Aditya Birla Group is a “US $44.3 billion corporation, the Aditya Birla Group is in the League of Fortune 500. Anchored by an extraordinary force of over 120,000 employees belonging to 42 nationalities, the Group is built on a strong foundation of stakeholder value creation. With over seven decades of responsible business practices, our businesses have grown into global powerhouses in a wide range of sectors – metals, textiles, carbon black, telecom and cement. Today, over 50% of Group revenues flow from overseas operations that span 34 countries in North and South America, Africa and Asia.”

Given the facts, the Aditya Birla group has made it large in the entire world, not only in the world but in the hearts and minds of people around the globe. Thus, including me, ABG has made Big in the lives of everyone.

When I think of myself, how ABG has impacted my life, the first thing comes to my mind is family- as I am out of my home for the first time and calling and getting in touch with my friends and family is easier because of ABG; Idea and Vodafone, the network connectivity and speed is amazing in the hilltop heaven in Sanquelim, Goa.

When I see buildings and houses around me and the home people have made in these structures, it touches my heart. The cement by the Birla group has made it possible to root the emotions strong in the land of mother earth.

As I was coming to the Goa Institute of Management, it is mandatory to have a few pairs of formals as a dress code for various events at the campus. Brands like Allen Solly, Van huesan, etc. made it easier and quicker for me to grab the stylish and apt attire for the occasion.

Save investment schemes by Aditya Birla Capital also have given a sense of protection to millions of people living in India or across the globe.

Not only in the sector of fashion, cement, textile, telecom, financial services, but also in its CSR initiative in Healthcare, Education, Livelihood, Infrastructure, etc. ABG has indeed made a better living space for society.

Challenges are an integral phase of life. Life is incomplete without challenges. The hard rock situations in the path of your life teach you, make you learn and evolve you as a person who you are or you become after evolution. Challenges test your resilience and make you wiser.

The challenges I faced are, leaving my home and city for the first time and getting settled into a place with new people. Before that, the previous year was full of challenges, as I was in my final year of graduation and had to prepare for various competitive and college entrance exams, along with studying for the final semesters, preparing for interviews and pushing my limits as I am a fresher, but at the end every challenge teaches you something and give the best you deserve. I got into one of the top B-School in India and entered into a new phase of the challenge, hoping it will again reward me fruitfully.
