Manappuram Finance Ltd., a leading NBFC, and other companies of the Kerala based Manappuram Group held its Annual Sports Meet at the Thalikulam GHSS grounds on January 26, 2018. The grueling day-long event featured competitions in more than fifteen athletic and sporting events for both individuals and teams, with male and female employees competing in three different age groups.
The highlight of the day was the presentation of four Maruti cars to prize-winning employees of Manappuram Finance Ltd. for outstanding performance in generating leads for the insurance business during the preceding quarter. Mr. V P Nandakumar, MD & CEO of Manappuram Finance Limited, formally handed over the keys of a brand new Maruti Celerio to the winner, Ms. Santhi V, employee of the company’s Ambasamudram Branch in Thirunelveli (Tamil Nadu).
Three other winners, Ms. Sarimol of Rajakad Branch (Idukki), Mr. Yedukondalu (Area Head, Ongole, Andhra Pradesh) and Mr. Jobin George (Regional Manager, Thrissur) received the keys to a new Maruti Alto each.
Manappuram Finance Ltd. has traditionally focused on gold loans but since 2014 has diversified aggressively into microfinance, insurance broking, home and vehicle loans, SME finance, foreign exchange and money transfer. The new businesses (including through its subsidiaries) now contribute more than 20 percent of the total business of the company.
