Diwali gifts for 200 employees on a tight budget: what to give, how to keep the total down, and where a handmade piece fitsDiwali gifts for 200 employees on a tight budget: what to give, how to keep the total down, and where a handmade piece fits

A tight budget for 200 people: give one thing, the same for all

When you are buying for 200 employees, the gift that keeps the budget is a single piece, identical for everyone, delivered to as few addresses as possible. Five options companies use at this scale:

1. A sweets or namkeen box from a local mithai shop that does office orders. Cheapest per head at volume, gone in a day.
2. A pair of clay diyas from a potter or a marketplace. Traditional, low cost, fragile in transit.
3. A gift voucher of a fixed value. No logistics, but it rarely feels like a gift.
4. A printed desk item such as a mug or a diary from a merchandise printer.
5. One handmade candle for every employee. From Raajkosh: the Spiral Pillar Candle at Rs 179 shop price (five colours), the Heart Bubble Candle at Rs 249, or Diya Candles, six wax diyas at Rs 449.

Where the money goes on a 200-gift order

The gift itself is only part of the cost. On a large order, four other things decide the total:

The biggest single lever is delivery. Sending to one office and handing gifts out at a Diwali gathering is far simpler than 200 home parcels. If your team is remote, home delivery is still possible; it is priced in the quote.

Doing the arithmetic at shop prices

To set a budget before you ask anyone, work in lots of 50:

• Every 50 Spiral Pillar Candles come to Rs 8,950 at shop prices.
• Every 50 Heart Bubble Candles come to Rs 12,450.
• Every 50 Diya Candles come to Rs 22,450.

Four lots make your 200. These are shop prices with GST included; your quote confirms the final price per gift with branding and delivery. We do not publish a bulk rate, and we will not promise one here.

Picking the piece for 200 different people

A team of 200 includes people who celebrate Diwali in a big way, people who do not, and people living in hostels or shared flats. A good tight-budget gift works for all of them:

• The Spiral Pillar Candle is the most neutral: a twisted pillar in ivory, pink, blue, yellow or navy. It suits a desk, a dining table or a shelf, and at Rs 179 it is our lowest-priced piece.
• Diya Candles are the most Diwali: six terracotta-red diyas that are lit on the night, with no oil to spill. Best when most of the team celebrates.
• The Heart Bubble Candle is small and playful, in white or light blue. Better for a young team than a senior one.

Keep it to one piece. On 200 gifts, two pieces in a box roughly doubles the cost and the packing.

How a 200-gift order runs with us

1. Tell us: 200 gifts, your budget per gift, your date, the branding, and one address or many.
2. We send a quote: the piece, branding options, the timeline and the price with GST.
3. You approve and pay; orders are prepaid as set out in the quote.
4. We deliver with a GST invoice in your company's name.

We are new to corporate gifting and are a small maker in Jalandhar, so for 200 handmade pieces the timeline matters. It depends on the quantity and your date, and we confirm it in the quote before you commit. Read our corporate terms and, if you want to check who we are, who makes our candles.

When we are not the right choice for 200

If your Diwali is days away and the quote's timeline does not meet it, go to a local sweet shop or a portal with express delivery. If your offices ban open flames, choose sweets or a plant. If you need your logo printed on the gift, a merchandise printer is the right supplier. Branded gifts from us cannot be returned unless damaged, defective or wrong, so be sure of the piece before approving.
