My journey inspired by ABG_IMI New Delhi

My journey inspired by ABG_IMI New Delhi

I have read this quotation, “Face reality as it is … not as you wish it to be.” – Jack Welch. This has always been the path I stick to in life. Beginning from school, I have always been a bit shy, a bit confused but nevertheless a joyful kid. I was good with academics but lacked confidence due to my introvert nature. I wanted to pursue engineering in graduation like most of kids of my generation. Unfortunately or fortunately, I don’t know, I couldn’t qualify the exam. One cannot (forget should not), stay with failures long. Start it again.

How ABGLP impacts my life- Swadheen Jain (IIM Rohtak)

Aditya Birla is one of the largest conglomerates in India, having its presence in more than 35 countries all around the globe. It is the company which has impacted us in all the walks of life. When I was a kid and my home was getting renovated, I came across a brand known Ultratech, my father has been a civil engineering and the trust he showed while choosing the brand, made me feel confident about that brand at that stage of life, it was the time, when I came to know about Aditya Birla group, then I learnt about its acquisition of L&T cement and found the acquisition interesting and luckily I got to see how a cement plant works.

Aditya Birla Group- The Definition of Versatility- Piyus Tripathy, XIMB

Aditya Birla Group, the name is itself a definition of class and faith. Starting from Non-Ferrous metals to Telecommunications and Apparel, Aditya Birla is a leading name. When I was a kid, for the first time, probably around 2006, I saw the advertisement of Ultratech Cement and the name Aditya Birla. I noticed a few bags of cement that read Ultratech Cement at a house that was under construction near my grandparent’s home. The next was when I saw my uncle’s suit cloth which read the name Grasim. ‘Aditya Birla’ was the owner’s name which my father told me. “Ek IDEA, jo badal de aapki duniya”- this became one of the most popular taglines and it was through the advertisements on Television and Newspaper that I came to know about its telecommunication ventures. Pantaloons was probably the second mall after Big Bazaar which I had visited in Bhubaneswar and a logo read ‘Aditya Birla’ and for the first time, I saw the brands such as Peter England, Louis Phillipe and Van Heusen. In a few years, these brands became our personal favourites. Birla Sun Life Insurance ads were the next and I was flabbergasted to see a company venturing into a variety of fields. Aditya Birla into education was another wow factor indeed. Not till B.Tech at VSSUT, Burla, I had heard the name of HINDALCO. With one of its plant at Hirakud, HINDALCO was then known to me and I was again stupefied to know that this too belonged to the Aditya Birla Group. Being the Placement Coordinator, I was the part of the team which oversaw hosting the recruiters from HINDALCO, Aditya Birla at VSSUT, Burla. The humongous amount of sustainable development and employment generation in India has been the achievements of the Aditya Birla group. Not only in India, but globally also this conglomerate is doing wonders. Wishing the company, a great luck for its future endeavours and waiting for even newer and fantastic ventures soon.
