“Great businesses are never built on the quick sands of opportunism. I reiterate that, if living by our values means, perhaps growing at a pace slower than we would otherwise have liked, so be it. For us, leadership lies at the heart of knowing what we stand for” said by Chairman of Aditya Birla Group Mr Kumar Mangalam Gupta A US based $44.3 billion corporation, the Aditya Birla Group is in the League of Fortune 500. Anchored by an extraordinary force of over 120,000 employees belonging to 42 nationalities, the Group is built on a strong foundation of stakeholder value creation. With over seven decades of responsible business practices, their businesses have grown into global powerhouses in a wide range of sectors – metals, textiles, carbon black, telecom and cement. Today, over 50% of Group revenues flow from overseas operations that span 34 countries in North and South America, Africa and Asia. I have some good experiences of using Aditya Birla group’s products and one of the product is of telecom sectors. Recently I went on a trek of kheerganga, Himachal Pradesh. The trek goes through the impenetrable equatorial forest then river and lastly deep in mountains, till we are all in the forest everyone’s got enough network in their cell phones so that they can contact whoever they want. but as we embarked on the mountains cutting through the rivers network started to vanish, As we reached to the pinnacle of the trek in our group only me and one of my friends cell sustained the network and which is of IDEA. so I’m very thankful of Idea for reaching out to us where all the networks crumbled, and because of you we were able to contact our family person and others.

Against All Odds-SCMHRD

The earthquake which struck Nepal was one of the most challenging moments in my life. Seeing everything turn into rubble and realizing that life could end at any moment scared me out of my wits. With no network, limited supplies and constant aftershocks, it was a horrifying experience. We requested my father to move out of the country for a while, but he refused claiming that he needed to serve the country and its people the same way it served him. This made me realize that there is so much one can do to help those in need, but only if one has the volition and altruism that is missing in today’s world of cut-throat competition and rapacity for profits. I learned to never give up in life no matter how hard the situation is and how important it is to give back to the society and country which has nurtured you into who you are today. It was then that I decided to apply to one of the premier institutions in India.

Something's that's everywhere!

Something's that's everywhere!

Coming from one of the biggest metropolitan cities in the world and being very brand conscious for almost every kind of purchase I make, I certainly cannot dream to have had a purchase interaction without buying or at least considering products by Aditya Birla Group. It’s practically everywhere!! Prior to pursuing my post graduation at IMI, New Delhi I was working at a top Investment Bank in Mumbai. To fit the role of an investment banker I would always keep my wardrobe updated with the newest trends in the formal section. I frequently visited Louis Philippe as the sheer fitting of its clothes would be perfect for me as if they were tailor made just for me. Some of the other brands I frequently visited to shop for formal clothes were Van Heusen, Ted Baker which also are brands by the Aditya Birla group and it is unbelievable to notice how wide their range of offerings are and is something you just cannot avoid while shopping for good quality and fashionable outfits. Even when my mother goes shopping she has the habit to take me along and I always notice that she invariably shops the maximum of her clothes from Pantaloons which provide her with good quality and in Vogue outfits.

Impact Of ABG in My life-SCMHRD

Impact Of ABG in My life-SCMHRD

Aditya Birla Group or ABG has touched millions of life in millions mays. When I look back to my childhood days where most of my fond memories revolve around the tiffin boxes we shared, that is when I first felt the presence of ABG in my life. My mother trusted nothing but FRESHWARS to wrap my lunch. To be honest, this business group was present at all stages in our lives and we hardly ever notice its impact. Idea Cellular network has provided me connectivity during my undergraduate course when I was trying to build a network with people all over the country. Pantaloons is what I have always relied on for quality clothing and even here the Aditya Birla Group never disappointed me as a customer. This year when I had to buy formal wears for B-School interviews, it was disheartening to see such few brand to offer choices to women. It was then that I found out that the two brands, ALLEN SOLLY and VAN HEUSEN that I am purchasing from also belongs to my most trusted Aditya Birla Group.  This company has also helped my family when the times were tough, Aditya Birla Sun Life mutual funds were a big support for my father, my family’s sole bread earner. His belief in the company stays strong till date.
