The 18-year-old top rated seller

Challenges bring the best out of you. I stepped into the formal business when I was 18. I started selling seasonal products on eCommerce platform eBay and offered single day dispatch. I was a very young seller with limited product mix in my inventory. As I was a new seller, I had to pay hefty amounts for packaging and shipping of my products as the e-commerce platform would offer free shipping only when a selling threshold is reached by the seller.

Aditya Birla Group is a conglomerate which has its presence across various diverse sectors covering everything from clothing, textile, metals, cement, viscose and what not. It is the third-largest Indian private sector conglomerate behind Tata Group and Reliance Industries. My life has been impacted a lot by Aditya Birla Group life of every other Indian. Talking particularly about HINDALCO Industries Limited, it has played a vital role in my life. There’s a factory of HINDALCO in Muri, Jharkhand. The factory is not more than 13 kilometers from my home. From schooling to working in corporate, HINDALCO has been there.

How Aditya Birla has Impacted my Life/ How I overcame challenges to achieve my ambitions

 Aditya Birla Group is one that impacts nearly every domain in the market today. For me, Vodafone Idea Lmt. has greatly impacted my life. It is the first cellular service I have ever used and remains the most trusted for me in this domain. Despite Jio's insurgence into the market with its unique and attention stealing product, Idea has managed to hold its own in the market. Personally I feel the reason behind their survival and comeback into the market is the level of trust that they have or managed to acquire over the years with their large consumer base, which Jio, or any other brand for that matter could never hope to compete with. As a service, Idea has never let me down. Compared to the other networks I have utilized, Idea has the most coverage, customer service and a very good and user friendly online platform. I also have a keen interest in Corporate Social Responsibilities taken up by Aditya Birla Group. From working with over 5,000 villages for their betterment to providing over 450,000 soar lamps to school children, they have indeed done a lot of work for the community. Both my parents are working professionals in the medical field and because of this I am particularly familiar with their work in the setting up of over 5000 medical camps and their contributions to the operations of over 20 hospitals. To conclude, I believe Aditya Birla Group has touched  the lives of many many Indians, including myself, and will continue to do so in future.

To the One who Stood By

Hailing from the beautiful white desert of Kutch, from the small lively town of Bhuj, I first became aware of Aditya Birla Group during 2001, earthquake of Gujarat as my town was the epicenter for the earthquake. Stranded on roads from rich to poor, all of us saw the rise of Gujrat Ambuja Cement Ltd. now known as Ambuja Cement Ltd. in our small town. Bags and bags of cement being unloaded to reconstruct the city of fallen men, for the reconstruction of the General Hospital of Bhuj which was the need of the hour. We’ve all used brands by Aditya Birla Group during the sweet golden spring of our lives from Allen Solly to Peter England, shopping at pantaloons to having a brunch of lemon tarts enhanced by Delice, but I have had the chance to experience the products and the company at the time of adversity. Stating facts Aditya Birla Group is engaged in the manufacture of rayon, cement, copper, and cellulose in Gujarat. The Aditya Birla Centre for Community Initiative and Rural Development has always provided headstrong assistance for the development of Gujarat. But the most striking encounter we the people of Kutch had was when Rajshree Birla Ma’am spearheaded a rehabilitation plan of Rs.100 crores direct donation and support to the people struck by the wrath of Nature. It was the support and assistance of Aditya Birla Group just like the resilient feature of UltraTech Cement that stood by in the rehabilitation of the district of Kutch. We often forget the people who stand by us during our good times but we never forget those who stood by us during the hour of need and Aditya Birla is that company for we the people of Kutch. Quoting the figures of the last Vibrant Gujarat Summit 2019 which I had visited Aditya Birla Group has planned to invest Rs. 15000 crore over the next three years in various business segments ranging from textiles and chemicals to mining and minerals with Gracism being the center of all.
