National, 01.10.2024 – MBD Group, a multifaceted organization with a global footprint, proudly commemorates its 68th Establishment Day. This significant milestone reflects decades of dedication, innovation, and excellence in the diversified sectors including education, hospitality, real estate, and many more sectors. Since its foundation in 1956 by the visionary founder of MBD Group Shri Ashok Kumar Malhotra, MBD Group has continuously evolved to meet the dynamic needs of education and all the diversified sectors it is in.

From humble beginnings, the company has risen to prominence, shaping the future of education and hospitality through an unwavering commitment to quality, technology, and social responsibility.

As part of our 68th Establishment Day celebrations, MBD Group proudly launched the ‘Life@MBD’ video, featuring heartfelt testimonials from employees across the country from its more than 62 offices in India as well as abroad. In this inspiring video, team members shared their love for MBD and reflected on their most cherished moments of working for the Group. Life @MBD beautifully highlighted our vibrant work culture, reinforcing our commitment to fostering an environment where the MBD team thrives not as employees but as an MBD family.

Mrs. Satish Bala Malhotra, Chairperson of MBD Group: “For 68 years, MBD Group has been driven by one mission: to empower individuals through education and our efforts towards social responsibility. We take great pride in our legacy and are committed to providing exceptional learning resources for future generations.

Our commitment to embracing emerging technologies is transforming education and making a positive impact on students worldwide”

The Ashok Malhotra Charitable Trust, the CSR division of MBD Group, launched its “Love to Learn” initiative last year, aimed at revolutionizing traditional classrooms through technology and creating endless possibilities for learners. This year, the initiative is advancing with the introduction of the new AASOKA Robotics & Coding Lab, equipped with robotic kits, state-of-the-art appliances, modern furnishings, and air-conditioned classrooms.

The AASOKA Robotics & Coding Lab will be a cornerstone for STEM education, offering students hands-on experiences that enhance their problem-solving and critical-thinking skills.

By integrating innovative technologies and modern methods, we foster curiosity, creativity, and critical thinking to shape a brighter future.

We also envision a transformative future for the hospitality and retail sectors. MBD House is poised to redefine industry standards with exceptional service and innovative design. With a strong commitment to sustainability and technology, we aim to establish MBD Group as a trailblazer, driving excellence and setting new benchmarks for quality and social responsibility across all operations.”

MBD Group is firmly committed to giving back to society. Over the years, the Group has undertaken numerous Corporate Social Responsibility (CSR) initiatives focused on empowering underprivileged communities and promoting environmental sustainability.

To mark this significant occasion, we organized a donation drive in Noida in collaboration with the Noida Deaf Society. We also invited kids from Father Agnel School, watched a movie with them & did a distribution drive. At MBD House, we went to Sacred Heart School – Khammam (Flood Relief) & supported the school children with course books for Class 1 to 5. In Ludhiana, the Ashok Malhotra Charitable Trust, in partnership with the Red Cross Society and Ek Vachan Welfare Society, hosted an event for 40 senior citizens from the Red Cross Old Age Home and many more such initiatives across India.

MBD Group’s 68th establishment day promises to be a day of celebration, reflection, and renewed commitment.
