No wobble, all wow as homegrown TVs dial up speed, sound and smarts
MUMBAI: India’s TV market is getting a sharp reality check and it’s coming without the wobble. Wobble Displays has unveiled its new Wobble X Series and Wobble K Series Google TVs, signalling a clear shift from simple assembly to deep, India-led engineering designed to take on global heavyweights.
At the heart of the launch is Google TV 5.0 with Gemini integration, using AI to personalise content discovery and adapt viewing recommendations in real time. The move positions Wobble squarely in the premium-smart space, while keeping prices firmly rooted in the mass Indian market.
The performance-led Wobble X Series, available in 43, 50 and 55 inches, is aimed at gamers and cinema loyalists. Its Ultra QLED panel delivers 1.07 billion colours, supported by Dolby Vision-Atmos, MEMC and ALLM for smoother motion and sharper visuals. Powering the experience is the DynamIQ dual-processor AI architecture (A75 + A55), optimised for both picture quality and interface speed.
Sound is where the X Series makes its loudest statement. The TVs feature TRU 80W PRO speakers with dual woofers, dedicated amplifiers and tweeters, a configuration Wobble claims offers class-leading audio straight out of the box. Add 120Hz VRR, HDMI 2.1, eARC and dual-band Wi-Fi, and the X Series doubles up as a serious gaming display.
The Wobble K Series takes a more everyday route, but without cutting corners. Available in 43, 50, 55 and 65 inches, it brings flagship-grade features into the mass-premium segment, including HDMI 2.1, dual-band Wi-Fi and 32GB of internal storage still rare at this price point. With 40W Dolby Vision-Atmos audio, MEMC and ALLM support, the K Series is positioned as a no-compromise living-room upgrade.
Speaking on the launch, Indkal Technologies, CEO Anand Dubey said the new range reflects a broader ambition. “With the X and K Series, we are expanding our smart TV portfolio for both performance-driven users and everyday Indian households. This is technology designed in India, for India proving we can deliver world-class specs through homegrown engineering.”
The Wobble X Series is priced from Rs 23,999, while the Wobble K Series starts at Rs 10,999, underlining the brand’s push to make AI-driven, high-performance TVs more accessible. In a crowded market of lookalikes, Wobble’s latest play is clear: fewer gimmicks, more grunt and a lot less wobble.

KPMG names Gary Wingrove as global chairman and CEO from October
Record Gmada bids signal rising demand as Rs 1,000 crore bet reshapes Tricity skyline
MUMBAI: KPMG has chosen continuity with a forward tilt. The firm has announced that Gary Wingrove will take over as global chairman and CEO of KPMG International, beginning a four year term from 1 October 2026. Currently serving as global chief operating officer, Wingrove steps into the top role after being nominated by the global board and elected by the global council.
A KPMG veteran with over 25 years at the firm, Wingrove has been closely involved in shaping its recent trajectory. As global COO, he has helped drive the firm’s Collective Strategy, focusing on operational integration, global investments and the steady expansion of the KPMG Delivery Network. He has also been at the forefront of KPMG’s digital push, including the rollout of AI enabled solutions across its global operations.
Before his global role, Wingrove served as CEO of KPMG Australia for nearly a decade, where he led a period of strong growth, almost doubling revenue, profitability and headcount while steering a cultural reset.
He succeeds Bill Thomas, who has led KPMG since 2017 and will work alongside Wingrove over the next six months to ensure a smooth transition.
Thomas leaves behind a firm that looks markedly different from when he took charge. Under his leadership, KPMG’s global revenues have risen by 55 per cent, and its workforce has expanded to more than 276,000 people. He also unified the network of member firms under the Collective Strategy, aligning priorities and strengthening governance.
His tenure saw heavy investment in technology and partnerships, with alliances spanning Microsoft, Google Cloud, SAP, Oracle and ServiceNow. These collaborations, along with platforms like KPMG Clara, have helped the firm scale its AI-led offerings and sharpen its competitive edge.
Beyond growth, Thomas also pushed improvements in audit quality and sustainability. Initiatives such as a multiyear global sustainability strategy and the Our Impact Plan have aimed to embed long term thinking into the firm’s operations and client services.
For Wingrove, the brief is clear but evolving. He has signalled a focus on agility, deep expertise and technology driven solutions as clients navigate an increasingly complex business landscape. He also emphasised KPMG’s identity as a people first organisation, supported by technology and unified through its global network.
The timing of the leadership change comes as KPMG continues to grow, reporting a 5.1 per cent rise in global revenue in FY25, with gains across tax and legal, audit and advisory services. Growth was recorded across all regions, despite a challenging macro environment.
As Wingrove prepares to take charge, the firm appears set on a familiar path with a sharper digital edge. Same playbook, perhaps, but with a renewed focus on speed, scale and smarter solutions.
