‘Humzatul wasli’ is always pronounced at the starting of a word. Example- اللهُ أَكْبَرُ  (Allahu Akbar). Again sometimes hamzatul wasli is dropped during writing, as for example   بِسْمِ اللهِ Here the hamzatul wasli of اسْمٌ  is dropped.

//‘Humzatul wasli’ is always pronounced at the starting of a word.// Is it right ? I can see in the examples that the hamzatul wasli in the starting of the words is not pronounced.
