After giving CAT and getting admission in your dream B-school, what is the first thing all of us will think or do? Start some management courses? Start studying accounts and stats? I think for most of us, one of the most important things to do was to buy new business formals, ties, suits and shoes. Pantaloons was the destination for me to buy all these along with casuals as it is the one stop solution for all our needs in terms of clothing.
Aditya Birla Group is one of India’s largest private sector conglomerate. Founded under the vision of Seth Shiv Narayan Birla in 1857, Aditya Birla Group has spread its wing across all major sectors throughout its journey. Operating in about 35 countries and with a family of nearly 120,000, Aditya Birla Group has been able to establish itself in major sectors ranging from fashion to telecommunication to life insurance and much more.
The history of Aditya Birla Group goes back to almost a century before India’s independence from colonial rule. Its past is inextricably tied to India’s quest for independence. It all started with Shiv Narayan Birla who started cotton trading in Pilani, Rajasthan in 1857.
It all started in the small town of Pilani, Rajasthan when Seth Shiv Narayan Birla took the decision to venture out of Rajasthan to make a name for himself. That was the decision which has spiraled out to the creation of one of the most successful business houses in the world, The Aditya Birla Group. We can’t help but notice the impact which this business house has created in the lives of people, directly or indirectly. Us, being the fortunate ones, always had access to the televisions, on which we often saw the TV commercial of Ultra tech cement, Orient Electrics, Century textiles, all of them are market leaders in their respective fields and I am sure that we prefer these brands when the need strikes. We shop in malls and prefer retail outlets such as Pantaloons, an obvious choice as suggested by their sales rate of one item in every 3 seconds. As millennial's, we prefer to buy premium products at ordinary prices, which is where brands like Allen Solly, Peter England & Louis Philippe comes in. All These Brands are just the tip of the iceberg when it comes to the offerings of The Aditya Birla Group.
Aditya Birla group is a 44.3 billion USD Indian conglomerate operating in other countries as well. It is headquartered in Mumbai, India. It operates is businesses in 35 countries employing more than 120000 people worldwide. In the year 1857, Seth Shiv Narayan Birla founded the firm. The group is active in 14 different industry sectors. It is well known for its global and national leadership in several of its businesses. Almost every product that is required for a normal person is developed by the group: from staple fibres, metals which is essential to the industries to the high quality and rustproof Ultra tech cement, to the luxurious branded apparels which is essential to the public. Chemicals, fertilizers, which are essential for farming activities, telecom, BPO, financial services, which are important for the ongoing businesses and what not. I am an ardent lover of its fashion brands: VanHeusen, Pantaloons, Skult, tedBaker, Hackett, Peter England etc. These brands come under Aditya Birla Fashion and Retail Limited (ABFRL) company. Due to its products enhancing the customer experience, It has around 22 million loyalty members as of March 2018. Moreover, the company has shown a stellar performance financially in the past years. Aditya Birla Fashion and Retail has posted a strong performance in the fourth quarter in the year 2019 despite tough market conditions. Annual Sales has risen by 9%. Profit After Tax has grown by 79. This shows how much the company’s products appeal to the people. My family has been continuously investing in mutual funds. One of them is Aditya Birla Sun Life Front line Equity Fund, Regular Plan( Growth). This particular Mutual Fund is very close to our hearts as it has been constantly helping us with respect to the returns it generates. It is a Large Cap fund It comes from the fund house named Aditya Birla Sun Life Mutual Fund. It has a low expense ratio of 1.79% which is very low as compared to its peers. This fund has generated 256% return on the amount invested a decade back. Not once we have suffered loss with this Fund. Now whenever a stranger asks about the name of fund where they should invest to, we tell them to go with this fund with our eyes closed. Almost all the buildings in our colony have been made up using Ultratech Cement. Nobody has ever experience leakage related issues since the year 2002 during which it was built. We feel safe inside our houses from earthquakes.
Aditya Birla Group carries the legacy of India. With a wide portfolio ranging from clothing to chemicals to metals, Aditya Birla Group as a conglomerate has helped build and define India over the past 162 years. There are so many brands belonging to ABG that have a direct and indirect impact on all of our lives. Most of the products that we use have some part of ABG attached to them. Products manufactured by ABG such as plastics, tires, rubber products, paints have a direct bearing on our lives, in all the products we use to sustain and enrich our lives. The fashion brands under Aditya Birla Group like Louis Philippe, Allen Solly and American Eagle have a particularly important role in my life. I really enjoy the feel of well-tailored formal clothing from Loise Philippe, while the shoes from Allen Solly have helped on many an occasion, be it formal, casual or sports. The feel of American Eagle, the quality of clothing just has an indescribable touch to it. Many of the daily cosmetics and chemicals that we use are derived from the core products manufactured by ABG, and they will continue to influence our lives. Peroxide, which is manufactured by one of the joint ventures of ABG has huge applications in the manufacturing of pharmaceuticals. The core business of ABG, Hindalco has helped in creating a comfortable consumer life, helping manufacturing so many products that we use that contain Aluminium and Copper. I believe ABG already plays a huge role in each of our lives and will play an even bigger role in the future.
