It was a breezy evening and I had just returned from my MBA preparation classes when my parents told me about my grandparents moving in with us since they were not keeping well and needed support. We decided to sell our house in Agra and build a new one in Noida. We contacted Aditya Birla Housing Finance’s executive and he offered the complete range of housing finance solutions. Through its lending solutions, ABHFL enabled us to own our dream home. As a welcome gift, I decided to buy something for my parents. So, me and my brother went to the nearby Pantaloons store, one-stop solution for all the fashion needs. We bought a kurta for my grandmother and a shirt from Louis Phillipe for my grandfather. While leaving the store, the Forever21 store caught my eye and picked up a few clothes for myself too. As I was about to make the payment, we ran out of cash. First I thought of not buying those clothes but my brother came to my rescue and made the payment thru Aditya Birla Idea Payments Bank Bhim Wallet. Happy and cheerful, we went back home. My father and I went to inspect the progress of our new house which was on the verge of completion. It came out just like I had dreamt of and felt very strong and secure. I could see the workers using UltraTech cement and its tagline “The Engineer’s Choice” played in my mind.  On the day of puja for our new house, my grandmother wore the same saree I had gifted her. She looked pretty in it and we got a nice family picture clicked. The same day my IIFT result was declared and I was selected for their MBA(IB) program. My family was delighted and my grandparents gave me their wishes for a bright future.

The days went by and we had settled comfortably in our new home. But as the winters approached, it became difficult for my grandparents to manage as they were old and could not bear the chilling Delhi weather. One day, my grandmother got very ill and was unable to breath properly. Seeing her condition, all of us got scared and we rushed her to the hospital. The doctor admitted her and put her on oxygen support. My grandmother had a health insurance policy from Aditya Birla Health Insurance Limited. The hospital informed them and their executives contacted my father within hours. They verified the condition and documents and took care of the finance of the hospital.

After 3 days, my grandmother had recovered and was discharged from the hospital. We brought her home and I bought a few sweaters for her from Pantaloons. Within few days she was fit and fine. It was such a relief for all of us. Aditya Birla Health Insurance Limited had taken care of not only the hospital expenses but also the post-discharge care and expenses of tests and medicines. After all the tension at my home it was time for some celebration.

It was my birthday the next day. At midnight, my parents decorated my room and surprised me with cake and gifts. My brother got me a Ralph Lauren bag from the Collective and my parents got me a beautiful dress from Forever21. I was so excited and happy to have such a loving and caring family. And in the end, I captured the castle of challenges!
