Aditya Birla – Strength Through Quality and Global Vision

Aditya Birla Group

Have you ever imagined what a 160-year-old company looks like? Not an old-fashioned, slow-moving relic, but a dynamic, creative, and forward-thinking giant. That’s Aditya Birla Group – a USD 66 billion multinational conglomerate, ranked in the Fortune 500, with operations in over 40 countries.

From a Cotton Shop to a Global Powerhouse

Aditya Birla Group Story - A leading business conglomerate in India

Founded in 1857 by Seth Shiv Narayan Birla, Aditya Birla Group has grown steadily from a humble cotton trading store into a global empire.

Today, the Group leads in multiple sectors:

  • World’s largest producer of rolled aluminum

  • 2nd largest viscose staple fiber producer globally

  • UltraTech Cement – Top 3 cement producer in the world (excluding China)

Over 50% of its revenue comes from international markets, with a workforce of 187,000 employees from over 100 nationalities.

The Group has also made strong footprints in the textile industry, supplying sustainable, eco-friendly viscose fiber.

Innovation – The Brain Behind the Growth

Under the leadership of Mr. Kumar Mangalam Birla, the Group has completed over 60 mergers and acquisitions, multiplying its revenue by 33 times during his tenure.

Aditya Birla also pioneers in aluminum recycling (over 84 billion cans recycled) and produces viscose from natural cellulose through Birla Cellulose.

Sustainability – The Green Heart of the Giant

For Aditya Birla, sustainability isn’t just a goal—it’s the foundation of its future:

  • 98.4 million m³ of rainwater harvested

  • 14.9 million tons of waste recycled

  • Committed to Net-Zero Carbon by 2050

From UltraTech Cement (achieving 5x water positivity) to Birla Carbon (100% water reuse), Aditya Birla proves that green actions are not just ideals—but tangible results.

People – The Soul of Every Action

Beyond numbers, Aditya Birla touches over 11 million lives in 9,000 villages through its community initiatives in education, healthcare, and agriculture, led by its Centre for Community Initiatives and Rural Development.
