Diwali Gifts for Employees - Frequently Asked Questions
₹500–₹1,000 per head is the most common range for Diwali employee gifting. At ₹800 for 100 employees, you spend ₹80,000 - enough for a quality hamper with branded packaging. Companies budget more (₹1,200–₹1,800) for senior employees or tenure milestones.
Hampers (multiple items in a box) create a richer unboxing experience and feel more festive - better for Diwali. A single premium item (engraved copper bottle, premium tumbler) works better for work anniversaries or senior gifting. For Diwali, the hamper format wins.
Yes. Provide a spreadsheet of names, addresses, and phone numbers. Each gift is packed individually with the employee's name. Home delivery rates: ₹80–₹150 per address outside Bangalore, included for Bangalore within 15 km.
MintBox includes FSSAI-certified dry fruits, artisan mithai (sweets), packaged chocolates, and artisan cookies. All items come with shelf-life and allergen information. We do not include fresh or unpacked food. Vegan and nut-free options are available on request.
Yes - for meaningful gifting, personalisation is the single highest-ROI addition. A name on a bottle or box costs ₹50–₹100 extra but dramatically increases the employee's perception that the gift was chosen specifically for them, not bought in bulk.
We coordinate multi-city Diwali delivery from one order. Group employees by city, share a spreadsheet, and we dispatch all gifts from a single purchase order with city-wise tracking. All gifts arrive before Diwali subject to ordering by 25 October.
