Aditya Birla Group: A part and parcel of everyone's life

Aditya Birla Group: A part and parcel of everyone's life

Aditya Birla group is a conglomerate which had deeply impacted mine and millions other lives as well. The wide range of products they offer has touched everyone’s life at one point of time. Personally, talking about my life, both college and professional life it touched with ABG products. The clothing brands such as Peter England, Louis Philippe, Allen Solly, etc are part of my daily wardrobe. Even 2 hours before writing this article I was in a Van Heusen suit sitting in a seminar hall with a Managing director. Louis Phillipe & Allen Solly has come to my rescue be it on first day of college, a happening party or be it casual Friday in office. My house reminds of me of trust my family places in ABG and quality of its construction material as it is made of Ultratech cement and there are millions out there who trust ABG to provide safe and strong roof. ABG overtime has become synonymous to trust and supreme quality. ABG visions is not just stuck to retail, cements & manufacturing but it believes in providing education, medical services and assistance to students is what inspires me. A lot of initiative has been taken up as a part of CSR activity my ABG like Aditya Birla Scholarship, Aditya Birla World Academy, Aditya Birla Memorial Hospital etc impacting millions of lives. My most productive years and what I am today, credit goes to BITS Pilani, vision of Ghanshyam Das Birla. As I am done writing, I need to get back to work & I can see a peter England shirt lying in front to save my day

The main areas of focus are education (Aditya Bal Vidya Mandirs, Balwadis for elementary education), livelihood (4,500 self-help groups created with an overall view to empower women, partnership with industrial training institutes, vocational training through Aditya Birla Rural Technology Parks, watershed development), social change (dowry-less marriage, widow remarriage, DE-addiction programmer), Aditya Birla CSR Centre of Excellence and Aditya Birla Centre for Community Initiatives and Rural Development and performance management (developing plans for the development of the marginalized).Moving on to sustainability in the way they work, Novelis is the world’s largest recycler of used beverage cans and Idea Cellular launched the ‘Green Idea’ initiative with Aditya Birla Group aiming at reduction in carbon dioxide emission.

I also am a strong proponent of higher education, for it is a respectable way to rise out of poverty which is again a key focus area for the Aditya Birla Group.With such a strong vision to contribute to the country, the group has built a strong image of being a caring corporate citizen and thus, it has struck a chord with people of all socio-economic groups. Acting on an ethos of generosity and compassion is the cornerstone of their CSR policy which shall work in maintaining their brand image for many years to come.
