India’s multinational conglomerate “Aditya Birla Group” there is no doubt that they come from Agribusiness to IT industry, even we talk about fashion in INDIA most of the premium brands like Louis Philippe, Allen Solly, Peter England and many more are acquired by Aditya Birla Group. “The first impression is the last impression” as I believed in this quote Aditya Birla Group plays an important role in my life as my first professional interview was for my dream B-School. I remember when I was planning to buy formal for an interview first thought came in my mind I should visit “Allen Solly” Outlet no doubt that I wanted to look professional and put my all efforts and I can proudly say my first suit is from Allen Solly and in which I look more confident. Aditya Birla Group provides premium services in an economy budget where everyone can get it. Apart from this experience, I remember in my childhood one thing about marketing, the big banner of Ultratech cement which I used to see every day outside my school. Kumar Mangalam Birla has been an inspiration for me all the time, I heard him the first time where he was the chief guest for convocation 2019 of IIM Ahmedabad. He is such an inspiration, 1998 when he was 28 years old became head of Aditya Birla Group and he proved that age is nothing but knowledge and skills have importance. Idea Cellular which connected me during my board exams as I was staying in a hostel and my parents were far away from me where I used to talk long hours on phone and Idea was the one who kept connected us.
I would not say that I have achieved my ambition but I have covered 75% of the road map to my ambition. Challenges come everywhere you must know how to tackle them instead of getting afraid, my experience of facing challenges was one of the most memorable moment for me where I took the decision and today I am standing on it. After completing my intermediate I wasn’t able to get into IIT’s so I took admission into one of the private colleges which were providing the highest scholarship to me. I wasn’t aware of what kind of courses will be provided during engineering and not even aware of strengths, weakness, and interests. Simply my friends were getting into IITs and choosing Computer Science as a course I also made up my mind to do engineering in computer science only. The dilemma I faced was I was alone in my section who doesn’t know the coding and somehow I passed the first year and joined into co-curricular clubs. After experiencing the qualities which I acquire, my interests I came to know Engineering is not my cup of tea and made up my mind to go for BBA. So I consulted my parents and they asked me to think about this decision as I was in my 2
nd year of engineering. They were not against my decision but they showed me a better way by suggesting to go for MBA after completing my engineering. As I came to my 3
rd year I got 7 backlogs and to clear that backlog I need to pay the hefty amount which I cannot ask my parents and started working part-time job along with my engineering and surprisingly I cleared all backlogs in One attempt. The time period in between 3
rd to 4
th year was very challenging where I had to attempt CAT exam also get into one of the Prestigious B-school. I am proud that I made into IIM Raipur and I can see my bright future ahead.
