Independence Day 2025: Smart Charkhi hits market ahead of 15th August, uses smartphone…
With Independence Day 2025 just around the corner, the markets are buzzing with colourful kites and festive energy. This year, a new twist has been added to the age-old tradition of kite flying, the smart charkhi, a motorised winch that makes controlling your kite easier than ever. It uses a Type-C charging port, allowing users to charge it with the same cable they use for their smartphones. (BablaKites) What is a Smart Charkhi? In an age where everything from watches to TVs has turned 'smart', kite flying equipment has now joined the list. The smart charkhi, also called a motorised charkhi or firkhhi, is equipped with a rechargeable motor system that automatically winds the kite string at the press of a button. Mobile Finder: iPhone 17 Air expected to launch in India next month It uses a Type-C charging port, allowing users to charge it with the same cable they use for their smartphones. This innovation is particularly useful for solo kite flyers who no longer need a partner to help wind the string. How it works The charkhi's motor is activated through a button located on the handle. Once pressed, the string winds up automatically, enabling one-handed operation. This makes it easier to control the kite during competitions or long flying sessions. Charging is straightforward, plug in a Type-C cable, and the device is ready in about 1.5 to 2 hours. Battery life and performance On a single charge, the smart charkhi can run for 8 to 10 continuous hours, which translates to two to three days of regular kite flying. The high-quality motor is built for durability, and its battery can be replaced easily, ensuring a longer lifespan for the product. Price and availability The smart charkhi is available both online and offline, with prices starting around ₹2,000. As a reusable and Made-in-India product, it offers good value for kite enthusiasts who fly regularly during festivals like Makar Sankranti and Independence Day. With its combination of traditional fun and modern convenience, the smart charkhi is set to be a popular pick this festive season.

Firms pump Rs 1,200cr: Bid that won PPP project for 12 Earth Observation satellites quoted Rs 0; Pixxel-led team wins deal
BENGALURU: In what's unprecedented, the L1 quotation (lowest bid) by a consortium that won a project for 12 Earth Observation (EO) satellites - implemented as a PPP by IN-SPACe - is 0 (zero rupees). The consortium comprising Pixxel, PierSight, SatSure, and Dhruva, which will bear the financial cost of the project, will invest more than 1,200 crore in the next four-five years on this. Pawan Goenka, chairman of IN-SPACe, told TOI in a one-on-one interaction: "Obviously this was a competitive bid and each of the bidders would have evaluated the value of the opportunity to build this constellation. In the judgment of the winning bidder, they decided that even if they don't get any money from the govt, it is important for them to get this opportunity to develop it and, therefore, they see a good financial opportunity in this constellation. " You Can Also Check: Bengaluru AQI | Weather in Bengaluru | Bank Holidays in Bengaluru | Public Holidays in Bengaluru | Gold Rates Today in Bengaluru | Silver Rates Today in Bengaluru Terming it a very big endorsement of how the private sector sees the future of space economy in India, he said: "... for a consortium to come forward and commit to invest more than 1,200 crore of their own money with a full expectation, obviously, that they will more than recover their investment over a period of time. So, I think it's very, very positive news that the winning bidder has bid only zero." As reported by TOI on Wednesday, the constellation of 12 satellites will feature a mix of sub-metre very high-resolution, wide-swath multispectral, synthetic aperture radar (SAR), and hyperspectral satellites, enabling applications like precision agriculture, water quality monitoring, land-use mapping, environmental compliance, disaster assessment, maritime operations, national security, and infrastructure development. by Taboola by Taboola Sponsored Links Sponsored Links Promoted Links Promoted Links You May Like 15 Most Beautiful Women Ever Today's NYC Undo The project will be implemented through a special purpose vehicle (SPV). "We have a time limit of 90 days for signing the agreement starting yesterday. Hopefully, we sign much before that. As per the RFP, the lead player must have at least 26% ownership and each consortium member at least 10%. It will be a legal entity formed with well-defined roles for each of the four members," he said. Stay updated with the latest local news from your city on Times of India (TOI).
