Commenting on this win, Ajit Menon, Executive Director- Organisation Development said, “Winning this award for the fourth consecutive year and going a step ahead and bagging it from ‘Asia’s Best Employer Brands’ where over 50 national and international corporates were competing with each other, speaks a lot for itself. I would like to thank all the LLC representatives, across the Mudra Group, who have worked hard to help achieve this goal.”

Madhukar Kamath, MD & CEO, Mudra Group said, “The Mudra Group has one of the most robust investments in its talent agenda and the Learning, Leadership & Change team. Our commitment to talent is reflected in the fact that we are one of the few organizations with our HR head on the Group Executive Board. We have also synergized our IT and talent portfolios under the common leadership of Ajit Menon. This is a reflection of our fundamental belief in the linkages between technology, people and productivity. These awards are very encouraging and will spur us forward with greater enthusiasm.”
