Client gifts for a chartered accountant firm: what a CA can send business clients, and when

Good client gifts for a CA firm are modest, useful or auspicious, and timed to the client's own calendar: a planner with the year's due dates, a dry fruit box, or a Lakshmi piece for the client's Diwali puja and new books, such as the Raajkosh Lotus Candle (Rs 349) or Diya Candles (Rs 449 for six). From 10 gifts with your firm's name on the tag via raajkosh.com/corporate.

A CA firm's gift should feel like the firm: careful, useful, unshowy

A chartered accountant's clients are business owners, family offices, salaried professionals and the occasional startup. The relationship runs on trust and on deadlines. So a CA firm's client gift should look like the firm: well-judged, modest, and on time. Flashy gifts sit oddly with a firm that also advises clients on their expenses.

What CA firms commonly send clients, by kind:

  1. A planner or desk calendar with the year's compliance dates (GST, TDS, advance tax, ITR) from a printer: the most useful CA gift there is, and every client keeps it on the desk.
  2. A dry fruit or sweets box from a good local seller: the standard Diwali gift, and safe for every client.
  3. A book on money or business from a bookstore: suits clients who read, and reflects the firm's advice.
  4. A Lakshmi piece for the client's Diwali puja, from Raajkosh, Jalandhar: for many business families, Diwali is when the new books are opened with a Lakshmi puja (chopda pujan or bahi-khata puja). The Lotus Candle, Rs 349, a sculpted lotus in green and red or coral pink, is Lakshmi's flower; Diya Candles, Rs 449 for six wax diyas for the puja, with no oil near the account books; the Shankh Candle, Rs 799, for senior clients. Shop prices; your quote confirms the final price.
  5. A two-piece puja box: Lotus Candle with Diya Candles comes to Rs 798 at shop prices.

Choosing for a CA firm's client list

  • Time it to the client's year, not yours. Three windows work: just before Diwali, for the puja and the new books; after the ITR and audit deadlines, as a thank-you for the documents chased; and the start of the financial year in April.
  • Keep the value modest and equal. A CA firm's clients compare notes. One gift for every client, a slightly larger one for long-standing family clients, and nothing that looks like a commission.
  • Check your professional and firm guidance. If your firm or your professional body has guidance on gifts to or from clients, follow it; and some corporate clients have strict gift policies of their own. Check before you send.
  • Faith-aware choices. Lakshmi pieces suit clients who do a Diwali puja. For others, use a neutral gift: Vanilla Reverie (Rs 549, our only scented candle) or the planner.
  • Your firm's name, small. On the tag or the card, with a line from the partner.
