G-character tables of a finite group G were defined in Felipe et al. (Quaest Math, 2022. ). These tables can be very useful to obtain certain structural information of a normal subgroup from the character table of G. We analyze certain structural properties of normal subgroups which can be determined using their G-character tables. For instance, we prove an extension of the Thompson’s theorem from minimal G-invariant characters of a normal subgroup. We also obtain a variation of Taketa’s theorem for hypercentral normal subgroups considering their minimal G-invariant characters. This generalization allows us to introduce a new class of nilpotent groups, the class of nMI-groups, whose members verify that its nilpotency class is bounded by the number of irreducible character degrees of the group.
