Manappuram MBA Award Presented to Aries Group CEO Sir Sohan Roy SK

Sir Sohan Roy SK, the visionary Founder Chairman, and CEO of Aries Group, was presented with the 18th edition of the Manappuram Multibillionaire Business Achiever (MBA) Award at a prestigious function held at Le Meridien, Kochi on May 26th. The award was handed over by V.P. Nandakumar, MD & CEO of Manappuram Finance Ltd., who also holds the distinction of being the first recipient of this highly regarded honor. The event was also attended by Dr Ajit Ravi, Chairman of Pegasus, who conceptualized both the MBA Award and the Federal International Chamber Forum (FICF).

This recognition grants Sir Sohan Roy a place in the FICF — a global club of ultra-successful entrepreneurs with assets valued at ₹1,000 crore or more, all of whom share a strong sense of social commitment. FICF, founded by Ajit Ravi, is unique in being the only billionaire club in the world that does not levy a membership fee, making it a symbol of prestige earned solely through merit and purpose.

Celebrating outstanding achievements in business along with an unwavering commitment to social causes, the MBA Award has previously honored industry leaders such as V.P. Nandakumar, Joy Alukkas, M.A. Yusuff Ali, T.S. Kalyanaraman, P.N.C. Menon, Gokulam Gopalan, Dr. Ravi Pillai, M.P. Ramachandran, Kochouseph Chittilappilly, Sabu M. Jacob, Dr. Viju Jacob, Dr. A.V. Anoop, Dr. Varghese Kurian, Adv. P. Krishnadas, and Dr. Hafeez Rahman.

The MBA Award continues to serve as a benchmark for entrepreneurial excellence, recognizing individuals who redefine success by channeling their influence and innovation toward meaningful social transformation.
