One gift for Ayudha Pooja that is still in use at Deepavali

On Ayudha Pooja, offices and factories across Tamil Nadu, Karnataka, Kerala and Andhra clean and decorate their tools, machines and vehicles, do the pooja, and hand staff sweets, a gift and often a bonus. A good Ayudha Pooja gift for employees is one the family can use in their own home pooja, and because Deepavali follows within a few weeks, a set of diyas or a lotus candle gets used twice.

Raajkosh makes hand-poured soy wax diyas and pooja-shelf candles in Jalandhar. From 10 gifts we add your company's logo on the gift tag, the note card or a wax seal, raise a GST invoice, and deliver to the office, the factory or each employee's home anywhere in India. Ask at raajkosh.com/corporate.

Pooja pieces for the workplace gift

Shop price; your quote confirms the final price per gift with branding and delivery.

Piece What it is Shop price Suits
Lotus Candle layered lotus bloom, green and red or coral pink Rs 349 large staff lists, the home mandir
Diya Candles 6 terracotta-red diyas with a lattice rim, wax instead of oil Rs 449 every home, used again at Deepavali
Sunflower Tealights 10 tealights with yellow wax sunflowers Rs 449 kolam edges and doorsteps
Urli Candles a pair of gold-rimmed urli bowls with a wax sunflower Rs 699 supervisors and senior staff
Shankh Candle conch vessel with pink wax lotus blooms Rs 799 the management team

Every piece is a decorative soy candle with no stated fragrance. The diyas hold wax, not oil, so there is nothing to spill on the kolam and no ghee to top up during the pooja.

Getting it right for a works or a branch office

Factory and site staff. Many Ayudha Pooja gift lists run into hundreds, from machine operators to drivers and security. Keep one piece for everyone, such as the Diya Candles, so the gift is the same on the shop floor and in the office.

Tiers for supervisors and management. A common pattern is one piece for all staff and a fuller gift for supervisors: the Urli Candles, or the Shankh Candle with the Lotus Candle in one box at Rs 799 + Rs 349 = Rs 1,148 at shop prices. One quote can cover both tiers.

Shift workers and those on leave. If people will not all be on site on the pooja day, send to homes. Choose many addresses on the enquiry form.

Workplace rules on flames. Do not light candles on the shop floor or near machines and fuel. These are gifts for the home pooja. If your site bans open flames, say so on the card: "for your home, this Navaratri and Deepavali".

Saraswati Pooja on the same days. Offices that celebrate Saraswati Pooja alongside Ayudha Pooja can use the same gift; the Lotus Candle fits both.

What else companies give on Ayudha Pooja

The traditional workplace gift is a box of sweets and a bonus, often with a steel vessel, a dhoti or saree, a bag, or a hamper of pooja items such as kumkum, turmeric, camphor and agarbatti. These are what many employees expect. A set of wax diyas or a lotus candle fits as the lasting part of the gift, next to the sweets. We do not supply sweets, clothes or puja samagri; we make the candles.

Timing, and how to order

Ayudha Pooja falls on the ninth day of Navaratri, so the date moves each year. The lead time for a branded order depends on the quantity and your date, and we confirm it in the quote, so send the enquiry well before Navaratri.

  1. Tell us the number of gifts (from 10, no minimum order value), budget per gift for each tier, the date, branding, and one address or many.
  2. We quote the pieces, branding options, timeline and price with GST.
  3. Approve and pay. Orders are prepaid, as set out in the quote.
  4. Delivered to the office, works or every home, with a GST invoice in your company's name and GSTIN.

For fewer than 10 gifts, order from the shop; shipping is free from Rs 999 and Rs 79 below. Branded gifts cannot be returned unless they arrive damaged, defective or wrong; report damage within 24 hours of delivery for a replacement or refund.

At home: never leave a lit diya or candle unattended, keep it away from flowers and cloth on the pooja shelf, and keep each burn to 3 to 4 hours.
