As I walk on the streets of Aligarh I feel lucky to be part of a country where a company started from the scratch is now the part of everyday life. Aditya Birla Group is one of the conglomerates of all the Indian conglomerates which have made a big impact not only in India but also on a worldwide stage. It has its presence in more than 35 countries with revenue over $44 billion in 2018. The main thing that I liked most about this company is its CSR activities and the product that fits in most of the aspect of day today life. Its CSR activities has huge impact on global scale, from the streets of Aligarh to the tea gardens of eastern India where machines like combine and tea leaf picker played and life changing role.
The Aditya Birla Group brand that touch my life is Aditya Birla Group’s cement (Ultratech cement) as Aditya Birla group is the holding company for Ultratech cement it has huge impact on Aditya Birla Group as well as the infra services in India.
Started from 2004 with the acquisition of Ultratech cement from L&T the word Ultratech cement passes my ears on the daily. As my father work in cements and paper industry we generally talk about the innovations and the new steps taken by Aditya Birla Group on our dining table. I still remember how Aditya Birla Group’s companies combine to launch a cement that is both durable and strong. I still remember how they use the chemical residue from paper industry as a catalyst to make cement better in all aspects which later used by many construction industry for durable and strong structures.
As an impact of above innovation they not only make this earth less polluted but also save a lot on the cost side and increasing the revenue by launching a new product.
Going forward with other offering of Aditya Birla Group and their role in the ever-changing scenery of Indian cities is not only prominent but also ever-present. In the digital world as the population become more connected the role of mobile phones take centre stage but in the absence of telecom connectivity provided by players like Vodafone-Idea it is just like dead weight. It also bring many international product in the reach of middle class by bringing foreign brands like Allen Solly and Peter England to the masses.
