Aditya Birla has touched millions of lives in a positive manner by contributing in almost all possible domains like environment, education, employment, health, financial safety and many others.
The Aditya Birla has touched every Indian life in one or other way and so mine as well . I am closely connected with its products and services. Freshwrapp is one of the products that has been used my mother for packaging our tiffin for many years. It gives her sense of assurance regarding the quality of food thus our health and now it became one of the important parts of our daily life.
Pantaloons owned by Aditya Birla Group is one of the most loved retail stores for my family and we love to shop various brands partnered by pantaloons like BIBA, W, Levis, Lee Cooper, Allen Solly and others also. The online platform of Pantaloons has added more convenience to my life and made my life easier to get the best products at a discounted price that too from my convenient location.
Another important service which is used by me since long and has become one of the most important part of my life as it provides me connectivity to my family, friends, relatives and colleagues is Vodafone .
There are other products or initiatives which are not directly realized but are an important part of my life like carbon black which is used everyday as it is used in tyres. Various Initiatives are taken by Aditya Birla Group to tackle major concerns which are related to environment pollution and overexploitation of resources. For example using energy efficient measures like solar panels, recycling of the waste in its various centres, the initiative taken toward this is recycling of over 65 billion cans every year which will help to reduce the environment waste.
Aditya Birla group has grown immensely in terms of financial value which is now the US $44.3 billion, employment opportunities to over 120,000 people belonging to 42 nationalities, number of companies which are currently 38 in numbers, a wide range of business sectors like cement, education, finance, carbon black, chemical, textile, metal and telecom.
Mr Aditya Birla dared to dream of setting up a global business empire at the age of 24. He was the first to put Indian business, Aditya Birla Group, on the world map, long before globalisation. It was his vision and perseverance that made it possible. Quoting Mr Aditya Birla "My vocation is to strive continuously, to reach excellence in all spheres of management, by weaving the threads of enterprise, knowledge, experience, ideas and tasks into a fabric that can be called 'management' ".
I want to connect the story of continuously striving despite hardships, my father belongs to a family where he had faced many hardships in his early days due to financial constraints but despite facing so many odds, he dared to do best in his capabilities for himself and for his family. He always believed in inclusive growth and thus decided to take care of three of his brother's children along with three of his own children due to some reason. It was not an easy decision and needs a lot of commitment from each one of us. So, since the early days of my life, I learned the same lesson and tried my best to take care of people around me while trying to fulfil my own desires. There were many instances where I needed to maintain balance and put extra efforts. “In this way, you may reach little late where you want to reach but it's fulfilling”.
