Renault Triber And Kiger Facelift Seen Testing, Revealing New Design Details
2026 Renault Kiger Facelift: Design, Powertrain Expected
The 2026 Renault Kiger seems to carry the same design as the current model on sale. However, it does get a few design tweaks on the front. The test mule suggests that the 2026 iteration of the Kiger will get a larger grille in the center, and the brand has also equipped a smaller grille that will carry the brand's logo. It will also get streamlined LED DRLs and a flat bonnet shutline. The test mule also had newly designed wheels.
The interior design and features of the 2026 Kiger are yet to be revealed. However, it is likely to carry forward the same engine options offered in the current model- a 1.0-liter NA petrol, a 1.0-liter turbo petrol, and a CNG engine (available as options).
2026 Renault Triber Facelift: Design, Powertrain Expected
The 2026 Renault Triber will retain most of the exterior elements from the model currently on sale. However, the spy shots suggest a few design tweaks that you can expect on the upcoming model. It will get a refreshed grille design, newly designed bumpers, and a headlight on the front. Also, the square-shaped rear lights seen on the test mule give it an aggressive look.
Talking about the powertrain, the current iteration of the Triber gets a 1.0-liter NA petrol engine, which is likely to be carried forward to the 2026 model as well.
More details about the exterior and the interior of the 2026 Triber facelift will be unveiled as the launch date gets closer.

Soham Parekh breaks silence: Indian engineer admits to working at multiple startups, says it wasn't to scam anyone
Soham Parekh, accused of working at multiple startups simultaneously, has admitted to doing so in a recent interview but strongly added that he didn't do it to scam the companies. The internet has been flooded with stories, opinions and allegations after Mixpanel co-founder Suhail Doshi shared a tweet about Parekh accusing him of being a scammer. Soham Parekh, accused of working at multiple startups at the same time, hails from Mumbai and later relocated to the USA. (YouTube/@TBPNLive) In an interview with TBPN, Parekh shared his side of the story. When one of the interviewers asked him if he indeed held multiple jobs at the same time, Parekh said, 'It is true'. Why did he do it? 'Do you believe you were in violation of your own employment contracts? Or do you believe there were some legal loopholes that allowed you to do this without committing any sort of legal violation?' Parekh was asked. The Indian techie answered, 'Honestly, going back to how it started and what the motivations were. You probably know, I would want to preface with saying I'm not proud of what I've done. It's not something I endorse either.' He then says that he did it due to his financial situation. 'Financial circumstances essentially. No one really likes to work 140 hours a week but I had to do it out of necessity.' He explained that his actions were guided by necessity and not by greed. Did he hire people to work for him? Social media claimed that Parekh made a business out of his multiple jobs by hiring junior developers to do most of the work. The Indian techie denied the allegations, adding that he wrote every "inch of codes." Soham Parekh said he was born in Mumbai and relocated to the US in 2020. He was originally scheduled to relocate in 2018 and start his grad school. However, he said he had to give up on the idea due to his financial situation.

Startups to giants: India rides the AI wave to sustainability
India is fast becoming a global vanguard in marrying artificial intelligence (AI) with sustainable development. As the world faces mounting climate challenges, the country's businesses, ranging from IT behemoths to climate-tech start-ups, are weaving AI into the fabric of their green goals, making India one of the most AI-active nations in sustainability initiatives. A striking 64% of Indian companies are now actively deploying AI to boost the impact of their sustainability efforts — the highest proportion among surveyed countries, according to IBM's 2024 sustainability readiness study. This isn't just a sign of technological enthusiasm, but of a maturing mindset that places environmental responsibility at the heart of corporate strategy. India's journey is as much about economic transformation as it is about ecological conscience. In 2022–23, the digital economy accounted for nearly 12% of the national income, underlining the country's success in harnessing tech for green growth. Take Infosys, for instance. The IT giant achieved carbon neutrality in 2020 — well ahead of global targets — by using AI and digital tools to drive energy efficiency, adopt renewables, and run offset projects that also benefit rural communities. The company was also the first Indian firm to join the RE100 initiative, committing to 100% renewable electricity. by Taboola by Taboola Sponsored Links Sponsored Links Promoted Links Promoted Links You May Like 5 Books Warren Buffett Wants You to Read In 2025 Blinkist: Warren Buffett's Reading List Undo But it's not just industry titans making waves. India's climate-tech ecosystem now boasts over 800 operational start-ups, which have collectively raised more than $3.6 billion between 2014 and 2024. Among them is Alt Carbon, a venture leading the charge in carbon removal technologies. The company combines geochemical innovation, environmental data platforms, and scientific validation to sequester CO 2 through enhanced rock weathering and soil improvement on farmland. With its cutting-edge platform 'Atlas', Alt Carbon can monitor soil chemistry, water dynamics, and ecosystem health at high resolution, and aims to remove 5 million metric tons of CO 2 by 2030. AI and other emerging technologies like IoT (internet of things), 5G, and blockchain are transforming how Indian enterprises think about sustainability. From resource-efficient smart grids to traceable, ethical supply chains and real-time emissions monitoring, digital tools are offering tangible solutions to previously intractable problems. This momentum is also evident in platforms such as EY's ESG Compass, which supports businesses in navigating ESG (Environmental, Social & Governance) goals through data automation, risk analytics, and benchmarking tools. Such solutions are helping organisations make more informed, sustainable decisions while increasing transparency for stakeholders. Yet, as PM Narendra Modi recently reminded the world at the AI Action Summit 2025, sustainable AI must not merely be powered by clean energy, but also be efficient by design—light on data, lean on compute power, and accessible to the broader developer community. 'After all,' he said, 'the human brain can compose poetry and design spaceships while using less power than most light bulbs.' Indeed, while AI tools are proving their worth, there are pressing concerns that must be addressed — particularly around data privacy, interoperability, and ethical design. Most current sustainability-driven AI tools focus on energy emissions during training, often ignoring emissions during the deployment and inference phases. Moreover, many are tailored for highly skilled developers, limiting access for users relying on APIs or nocode platforms. As The Times of India Social Impact Summit approaches, the conversation is expected to pivot around these very themes: how to scale tech-enabled ESG and CSR (Corporate Social Responsibility) efforts, ensure inclusive adoption, and drive measurable impact. With diverse stakeholders converging, the summit presented by Malabar Gold & Diamonds — Ernst & Young is knowledge partner — aims to serve as a crucible for collaboration and future-ready sustainability solutions. It is being held on July 11 and 12, 2025, in Mumbai.
