Big is What Big Does - Ayush Bhargava, SIBM Pune

Big is What Big Does - Ayush Bhargava, SIBM Pune

“What is Big?” Aditya Birla group has always tried to define it their way. With over 10 major subsidiaries, ranging from metals, cement to branded apparel to financial services to telecom and IT services. For ABG, big is MASSIVE but big is also microscopic. The main aim is to express the company moving from ‘Being Big’ to creating and delivering ‘Big Value’ for its consumers and people at large. I have seen Birla Cement since I was a child and it has always been a household name. When mobile phones were in the starting to gain popularity, Idea emerged as a great service provider in the telecom industry. Now with Pantaloons as one of the emerging apparel department store, ABG is providing good quality clothing at very reasonable prices. After taking admission in MBA, students were supposed to get a minimum of three pairs of formals. VanHeusen and Loise Philippe were the saviours.

Right Mindset is inevitable

Till the time I graduated as an engineer from Pune University, I was never sure about what I want to do in my life. I was always a naughty kid in my life. I never focused on my studies. My only aim in my life was to pass to fulfil my dad’s dream. But once when I stepped into the harsh reality of life I understood the value education. I started to think on what I wanted to do in my life. And to be honest, I started to get frustrated after seeing my colleagues doing well. Apart from that, I used get a morning dose from my father. He always use to say that I am useless. Till then I came to a conclusion that I want to get into non-technical field. Then I started to prepare for CAT 2017. I worked hard and hard. I used to study 11 hours a day. I was really difficult for me to get into my groove. There was an emotion driving me to work harder. In the end I failed. When I saw the result I cried like hell. I went into depression for two weeks. But then I started preparing for cet. It was very hard to start and run again. But this time analysed the mistakes I did and started working on cet. For me it was the last chance, I had to do something. From my last mistake I understood, it’s not all about preparing hard for exam, it’s also about preparing your mind as well. I started to work on my mind.Harder than for my CET exam. I used give around 2 hours for meditation and pranayama. My brother used to laugh at me, when I used to perform pranayama. But it helped me, and I stood 61 rank in that exam. I got admitted to SIMSREE college, one of the premier institutions in western India.
