Lava Agni 4 to launch in India soon; Key specifications and pricing tipped online
The Lava Agni 4 is likely to come with the MediaTek Dimensity 8350 processor, an upgrade from the Dimensity 7300X chip used in the Agni 3. Reports suggest the Agni 4 will have a 6.78-inch full-HD+ display with a 120Hz refresh rate. The device may include dual 50MP rear cameras arranged horizontally in a pill-shaped camera module with an LED flash between the lenses. This setup contrasts with the triple rear camera system found on the Lava Agni 3.
On the other hand, a leaked render shared by tipster Yogesh Brar, suggests that the Lava Agni 4 will feature a metal frame and a white back panel. Unlike the Agni 3's curved edges, the new model might have flat edges. The power and volume buttons could be located on the right side. Notably, the mini AMOLED display on the back of the Agni 3 is missing in the new design, which marks a shift in the device's features.
Furthermore, the device is expected to include UFS 4.0 storage to give users a faster data transfer. It may also pack a large 7,000mAh battery, which could offer extended usage without frequent charging.
According to a 91Mobiles report, the Agni 4 will retail in India for around Rs. 25,000. This price is higher than the starting price of the Lava Agni 3, which was Rs. 20,999 for the base model with 8GB RAM and 128GB storage. The 256GB Agni 3 variant with a charger was priced at Rs. 24,999. The increase in price is likely due to the upgraded processor and other new features.
However, Lava has not yet announced the official launch date, pricing, or availability details for the Agni 4. The company has also not confirmed the distribution channels for the upcoming smartphone. Consumers interested in the Lava Agni 4 will need to wait for an official statement from the company for detailed information.

Rare earth supply risk: Indian electronics firms worried as Chinese curbs may hit; but can Beijing also afford this?
This is an AI-generated image, used for representational purposes only. A number of applicants under India's Electronics Component Manufacturing Scheme (ECMS) have flagged concerns over meeting their first-year production targets due to ongoing shortages of rare earth minerals. According to ET, at least 10 companies have raised the issue with the ministry of electronics and information technology (MeitY), warning that if the shortage continues for another six months, they may not be able to meet the incentive-linked thresholds. The rare earth scarcity stems from export restrictions imposed by China, which controls more than 90% of global rare earth processing. China introduced special licensing requirements for seven rare earth elements and associated magnets from April 4 this year, leading to supply disruptions across key industries. These include electronics, automobiles, and clean energy technologies. "Companies have expressed concern, but within the sector, it isn't an alarming outcry," an official aware of the matter was quoted as saying by ET. 'If there is a component that uses rare earth, instead of importing that rare earth and making that component in India, they will simply import that component.' While firms are exploring alternatives, such as sourcing from different suppliers or shifting to rare-earth-free technologies, the timing has been challenging, particularly for those scaling up manufacturing for exports. 'The ECMS has been unveiled at a time when many entities want to scale up and take advantage of exports,' said Ashok Chandak, president of the India Electronics and Semiconductor Association (IESA), as quoted by ET. He added that supply shocks in rare earth magnets have hit the sector hard. The Rs 22,919 crore ECMS, launched in May, seeks to build a robust domestic ecosystem for electronic components like multi-layer PCBs, lithium-ion cells, resistors, capacitors, display and camera modules. PCBs have attracted particular attention from applicants, according to KS Babu, secretary of the Indian Printed Circuit Association (IPCA), who noted that the scheme addresses both multi-layer and high-density interconnect boards. However, he also pointed out that local production of key inputs like copper-clad laminates is still missing. 'Chinese suppliers are now taking advantage by squeezing prices, citing problems with shipments,' Babu said, as per ET. The scheme, effective from FY26 through FY32, includes a one-year gestation period. However, manufacturers, particularly MSMEs, have sought quicker access to incentives to recover their investments. A Delhi-based PCB maker was cited by ET saying that the government has informally assured leniency during the verification and claims process. Responding to industry requests, MeitY will extend the ECMS application window beyond July 31, as confirmed by officials. Many small firms are still finalising their sourcing channels, joint ventures, and tech partnerships. In a written reply to the Rajya Sabha, minister of state for commerce and industry Jitin Prasada noted that the export restrictions on rare earth magnets have led to supply chain bottlenecks for auto and electronics sectors. However, the ministry has not received specific reports of cost escalation or project delays from industry hubs in Maharashtra, as per news agency PTI. Despite the disruption, industry leaders remain hopeful. 'China also can't afford to continue an export ban for long, since their companies will begin bleeding and it will place a long term strain on their relations with many countries,' Chandak said, as per ET.

This man is earning Rs 43227900000 daily, much richer than Mukesh Ambani, Adani, will he beat Musk as world's richest man? His name is...
(File) Tesla CEO Elon Musk is the richest person in the world with a net worth of $362 billion as of July 26, 2025, according to Bloomberg Billionaires Index. However, the tech mogul faces a serious challenger to his coveted throne from a close personal friend, Larry Ellison, the the co-founder of Oracle whose wealth has surged by whopping a $500 million (about Rs 4322.79 crore) per day over the past one year. How Larry Ellison could dethrone Elon Musk as world's richest man? According to Bloomberg Billionaires Index, Elon Musk's net worth has dipped to $362 billion, while that of Larry Ellison has surged to $296 billion, making him the second wealthiest individual on the planet. Ellison net worth has grown by a staggering $104 billion in last 12 months, including earning a $28.4 billion in a single day earlier this week. Musk's lead over Ellison has shrunk to just $66 billion, which may seem like a lot, but considering the rate at which the Oracle founder is adding to his wealth, he could potentially overtake the SpaceX boss within weeks, if not days, if his golden run continues. Notably, Ellison added another $2.89 billion to his wealth on Friday, taking his net worth to $296, just four billion short of the elusive $300 billion club. Who is Larry Ellison? Larry Ellison is the co-founder of US multinational tech giant Oracle Corporation. The 80-year-old owns 41 percent stake in the company, and his wealth has exponentially increased due to a recent surge in Oracle's stock prices. In June, Ellison's wealth surged by a whopping $41 billion in just two days, including $25 billion in a single day, as per Bloomberg. Larry Ellison co-founded Oracle in 1977 as a database software company, and over the years, the firm has transformed into a global cloud computing powerhouse. Ellison, 80, currently serves at the Chairman and CTO at Oracle. Interestingly, Larry Ellison is a close friend of Elon Musk, and a major investor in Tesla, having previously served on the company's board December 2018 to August 2022. 'I don't know how many people know this… but I am a close friend of Elon Musk and a big investor in Tesla,' Ellison revealed in a 2018 interview. The Oracle boss has also come to Musk's defense during several controversies involving the world's richest man.
