Mr. Kastia started off with showing a small video on Aditya Birla Group and showed how Late Shri G. D. Birla contributed to the independence of the country and social upliftment of the masses. He told how in the late 80’s Shri Aditya Birla took over the reins of the company and started the business in South East Asia which was an open market. Thus, the group had the experience of operating in foreign markets as compared to other companies in the country which helped them the most during liberalization in 1991. In mid 90’s, Shri Kumar Mangalam Birla enthused the company with fresh ideas and outlook.
Mr. Kastia spoke of the company’s operation in more than 50 businesses and how it has divested in some of its businesses and exists in only those businesses where it holds leadership position. The company is also looking at expanding its businesses across the globe and is foraying into the services industry.
