Aditya Birla Group is not a company, it is a emotion which has connected so many people and changed the lives of so many people be it using the telecom services or the fashion company. The roots of the company are tightly holding the lives of the people now but the foundation of the company goes way back to 1857, which was laid by Shiv Narayan Birla in a small village.

Impact of Aditya Birla Group in my life

Impact of Aditya Birla Group in my life

According to Maslow’s Hierarchy Theory one of the most basic needs of a person is a shelter. When my parents decided to build our first home safety was the most important criteria for them. UltraTech Cement is the best when it comes to safety and so we chose it. Whenever I used to go there, I felt that I am at a safe place. When my parents gifted me my first mobile, the only thing they wanted was I answer the phone whenever they call me. So mobile network was the most important thing and so they chose Idea network for me because it had the best network connectivity and I could travel anywhere and my parents would not be scared because they knew that I was available whenever they wanted to talk to me because of the dependable network of Idea. Clothing is also one of the basic needs according to Maslow’s Hierarchy Theory and it is very important because many first impressions are made on the way you look. So, it is very important to dress properly and according to the occasion. Brands like Peter England, Louis Phillipe, Allen Solly and Van Heusen give you the comfort along with the looks. Pantaloons is the best when it comes to multi brand fashion retail chain as you get various options in different price ranges but when you buy from pantaloons you know that the one thing you can be sure about is whatever the money you spend to buy the clothes you are assured of the quality that is synonymous with Aditya Birla Group.

How ABG made a difference in my life, MDI Gurgaon

As a young kid who wished to look dapper every time I go out, fashion and retail was everything to me. I can distinctly remember my first visit to an ‘Allen Solly’ store. That could have been the weirdest version of me till date I would say, at any place. I guess my eyes popped out drooling over the ‘bestest’ of collections and I can proudly say that ‘Allen Solly’ was my first ever branded shirt. It was just the beginning. The day before joining college, I was in a Pantaloon store getting my wardrobe ready and you can imagine how much of it has been a part and parcel of my life.

Distances lose meaning with ABG by your side ..| MDI GURGAON

My life has been different from others since the very beginning it had been defined by my father’s job in Merchant Navy he used to stay overseas for extended periods of times and communication was extremely difficult, only when he was on ports and then to we could have only limited conversation because of the high prices charged, we used to communicate through letters and the brief scarce phone calls. Communication had such huge barriers. However since my mother changed her number to idea (now Vodafone idea Ltd.) we have been able to communicate very easily and for extended periods. Our lives have changed so drastically, now we feel that my father is just one phone call away, ABG has literally helped bring families closer. My father due to his absence for 6-8 months a year trusted the Aditya Birla Capital limited to invest money, he trusted them with all investments made through the portfolio management services provided by them. He knew our money would be handled with utmost care and caution keeping in mind our well-being. My father trusted Aditya Birla Group since the very beginning having utmost faith in the services they provide knowing that we were in good hands. This also enabled my father to invest in Aditya Birla Sun Life mutual fund after much research and deliberation. Since the very beginning my father has been very interest in finance and learnt a lot on his own reading researching, I have seen him take sound and calculated decisions in finance. This early introduction to taking smart, far sighted, calculated and well researched decisions by my father had me interested in finance. I knew I wanted to do an MBA very clearly while doing my graduation in economics. I prepared for CAT and in my first attempt I did not perform very well, it being a drop year that I took specifically for preparation due to being in a bad place and not proper planning I could not perform well, I got into mediocre colleges however I wished to study in one of the top 10 colleges of the country. I took a leap and decided to give CAT once again, this time I decided to take smart decisions and enrolled in a finance course with University of London International Programs while preparing once again this time with a completely different positive mind set. After preparing again, this time I did way better than before and prepared really well, I was finally able to get into MDI Gurgaon. I was thus faced with an impasse after my first attempt and could have given up and settled yet I decided to take the more difficult and a path with ups and down yet I was focused and decided to thread through the harder path. This year of hard work taught me a lot, I believe this year of difficulty taught me to not give up and approach life optimistically in a positive way, as I believe you are who you think you are . As rightly said by Henry Ford If you think you can do it or think you can’t do a thing, you’re right.
