Aditya Birla Group is a conglomerate and a household name for most of us today. From being one of the first ones to create establishments in the textile industry during the License Raj, to having so many of their group firms listed as Fortune 500 companies, Aditya Birla Group has developed beautifully and exponentially since independence.

Building the nation with ABG

Ever since I was a little kid, I’ve been awestruck with the colourful and innovative multitudes of products decorating the shelves of the shops across the market alleys. Admittedly, I was, at that time, too young to fully appreciate my good fortune of living at a time when India was reaping the benefits of liberalization and the massive development of the hardware of the country, i.e. the roads, ports and industrial buildings were taking place. I marvelled the giant buildings sprawling through the cities and always wondered how such structures could be so tall and yet so strong. I was told that it was the cement that keeps the building bound together and makes them so strong. I still remember watching the advertisements of “Ultratech Cement” on televisions and feel a sense of pride development in India is taking place at a rapid pace.

When I first think of “Why Aditya Birla Group is big in my life”, I think yeah I know this company, it’s in cement industry and I sometimes buy cloth from Pantaloons who give good discounts sometimes and clothes are also good and what else it can be. But when I look on the internet and researched more about “How it could be big in my life” I found out so many surprising things that find its significant presence in my life.

No! This is just not done! That was my response when a friend of mine suggested John Miller clothes as I was packing for my journey to the B-school of my dreams. “For me it’s Van Heusen, Period. End of discussion.” I blurted out. There was no discussion afterwards. The brand Van Heusen exudes confidence. Nothing else can work for me. Nothing else can woo me. Aditya Birla Group is big in my life not just for this one instance. Aditya Birla Group has its contribution even in what we eat. Its fertilizers and chemicals division have indirectly touched our lives in innumerable ways. Those highly anticipated trips to Pantaloons during Diwali and Eid time for new clothes have molded our lifestyle and our way of life. For me, Aditya Birla Group is more than just a conglomerate. Our lives are twined closely with products that have been directly or indirectly linked to Aditya Birla Group of Industries. So, it is not the question of how big Aditya Birla Group is in our life, it is how deeply and in so complex ways it has impacted our lives. With the fast paced growth and legacy of Aditya Birla Group, it is everything a corporate of future would look like.

From my school tiffin to my coffee dates, from my drinks to the comfort of a strong house, from my b-school interviews to my music band performances Aditya Birla Group has been there all the time since my childhood. I think there is rarely a day in my life when I’m not using a product made by Aditya Birla Group. I remember my mother giving me tiffin with chapatis packed in Hindalco Freshwrapp.The Aditya Birla Group Fashion brands Pantaloons, Forever 21 made me look fairly awesome to impress the girls on coffee dates and on normal days as well, I guess.The UltraTech cement still holding my home strong even after 20 years back in Dehradun, Uttarakhand. Grasim, Louis Phillippe, Van Heusen, Peter England, making me “look” smarter and more gentlemanly than I will ever be. There is an essence of Aditya Birla Group every day. And this is why I have huge respect for this conglomerate because it provides a diverse set of products and services which we as customers have so much inclination towards. And the relationship is getting stronger day by day, morally and emotionally. And therefore, I admit, that yes Aditya Birla Group is big in my life and I’m sure in many lives across the world as well.
