Renault Triber Facelift: Exterior Updates
Recent spy images reveal that the upcoming Renault Triber facelift will sport updated styling elements. The most noticeable changes include newly designed LED daytime running lights and slightly revised headlamp units. The front bumper appears to have been reworked, featuring larger air intakes and a repositioned set of fog lamps. Along the sides, a fresh design for the alloy wheels is expected. At the rear, the MPV is likely to feature redesigned tail lamps and a revised bumper design to enhance its overall look.
Renault Triber Facelift: Cabin Enhancements
The cabin layout of the facelifted Triber is expected to largely mirror that of the current model. However, subtle tweaks like new upholstery options and a mildly revised dashboard design could be introduced. Renault might also equip the facelift with additional features such as ambient lighting, an updated digital instrument cluster, auto-dimming interior rearview mirror (IRVM), a 360-degree camera system, a cooled glovebox, and automatic headlamps, to enhance the user experience.

Renault Triber Facelift: Powertrain Details
Under the hood, no mechanical upgrades are expected. The facelifted Triber will likely continue with the existing 1.0-litre, three-cylinder petrol engine that delivers 72 hp of power and 96 Nm of torque. This engine is paired with either a 5-speed manual transmission or a 5-speed AMT.
Although there has been speculation about introducing a 1.0-litre turbo-petrol engine, which produces 100 hp and 160 Nm of torque, it has yet to make it to the Triber lineup. Whether Renault plans to include this engine option with the facelift remains uncertain. If introduced, this engine would likely be offered with a 5-speed manual gearbox or a CVT automatic.
Renault Triber Facelift: Expected Pricing
Currently, the Renault Triber is priced between ₹6.15 lakh and ₹8.98 lakh (ex-showroom). With the upcoming facelift, a price increase is anticipated. Nevertheless, Renault is expected to keep the Triber competitively priced, continuing its position as the most budget-friendly MPV in India.

India Poised to Become Global Air Cargo Hub – ACFI & ASCELA Insights Chart Roadmap for 2030 in its Knowledge Paper

ACFI signs MoU with TIACA and will be signing MoU's with Government Of Madhya Pradesh and Tripura New Delhi, Delhi, India (NewsVoir) Air Cargo Forum India (ACFI) and ASCELA Insights today released the knowledge paper titled 'India's Air Cargo Horizon – Seizing Global Reroutes, Regional Dominance and Resilience', which unveils a transformative vision to position India as a global air cargo hub. The knowledge paper was released today at the 4th ACFI Annual Conclave in New Delhi. With India's air cargo volumes projected to triple to 10 million metric tonnes per annum (MTPA) by 2030, the paper highlights the sector's rapid evolution, driven by the e-commerce boom, policy momentum, greenfield infrastructure and rising demand for high-value cargo, such as pharmaceuticals and perishables. As part of the strategic roadmap for the air cargo industry, ACFI is proud to announce landmark partnership with The International Air Cargo Association (TIACA) that will significantly bolster both regional connectivity and global knowledge sharing. Also, soon ACFI will be signing MoU's with Government of Tripura and Government of Madhya Pradesh. Speaking at the launch, Mr. Sanjiv Edward, President, ACFI, said, 'The Indian air cargo sector is at a pivotal inflection point and undergoing rapid transformation. At this crucial juncture, this knowledge paper outlines the strategic roadmap until 2030, infrastructure requirements, policy reforms, and the initiatives by the air cargo industry to achieve the ambitious target of 10 MTPA of air cargo volumes set by the Ministry of Civil Aviation, Government of India. This paper has laid down a clear action plan for all stakeholders of the industry. India is uniquely positioned to redefine global cargo corridors. With bold policy reforms and strategic investments, we can build a resilient, digitised, and world-class logistics ecosystem.' Shri. Piyush Srivastava, Sr. Economic Advisor, Ministry Of Civil Aviation said, "Air infrastructure today faces key global dichotomies—demand is rapidly growing in the Eastern Hemisphere, while critical services like manufacturing and MRO remain concentrated in the West. This imbalance is bound to shift. As demand grows, supply will follow. It's not just about 'Made in India'; it's about 'Make in India'—a strategic priority for us moving forward.' He further added, "The Aviation sector is highly sensitive to global geopolitical shifts. While events like the Red Sea crisis have offered temporary advantages for the Indian air cargo system. But prolonged airspace closures over Pakistan and over three years of the ongoing Ukraine-Russia conflict, have significantly disrupted operations and increased costs. These challenges are not only unpredictable but inevitable. The only sustainable path forward lies in embracing technology, innovation, and disruption.' Speaking at the launch, Dheeraj Rastogi, Principal Commissioner Customs, Delhi, 'India's customs operations have undergone a significant transformation—from early digitization efforts to the integration of advanced technologies such as artificial intelligence, blockchain, and risk-based segmentation,' stated Mr. Dheeraj Rastogi. These innovations have contributed to a substantial reduction in transaction costs and improved the overall efficiency of cargo processing.' He further added, 'Currently, 52% of air cargo is cleared on the same day, with average clearance time at Delhi Air Cargo reduced from 41 hours to 35 hours. The department remains committed to maintaining a fine balance between revenue mobilization, national security, trade facilitation, and legal compliance. Given the increasing complexities introduced by e-commerce, a collaborative, data-driven approach between industry stakeholders and regulatory authorities is imperative. Our collective goal must be to build a seamless, AI-enabled ecosystem that supports India's emergence as a global leader in air cargo logistics.' According to Mr. Glyn Hughes, Director General, TIACA, 'With TIACA representing the entire air cargo supply chain and ACFI representing the Indian air cargo industry, it is crucial we work together so that the world can receive Indian exports efficiently and bring the best practices achieved in other countries. Globally, every year, goods worth US$9 trillion are transported through air cargo, accounting for one-third of global trade. India is at the heart of the growing global trade, and we will work toward making air cargo an integral part of it. TIACA, with its global memberships, would be able to act as a support to the Indian air cargo industry in the fields of digitalisation, enhanced usage of modern technology, including AI and adoption of other global standards.' Together with the Ministry of Civil Aviation, ACFI is shaping a forward-looking roadmap to meet the growing demands of domestic and international logistics. These partnerships reflect ACFI's unwavering commitment to building a resilient, efficient and globally competitive air cargo ecosystem that supports India's economic aspirations. Key findings of the knowledge report • Capacity Concentration: 82% of air cargo is currently handled by just six airports (Delhi, Mumbai, Bengaluru, Hyderabad, Chennai and Kolkata), amplifying concentration risk and operational inefficiencies. • Growth Enablers: Digitisation, strategic airport locations in India, integrated multimodal corridors (PM Gati Shakti), and emerging connectivity in tier-2 cities. • Regulatory Gaps: Scalability of the sector is hindered by fragmented clearance systems, high dwell times (almost 12 hours for exports and 48 hours for imports) and limited transhipment readiness. • Investment Heatmap: High potential in cold-chain operations, Sustainable Aviation Fuel (SAF) production, automation and freighter fleet expansion. The secondary airports have the potential to play a critical role. The Government of India's initiative to significantly enhance air connectivity across India will give the required boost to the air cargo sector. At present, these secondary airports are underutilised due to poor infrastructure and limited airline networks. The report highlights the strategic action areas to triple air cargo handling to 10 MTPA by 2030. These strategic actions include: • Creation of transhipment hubs with 24x7 clearance and zero rescreening • National Unified Digital Clearance Window and Cargo Command Centres • Freighter acquisition incentives and plug-and-play terminals across regional hubs • ESG integration via green infrastructure, SAF blending, and inclusive workforce practices Global Inspiration, Local Action: Drawing on best practices from Singapore, Frankfurt and Dubai, the report advocates for modular warehousing, predictive slot allocation, and unified cargo community systems to manage rerouted and time-sensitive freight. The paper serves as a call to action for industry, government, and private stakeholders to forge collaborative pathways and enhance India's role in international trade and economic growth. Here are the key highlights of the Knowledge Report Key Highlights of the Knowledge Report India's Air Cargo Horizon: Seizing Global Reroutes, Regional Dominance and Resilience Indian Air Cargo Industry • Target: 10 MTPA by 2030 (from 3.71 MTPA in FY-2025) • Growth Drivers: • E-commerce boom • Greenfield airports (e.g., Jewar, Navi Mumbai) • Digitised customs, Unified Logistics Interface Platform integration • High-value cargo (pharma, perishables, electronics) Infrastructure & Operational Bottlenecks • 82% of cargo is handled by just 6 airports (Delhi, Mumbai, Bengaluru, Hyderabad, Chennai, Kolkata) • Secondary airports are underutilised due to poor infrastructure and limited airline networks • High dwell times: 12 hours (exports), 48 hours (imports) • Lack of dedicated transhipment zones and automation Privatisation & Policy Reforms • Rs. 6–7 lakh crore investment needed for Sustainable Aviation Fuel and infrastructure • Key initiatives: • Krishi UDAN 2.0 (50% freight subsidy for agri-perishables) • 100% FDI allowed in air cargo • SUGAM (Sustainable Green Airports Mission) • Dedicated air freight corridors and cargo subsidiaries (e.g., Air India) Regulatory & Governance Gaps • Cargo rescreening and high clearance times increase costs • Fragmented digital systems and inconsistent state regulations • Only ~10% transhipment share at Delhi vs. ~40% at global hubs • Limited SAF (Sustainable Aviation Fuel) production and adoption Building Rerouting Resilience • India lacks integrator hubs like Singapore (DHL South Asia) or Frankfurt (CargoCity South) • Best practices from global hubs: • Zoned infrastructure • 24/7 customs with fast lanes • Real-time digital coordination (ACCS, CCS) • Modular warehousing and predictive slot allocation Strategic Roadmap to 10 MTPA • Single-window digital clearance platform • Transshipment hubs with zero rechecks • Multimodal integration with Gati Shakti corridors • Plug-and-play cargo terminals and standalone cargo airports • IoT enabled cargo visibility and National Cargo Command Centres • Friegth acquisition incentives • National air cargo training alliance Accelerating ESG in Air Cargo • SAF blending targets: 1% by 2027 → 5% by 2030 • ESG Challenges: • High SAF cost (2.5x jet fuel) • Fragmented cold-chain • Low female workforce participation (<10%) • Limited automation and skilled talent • ESG Drivers: • Green airport infrastructure (solar, EVs, LEED) • CORSIA-linked emissions reporting • DE&I initiatives (e.g., IATA's '25 by 2025') Emerging Cargo Hubs • Navi Mumbai – Focus: Pharma, Perishables, Jewellery Potential: Multimodal Transhipment Hub • Jewa (Noida) – Focus: Electronics, Apparel Potential: Cold chain, IGI integration • Hyderabad - Focus: Pharma, Aerospace Potential: Dedicated Pharma infra Chennai - Focus: Leather, FMCG Potential: Cold chain, E-commerce • Guwahati - Focus: Tea, Perishables Potential: Gateway to North East (Disclaimer: The above press release comes to you under an arrangement with Newsvoir and PTI takes no editorial responsibility for the same.).

PM Modi highlights job creation through welfare, manufacturing push

Prime Minister Narendra Modi on Saturday emphasised his government's focus on generating employment in the public and private sectors, asserting that the country has progressed in every field in the past 11 years. In a virtual address after the distribution of over 51,000 appointment letters, he said his government's welfare schemes, be it building over 4 crore houses for the poor, distributing over 10 crore new LPG connections or the rooftop solar programme, have created lakhs of new employment opportunities and so have a host of other initiatives that led to growth in manufacturing sector. Speaking of his recent five-nation tour, he said the whole world now recognises the strength of India's demography and democracy. The ability of India's youth is its biggest capital and a guarantee of the country's bright future, he added. He said, "The world acknowledges today that India possesses two infinite powers. One is demography, the other is democracy. In other words, the largest youth population and the largest democracy." The prime minister asserted that the agreements signed during his tour will benefit Indian youth both within the country and abroad. The treaties cover critical sectors such as defence, pharmaceuticals, digital technology, energy, and rare earth minerals and will create far-reaching benefits. "These initiatives will not only strengthen India's global economic standing but also generate meaningful opportunities for young Indians in both manufacturing and services," he said. Noting that over 25 crore people were lifted out of poverty in the past 10 years, the prime minister said it would not have happened but for the employment and sources of income generated for them. These poor people used to have a difficult living and feared death but became so strong that they defeated poverty, he added. Citing an International Labour Organization report, Modi said over 90 crore people were covered under the ambit of welfare schemes in the last decade. India, based on its Gini index, is among the countries with the highest equality, he said, underscoring his government's pro-people efforts. Modi said his government's focus on boosting manufacturing has paid off, saying electronic manufacturing has risen over five times to be worth Rs 11 trillion in 11 years and mobile manufacturing units number nearly 300 from two to four earlier. Defence manufacturing is being discussed proudly after Operation Sindoor, he said in an apparent reference to the display of India's indigenous military capability during the conflict with Pakistan. The worth of defence production has gone beyond Rs 1.25 trillion, he said, adding that India is now on its way to becoming the third-largest economy. Modi said India has emerged as the largest locomotive producer in the world and rail and metro coaches have registered strong exports. The automobile sector, he added, has attracted USD 40 billion in FDI in just five years, resulting in new factories, new job opportunities, and record vehicle sales. The government, he said, is also focusing on creating new employment opportunities as he referred to the Employment Linked Incentive Scheme, under which people in their first job in the private sector will be given Rs 15,000. The government will contribute to the first salary of their first job and has allocated a budget of approximately Rs 1 trillion, he said, adding that it is expected to help in the creation of about 3.5 crore new jobs. He stressed the transformative power of India's manufacturing sector in driving national growth, generating employment, and accelerating India's journey toward becoming the world's third-largest economy. Appointment letters were distributed as part of the government's Rozgar Mela. The Rozgar Mela will play a significant role in providing meaningful opportunities to the youth for their empowerment and participation in nation-building, a government statement has said. Over 10 lakh recruitment letters have been issued so far under it, it said.
