Relative Market Share
Muthoot Group has a balanced portfolio especially in their breadwinning segment -
Finance, consisting of numerous subdivisions like Gold loans, coins, forex etc. Those apart,
they have also ventured into other business categories like Education, CRM, Media..

7. BCG Matrix
Star:
Muthoot Precious Metals is their upcoming sector which sells gold coins in the retail
sector. The group is promoting it intensely (sponsoring the Delhi Daredevils team).
There is a high market potential and growth rate in the segment
Cash Cow:
Finance sector is the cash cow, it’s the money generating unit of the group. It’s
number one in the segment (of NBFS), although it’s expanding, it doesn’t require
much attention.
? :
Banking is a new segment that Muthoot has decided to venture into. It has high
market growth and share potential. It’s still under the govt approval process.
Dog:
Media is a division that doesn’t generate much revenue for the Group. Muthoot
owns a local radio station in Chennai (Chennai Live) that plays English music. They
make enough money to sustain themselves currently.
