- Parambil Thoma (1653) - intrusus (proclaimed bishop in 1653, remained without consecration until 1665. In 1665, he was consecrated by Jacobite bishop Gregorios Abdul Jaleel, leading to the formation of Puthenkoor Jacobite Syrians led by Malankara Jacobite bishops who succeeded him. This was accompanied by the schism of Saint Thomas Christians into East Syriac and West Syriac factions.)[6]
- Joseph Maria Sebastiani (1656–1663)- intrusus as the Vicar apostolic of Malabar
- Mar Alaksandros I (AD 1663) (also Vicar Apostolic of Malabar)[6]
- Shemon of Ada (1700 – 1720) - sent by Patriarch Eliah IX Yohannan Augen, he was arrested by Latin missionaries. Hoping to get freed, he consecrated Angelo Francisco, the Carmelite Vicar Apostolic of Verapoly in 1701. But was imprisoned in Pondicherry where he was found dead in a well.

- Abraham Paulose Pandari (1796–1799) - consecrated by Chaldean Catholic Patriarch Yohannan VIII Hormizd, briefly recognised by Dionysius I and Paremmakkal Thoma in 1799, but never recognised by the Pope.
- Thoma Rokkos - consecrated by Chaldean Catholic Patriarch Joseph VI Audo, achieved limited recognition from a section of Saint Thomas Christians of both factions, received by the Jacobite Metropolitan in Angamaly, however excommunicated by the Pope.[7]
- Yohannan Elia Mellus (1874 – 1882) - sent by Patriarch Joseph VI Audo, consolidated strong support among the Catholic Saint Thomas Christians, but excommunicated by the pope. He led the movement which led to the formation of the Chaldean Syrian Church and the erection of separate Syro-Malabar hierarchy.[5][8][9][10][7]
