How big is Aditya Birla Group?

Let’s have a look.

Aditya Birla Group is a FATHER’s companion who helps him build his home for his children with UltraTech Cement, an ABG product.

Aditya Birla Group is a MOTHER’s choice.

Every morning when I woke up early for school, I saw my mother joyfully packing my lunch wrapped with Freshwrapp Kitchen Foil. I could see a sense of satisfaction on her face as she believed her child would eat fresh and safe food. Freshwrapp is a product of Hindalco Industries Ltd., a part of ABG.

Aditya Birla Group is a CHILD’s excitement.

While I was young, my favourite part of the year was when we went on vacations. The 2-3 days of journey in train is something I would cherish throughout my life. But why did I relate ABG to this journey? Because a large share of the copper requirement of Indian Railways is fulfilled by Birla Copper, a unit of Hindalco Industries Ltd.

Aditya Birla Group is a TEENAGER’s addiction.

When I got my first smart phone, the only network I could rely on was Idea Cellular. IDEA gave me an exposure to the world of internet. It helped me stay connected with all my friends through phone calls even after school.

Aditya Birla Group is a GIRL’s perfect fashion choice.

Want to go to a party and still wondering what to wear? Then Pantaloons and Lifestyle are the perfect destinations to be at. Pantaloons and Lifestyle have always been the one stop solution for me. Be it a T-shirt, jeans or ethnic wear, these stores never happened to disappoint me. Forever 21, Van Heusen, Allen Solly and People are some of the brands I can always rely on.

The story does not end here. Apart from being a major part of my life, ABG reaches to 7.5 million people across geographies. ABG has immunized 70 million children against polio. It runs 5,000 medical camps and 20 hospitals. Moreover, it operates 56 schools for 46,500 school children and provides mid-day meals everyday for 63,000 children in 268 schools.

Aditya Birla Group is not only BIG in my life, it has impacted several thousands of lives.

Aditya Birla Group is for EVERYONE!

PATIENCE IS THE PATH TO SUCCESS: MY STORY OF OVERCOMING MY FEAR

The toughest job in the world is not to convince the society, but to convince oneself.

I have been brought up in a family where I was never pressurized for studying. My childhood was very different from that of my friends. While my friends were severely punished for their mischiefs and lack of interest in studies, I was always motivated to study when I wanted to.

This continued throughout and I started believing that it was my duty to perform well as my parents were too supportive. I aced 10th, 12th and Graduation and then the bigger picture of my life began. I started preparing for CAT. This was the first time I started feeling insecured about my performance. I took several mocks in which I under performed. This led to a constant fear in my mind. A fear of ‘what if’ I fail. A fear of ‘what if’ I disappoint my parents. This fear insisted me to join M.Sc instead of MBA as I thought I won’t be able to clear CAT and I already had admission offer in M.Sc from my Undergraduate University. As people usually tend to choose the easier path, I too made up my mind and decided to join M.Sc.

But this decision did not give me the satisfaction which I always believed in. I had always dreamt of studying in a premier B-School and I could not let one wrong decision ruin my career. This was the moment when I had to be patient and deal with my fear.

I took a gap of few days and introspected myself properly. I made myself believe that I should keep my spirit high and keep preparing as hard as I could because Success come to those who have Patience.  

I soon resumed my preparation and scored well enough to be qualified for the further rounds. I wore my VAN HEUSEN Formal Suit on the Interview Day and it helped me being comfortable and confident. Even here, Aditya Birla Group was a major part of my day and helped me achieve my dream.

THANK YOU Aditya Birla Group for being a constant in my life.
