    Direct benefit transfer for welfare pensions replaces cooperative-bank doorstep delivery, while retaining limited home service for excluded beneficiaries.

The change is associated with delays in remitting undistributed amounts, record-update failures, reconciliation issues, duplicate payments, and incomplete Aadhaar-based payment implementation. Concerns have been raised that mandatory bank-account credit may disadvantage beneficiaries dependent on doorstep delivery.

      With this launch, Muthoot FinCorp Ltd. bets on a phygital model by bringing loans, investments, insurance, and payments onto one app, backed by its 3750+ branch network Chandan Khaitan, Chief Executive Officer, Muthoot FinCorp ONE Jan. 21, 2025, India: Muthoot FinCorp Ltd. (Muthoot Blue) has announced its evolution into a full-scale financial services marketplace, integrating loans, investments, savings, payments, and insurance with its digital platform, Muthoot FinCorp ONE.

It currently has over 2 million monthly active users, enabling customers to access multiple services including loans, investments, insurance, and payments all within one app.

Nearly 500 million adults remain outside the formal credit system, often turning to unregulated sources. With 45% of Muthoot FinCorp’s customers being new-to-credit, the company is positioning its phygital marketplace as a bridge between aspiration and accessibility, designed to bring regulated, affordable financial solutions to the underserved.
