Being 3rd largest private conglomerate in India and having its presence in multiple sectors, its no wonder all most everyone in India would have come across their products at some point in their life. My first encounter with the ABG was in the form of their trusted cement, I remember my dad having a discussion about which cement to use to for building our home, and my dad being a typical Indian who expects quality at a reasonable price went for the UltraTech cement. From there on my liaison with ABG has been majorly with the fashion division, what with Peter England, Louis Philippe and pantaloons being a no brainer for my family's festive shopping. The latest addition to the places to shop, what with the formals for the MBA and the conscious decision to buy an Indian brand Van Heusen was what I found to be the perfect fit for me and thus continues my journey with ABG.

 Being the first girl in my family to do a master’s degree that to in a city(Mumbai) which is far off from my home(Chennai) at least to my family who are skeptical about sending their children away from their home all alone. My journey in life has so far been adventurous what with venturing the “unknown”. But that is what life is about I was successful in convincing my family in pursuing my masters which will help me in being an independent career woman with a sea of opportunities in front of me. I have no idea what the future holds but at least I have taken the step to put myself out in the world, enjoy the new experience, live the life one day at a time. But that’s not all, the ultimate satisfaction was when I got to know that I have inspired my cousins to move out of their comfort zone and to never settle till they reach their goal.
