In a significant step towards its goal of producing chips domestically, Indian audio brand boAt has teamed up with semiconductor startup HrdWyr to codevelop the Indus 1011 chip. The chip, which was completely designed in India, will power boAts nextgeneration premium TWS charging cases and has smart battery management. A totally local production cycle will be completed by Tata Electronics, which will also handle testing, packaging, and assembly. The partnership helps the Make in India and Atmanirbhar Bharat objectives while moving away from foreign chipset vendors. While boAt offered consumer insights, HrdWyr contributed new intellectual property centred on lowpower, highperformance design. Leaders in the industry praise the project as a prototype for upcoming brandtech partnerships, demonstrating Indias capacity for innovation in semiconductor design and intellectual property.

Microsoft Debuts MAI Voice1 and MAI1 Models to Power Copilot Ecosystem

In an effort to lessen dependency on OpenAI and fortify its Copilot ecosystem, Microsoft has introduced its first inhouse AI models, MAI Voice1 and MA

In an effort to lessen dependency on OpenAI and fortify its Copilot ecosystem, Microsoft has introduced its first inhouse AI models, MAI Voice1 and MAI1preview. With a single GPU, MAI Voice1, which specialises in natural voice production, can create a minute of audio in less than a second. With customisation possible through Copilot Labs, it drives features like Copilot Daily and explainers that sound like podcasts. The textbased foundation model MAI1preview prioritises efficiency above scale and was trained on 15,000 Nvidia H100 GPUs. It is accessible for public testing on LMArena and is optimised for consumer use, despite being smaller than competitors like xAIs Grok. As concerns about development costs and industry mergers grow, Microsofts multimodel strategy seeks to create customised AI systems with an emphasis on sustainability and longterm independence.

G20 Finance Chiefs Meet in Durban Amid Tariff Tensions and $800B African Debt Crisis

Leaders of the G20 finance ministers conference in Durban are attempting to strengthen international collaboration in the face of growing geopolitical

Leaders of the G20 finance ministers conference in Durban are attempting to strengthen international collaboration in the face of growing geopolitical division, debt problems, and tariff concerns. Under the first African presidency, South Africa is hosting the summit, which focuses on Global South objectives like climate finance, infrastructure, and multilateral bank reform. Trumps proposed 30% tariffs on EU goods could destroy transatlantic trade, according to German authorities, while South Korea and other countries prepare for similar actions. U.S. Treasury Secretary Scott Bessents absence has sparked questions about Washingtons commitment to multilateralism. Africas external debt has risen to $800 billion, leading to demands for additional aid and transparent lending. Despite disagreements, delegates want to publish a statement outlining common economic objectives. Read More..

India Negotiates Copper Supply With Chile and Peru Amid Soaring Import Dependency

India is now engaged in free trade agreement FTA negotiations with Chile and Peru to gain longterm access to vital minerals, particularly copper conce

India is now engaged in free trade agreement FTA negotiations with Chile and Peru to gain longterm access to vital minerals, particularly copper concentrate. Over 90% of Indias copper demands are currently satisfied through imports, and by 2047, that percentage is expected to increase to 97%. The goal of the proposed FTAs copperspecific provision is to lessen dependency on China, which controls the worlds supply chain for rare earth magnets and has recently imposed export restrictions. India is also looking into forming alliances with nations like South Korea and Japan for processing technology and offering incentives for domestic magnet manufacture. These initiatives back Indias strategic drive to acquire raw materials essential to the automobile, electronics, and renewable energy industries. Read More..

Trump Gives Russia 50 Days to End Ukraine War or Face 100% Secondary Tariffs

President Donald Trump has threatened to impose 100% "secondary tariffs" on Russian trading partners unless a peace agreement is reached to end the conflict in Ukraine within 50 days. Trump, speaking with NATO Secretary General Mark Rutte, bemoaned Vladimir Putins persistent missile strikes on Kyiv in spite of diplomatic discussions. The tariffs, which are intended to economically isolate Moscow, would be imposed on nations that do business with Russia. In order to strengthen Ukraines defences, Trump simultaneously announced a huge NATO arms sale that included Patriot missile systems and was financed by countries like Germany, Canada, and Sweden. As bipartisan support for even more severe sanctions on Russia and its enablers builds, Trumps approach changes from accommodative to aggressive. Read More..

The Model Y, which costs ₹60 lakh $69,766 for the rearwheel drive version and ₹68 lakh $79,000 for the longrange version, has been formally introduced by Tesla in India. With the opening of its first showroom in Mumbai, Tesla finally makes its longawaited debut in the Indian market.

With deliveries anticipated to start in Q3 2025, Tesla is aiming to compete with luxury EV manufacturers like MercedesBenz and BMW. Officials alluded to potential future R&D and production opportunities in India, even if local manufacturing is not now envisaged. Read More..

To bolster its domestic supply chain, Apple has announced a $500 million investment in MP Materials, the owner of the only fully integrated rare earth mine in the United States. As part of the agreement, Apple will buy rare earth magnets manufactured in the United States from MPs Texas factory, which will provide parts for Apple devices. In order to recycle discarded electronics and industrial garbage, the firms will also construct a new magnet factory in Fort Worth and a recycling facility in Mountain Pass, California. This action supports initiatives to lessen dependency on Chinese rare earths, particularly in light of recent export limitations, and is consistent with Apples larger $500 billion commitment to U.S. investments. Additionally, the collaboration helps Apples objectives in innovation and sustainable production. Read More..
