Meet India's richest actress, last hit was over 10 years ago, still has net worth of Rs 4600 crore, her name is Juhi Chawla
The world of Bollywood cinema has witnessed several actors and actresses making their debut. While many of them shine, others fade away quickly. However, have you ever heard that despite giving a hit almost a decade earlier, an actress remains at the top of the list as India's richest actress? If not, then keep scrolling to know about this star. Who Is India's Richest Actress? In 2024, a fresh edition of the Hurun India Rich List was made public, which featured the names of renowned and wealthy individuals in India. From Ambani to Adani, the list had various names. When it came to India's richest actress, the list featured a name no one would have ever thought of. Many might think it's Aishwarya Rai Bachchan, Priyanka Chopra, Deepika Padukone, or Alia Bhatt. However, to everyone's surprise, the reports indicate that India's richest actress is Juhi Chawla. What Is Juhi Chawla's Net Worth? As per the list, Juhi Chawla's net worth is Rs. 4,600 crores, making her the richest actress in India and one of the wealthiest women in the world. How Did Juhi Chawla Become India's Richest Actress? During the 90s era, Juhi Chawla proved her mettle in Bollywood. Her performances were loved by the audience. Over her three-decade career, Juhi gave several superhit films, including Yes Boss, Jhankaar Beats, Salaam-E-Ishq, and others. In the 2000s, Juhi shifted her focus from acting to production and supporting roles. She also partnered with Shah Rukh Khan in film production, first through Dreams Unlimited and later with Red Chillies Entertainment. A major reason behind Juhi becoming India's richest actress is her investment in Red Chillies Entertainment and her co-ownership of the Knight Riders cricket franchise. With such a massive net worth, Juhi has left behind actresses like Aishwarya Rai, Priyanka Chopra, Alia Bhatt, Deepika Padukone, and Katrina Kaif.

Govt to come up with norms for 27 pc ethanol blending in petrol by Aug end
'India has already achieved its target of 20 per cent ethanol blending. In Brazil, the ethanol blend in gasoline is 27 per cent,' Gadari said while addressing an event here. Prime Minister Narendra Modi had launched the higher 20 per cent ethanol-blended petrol in 2023. New Delhi, Jul 24 (PTI) The government will come up with norms for 27 per cent ethanol blending in petrol by the end of August, Union Minister Nitin Gadkari said on Thursday. Currently, automobile engines can run on E20 with minor modifications in engines for corrosion, etc. 'Presently, India does not have standard norms for the E27 fuel…the norms for E27 will be finalised before August end,' the road transport and highways minister said. India is 85 per cent dependent on imports for meeting its oil needs. 'We import fossil fuels worth Rs 22 lakh crore, which is also causing pollution… so diversifying agriculture towards the energy and power sector is the need of the hour,' he said. Gadkari said 11 automobile companies have manufactured vehicles which run on flex-fuel engines. 'India is food surplus and there is a need to protect the interests of farmers,' he added. Use of ethanol, extracted from sugarcane as well as broken rice and other agri produce, will help India — the world's third largest oil consumer — bring down its reliance on overseas shipments. The target of achieving an average 10 per cent blending was achieved in June 2022, much ahead of the target date of November 2022. PTI BKS BKS MR This report is auto-generated from PTI news service.

Govt gets investment proposal worth Rs 16,000 cr under electronic component scheme
'Received proposals worth around Rs 16,000 crore under ECMS,' an official source said. The government had opened applications for the Rs 22,805-crore electronics component manufacturing scheme (ECMS) on May 1. New Delhi, Jul 24 (PTI) The government is learnt to have attracted investment proposals worth Rs 16,000 crore under the Electronics Component Manufacturing Scheme, according to sources. An industry body also confirmed the development, based on its discussion with government officials and industry players. According to the government source, the approval process has started and shortlisted projects are expected to be announced in September. 'The scheme has received a good response from both domestic and foreign companies,' the source said. Sources had earlier mentioned that Tata Electronics, Dixon Technologies, and Foxconn were among the big players that have shown interest in the scheme. Recently, Dixon signed separate agreements with Chinese electronic component firms — Chongqing Yuhai Precision Manufacturing Co Ltd and the Indian arm of Kunshan Q Technology — for manufacturing and sales of electronic components used in electronic devices like mobile phones and laptops, among others. The scheme aims to address the demand-supply deficit in the electronic component segment. Electronic Industries Association of India (Elcina), the country's oldest industry body of the Indian electronics sector, estimates that the demand-supply deficit for inputs in the electronics segment will increase to USD 248 billion (about Rs 21 lakh crore) by 2030 to cater to projected USD 500 billion electronics production, and it would be met largely by imports in absence of any measure from the government. The major portion of the scheme, Rs 21,093 crore, is earmarked for sub-assemblies like camera module, multi-layered printed circuit board (PCB), flexible PCB, and passive components that are fixed on the PCB by machines. A total of Rs 1,712 crore has been earmarked for making parts used in sub-assemblies and capital goods used in electronics manufacturing. The scheme classifies display module and camera module sub-assembly in category A, while category B products include bare components like non-surface mount devices (non-SMD), multi-layered printed circuit board, lithium-ion cells for digital applications, enclosures for mobile, IT hardware products and related devices. Category C includes components like flexible PCB, SMD passive components. Besides, components used in making items listed under A, B and C categories, as well as capital goods used in electronics manufacturing, have been clubbed under the D category. The government has opened the application window for A, B and C categories initially for three months starting May 1, and for two years for D category items.
