Is Aditya Birla Group the one-stop shop? _Goa Institute of Management

It is difficult to think of a big brand or organisation and not try to associate it with the closest product/service you know. So as big as Aditya Birla Group is, the mention of its name brings to my mind two aspects of life very close to me – my investment and my attire !The investment part of it started with my first job at a bank wherein I got introduced to a diverse array of mutual funds, among other financial instruments. The research that ensued brought to fore the types and names of several mutual funds, with Birla Sun Life Mutual Fund being one of the top performers in a number of categories. It was no surprise then that it was a highly recommended fund across investment portfolios and ended up being the first equity fund I invested in myself. For a young woman, fresh out of the education system and into her first job, the emotions associated with this tiny investment decision taken independently, were manifold. As elated as she was ,she was also apprehensive – how closely should she follow the market now, what could be the actual returns scenario, what if the market goes for a toss tomorrow?! Standing in the present moment, I am glad to observe that I did not let my apprehensions get the better of me and I continue to be a loyal investor in that very fund. Again, as a then employee of the bank it was a fulfilling experience to have happy returning customers who had become my fellow investors !

 I would like to start by citing the recent change Aditya Birla Group has impacted with me with. It's the #filterthefuture campaign. This World Environment Day, Aditya Birla Group took a step towards cementing its commitment to sustainability by initiating conversations around our biggest fears about the environment, the air pollution. Aditya Birla Group has pledged to create artwork out of toxic air and to support the cause they have also planted over 1 million saplings across the group. The products by the group is being used by people for generations in the field of cement, fertilisers, financial services. Anything the people have ever needed, Aditya Birla Group has made it happen, be it the use of roads, living in buildings made by the biggest cement company in India. We name it, they do it.
