(delhibirdpix) Vulture ID

Hi,
 
At Desert National Park, there was a cluster of about 6-7 vultures on one tree, with another cluster including Egyptian Vultures on another. This was soon after the desert storm/thundershower, so I guess they were drying themselves, and looking more like phoenix rising from the ashes!
 
Is the light brown bird a juvenile White-rumped, and the others adults? To me, the beak looks longer - more like Long-billed, but other features don't match.
Would very much appreciate confirmation.
 
Thank you.
Sushmita Jha
