Aditya Birla Group is the first Indian global company. It has its presence in various sectors, few of them being the financial services, apparels and fashion, telecom and cement sector. With its strong employee and network base, it has managed to mark its existence globally.
In my entire life, I have been connected to the company in some way or the other. Be it shopping in Pantaloons or Forever 21, seeing UltraTech Cement being used for construction, being a loyal Vodafone customer or beginning my MBA journey with Allen Solly formals, the company has always been a part of me. Coming to Aditya Birla Capital, it is one of the most trusted companies when it comes to imparting expertise in the spheres of protecting, investing, financing and advicing on monetary matters. My father is a very satisfied customer of the company and is extremely happy to be receiving the effortless services of it. It has also managed to be technologically updated. In this era, it knows the importance of digitization and hence it launched BHIM ABPB UPI, an online way of banking and making life easy for everyone.
“Our values provide us with our roots and they provide us with our wings”. The company has indeed kept in line with its values, flown to great heights and flourished.
Growing up in a typical Marwari family, I hadn’t been much exposed to the real world. I have always been a part of a closed knit family. In 22 years of my life, I stepped out of Kolkata for the first time and came to IMT Ghaziabad to become an MBA. After coming here I realized that it is not easy to stay away from your family, at least in the beginning.
I had been preparing to come to IMT since a month before the course started but it was after I entered IMT that it hit me that I will not have my family and friends constantly by my side and I will only get to meet them virtually. Coming to a completely new city, leaving my home and building a new one is one of challenges I faced.
Having spent over a month in this eminent institute and having conversations with such a diverse group of people, I realized that there are so many challenges faced by others and how they overcame them. This gave me the courage to do the same. In this competitive world, even Aditya Birla Group as a company faces so many challenges like logistics, reducing plastic use, etc but the company takes on those challenges, creating innovative ideas to solve them and thus becoming more efficient.
I try to overcome the problems I face each day with this spirit of determination portrayed by ABG and come out as a stronger person every time.
