, and the Metaverse. Pre-Placement Offers (PPOs) of up to ₹9 LPA extended to selected students before academic sessions begin.

The Muthoot Group has announced the launch of Muthoot Business School (MBS) at Kochi, Kerala. Conceived as a Neo Tech Global Corporate Business School, Muthoot Business School is set to redefine management education by seamlessly integrating academic excellence with industry immersion, technological fluency, and ethical leadership.

The institution was launched by Dr. Shashi Tharoor, MP (Thiruvananthapuram), who praised MBS for blending academic excellence with real-world exposure through its Work-Integrated Learning model, Pre-PGDM internships, and focus on cutting-edge fields like AI and Blockchain. He noted that the institution is uniquely positioned to produce leaders equipped for an evolving global landscape.

Highlighting the shifting role of business in society, Dr. Tharoor emphasised that “today’s enterprises must prioritise values alongside value.” Citing Mahatma Gandhi’s caution against “commerce without morality,” he urged the corporate world to lead with conscience and sustainability. To the inaugural batch of students, he offered a powerful message: “You are not just being prepared for the market - you are being equipped to shape society.

George Alexander Muthoot, Managing Director, The Muthoot Group, added: “For over six decades, the Muthoot Group — guided by the vision and values of the Muthoot family — has quietly but purposefully built institutions that matter. From eight educational institutions and three hospitals - which includes an engineering college that has consistently ranked among the top three in Kerala, our journey has always been rooted in service and nation-building. Today, we take a bold new step forward. With the launch of our neo-tech Global Corporate Business School, we’re not just creating another institution - we’re setting a vision into motion. A vision that reflects our belief in leaders nurturing leaders. A vision that embraces the future, while standing firm on the legacy of the past.”
