Need to buy two tablets for around 25k each, can spend up to 30k if necessary or even go down to 20k if not necessary

Only wifi

Mostly for media consumption, light email , light word and video calls, no need for pen maybe keyboard at a later point of time

Some options I have come across Mi pad 6, POCO pad, iPad 9
 
Mi Pad by itself has rubbish software with HyperOS being even worse than MIUI with hardly any updates for the price. I used mine with custom ROMs from the second day and with that it was bearable.

You can also check xaiomi pad 7, mi pad 6 has sd 870 while pad 7 has sd 7+ gen 3 so the performance would be good. 128gb version is available for 27k.
 
Check Samsung s9 fe or fe+ (check samsung website, sale going to be in 3 days). Few months back, some got s9 fe+ for 25k only with credit card. Screen is massive. But processing power is lacking.

I settled with ipad 10th gen.

Both have very good reviews!

Edit: added picture.

If you are looking for a long term, consider Apple, Samsung.

That Xiaomi device won't hold good after 2 years given their software. They are trying to compensate it with high refresh rate, good screen(both important) but not at the cost of software.

Xiaomi Pad 6 & Pad 7 have superior hardware to other options under 30k. Samsung has superior software but 6GB RAM & lower performance SoC will make me suggest Xiaomi. I have used a friend's old Samsung 25k tablet from 2020 or so, it kind of lags even though phones around 20k were good even back then. Maybe try to find S9 FE locally & try it out yourself.

Hyper OS is not as good as One UI but it is not a bad OS. It will do the job because of the raw hardware performance. Slow OS updates doesn't matter much as android updates don't add a lot these days anyway.
 
Was in a similar position, locked in on an used S7+, AMOLED 12.4 being the superior option to whatever the market is offering in buzzword LCDs. I'd get an used S series tab if buying used isn't an issue.
Lenovo Tabs could also be an option.
