A hamper solves the main problem of company Diwali gifting: it arrives looking finished. One box, one price and one photo to approve, and the person opening it gets a mix of things rather than a single object. The decisions that remain are which hamper, for whom, and how your name appears on it.
This page is for choosing and ordering hampers. If you are still deciding what a good hamper should contain, our guide to corporate Diwali hampers covers contents, food rules and card wording in detail.
Ready hamper or a box you build: which suits your Diwali order?
Both are sold through the same quote, and plenty of companies use both: a ready hamper for the large employee tier and a built box for a short client list. The difference shows up in time, approvals and control.
| Question | Ready hamper | Box you build |
|---|---|---|
| How long does choosing take? | Short: pick from finished designs and approve one photo | Longer: choose each item, then the box and the card |
| Can every city get exactly the same thing? | Yes, one design per tier keeps every parcel identical | Yes, once the contents list is locked |
| Can it match our brand colours? | Through the sleeve, card and branded packaging | Fully, from the box to each item |
| Can we include one specific keepsake? | Only if a ready design already has it | Yes, the box is built around it |
| Can we swap items for dietary needs? | Ask in the quote; some swaps are possible | Yes, you choose every item |
| Best for | Whole-company tiers, large lists, late decisions | Client lists, leadership, brand-led programmes |
To build one, shortlist items in build your own gift box. Ready gift set or custom gift box compares the two in more depth, outside the Diwali season.
What kinds of Diwali hampers are in the catalogue?
Most hampers in the range are named after their centrepiece, which makes the name a useful first filter. Open a product to see the photo of what is inside; your written quote lists the exact items. The starting prices below are the lowest indicative per-unit prices in each theme at the time of writing.
| Theme | Starts from | Examples (indicative per unit) | Suits |
|---|---|---|---|
| Light and lantern | ₹385 | Luxe Lantern Hamper (₹979), The Festival of Light Hamper (₹1,365), Luma LED Light Diwali Hamper (₹1,561) | Any team; the light is what stays in the home |
| Tech and sound | ₹595 | Luxe Charge Hamper (₹595), Sound & Soul Hamper (₹1,239), Tech & Tradition Diwali Hamper (₹1,470) | Younger, hybrid and tech teams |
| Coffee, tea and brew | ₹595 | Sip & Travel Hamper (₹595), Festive Tea Indulgence Hamper (₹1,014), Coffee Ritual Hamper (₹1,889) | Clients and teams who host guests over the festive week |
| Wellness and aroma | ₹350 | Calm & Connected Diwali Hamper (₹510), Relaxation Collection Hamper (₹1,470), Serenity Wellness Hamper (₹3,290) | Recognition gifts and senior colleagues |
| Workday and desk | ₹385 | Modern Workday Hamper (₹1,050), Desk Luxe Hamper (₹4,270) | Office teams and leaders who want something useful |
| Heritage and vintage | ₹350 | Traditions Diwali Hamper (₹350), Vintage Charm Diwali Hamper (₹1,680), Royal Festive Diwali Hamper (₹2,170) | Traditional presentation for clients and dealers |
| Eco and bamboo | ₹889 | Bamboo Desk Essentials Hamper (₹889), Bamboo Tech Essential Hamper (₹1,050) | Companies with a low-plastic brief |
| Travel | ₹595 | Travel & Drive Hamper (₹1,190), Cruise & Celebrate Diwali Hamper (₹2,712) | Field teams and people who commute |
A theme that matches the recipient's day matters more than the number of items. A tech hamper for a plant crew or a coffee hamper for a team that drinks tea all day is a mismatch, however full the box looks.
Which hamper suits which recipient tier?
Most companies need two to four hamper designs, one per tier. The table maps common tiers to bands and to real hampers from the range; use it to shortlist, then confirm prices in your quote.
| Recipient tier | Indicative band per hamper | Hampers from our range |
|---|---|---|

Hampers for managers, leaders and key clients
For the top tier, Diwali gifts for CXOs and senior leaders and Diwali gifts for clients cover etiquette and gift policies; channel partners are covered in Diwali gifts for dealers and distributors. For employee tiers, Diwali gifts for employees looks at single gifts as well as hampers.
How many hamper designs does one company need?
Fewer than most people expect. Every extra design adds a photo to approve, a packing line to check and a column in the delivery sheet, and it raises the chance that two colleagues compare boxes and notice the difference. A useful rule is one design per tier, plus one alternative for people who avoid sugar or particular foods, and no more than four designs in total.
Within a tier, resist the urge to vary hampers by office or city. A team in Pune and a team in Noida doing the same job should open the same box. If you want variety, vary the card instead: a line from the local head or a mention of something that office did this year costs nothing extra and feels more personal than a different hamper.
How is a corporate Diwali hamper branded and presented?
Think of the hamper as a sequence the recipient goes through: the parcel arrives, the box comes out, the lid opens, the card is read, and one item is kept. Each step is a place your brand can appear, and none of them needs a large logo.
- The box or a sleeve. The first thing anyone sees. A printed or debossed logo on the lid, or a branded sleeve around a standard hamper box, is the usual place for the company name. Custom branded packaging is available on request.
- The greeting card. The most personal surface in the hamper. Print it with your logo and a message signed by a named person; for a client list, add the recipient's name.
- One kept item. If any product carries a mark, make it the item that outlives the festival, such as a lamp, a mug or a desk piece, with a small printed or engraved logo. Food packs stay in their own packaging.
- Consistency across tiers. Use the same box style and card design for every tier, with the hamper inside doing the stepping up. It looks like one programme rather than four separate orders.
Send a vector logo (AI, EPS, SVG or PDF) and approve a mockup before production. Which method suits which material is set out in customised Diwali gifts with your logo and on the customisation page.
What should a Diwali hamper quote request include?
A complete request gets a complete quote back. For hampers, include:
- Hamper name and quantity per tier, plus a few spares for each.
- Branding: which layers (box, sleeve, card, one item) and your vector logo.
- Card text and who signs it, or a note that you want a personalised card per recipient.
- Dietary needs: whether any recipients need a hamper without sweets or particular foods, so the quote can suggest a design or a swap.
- Delivery list: offices with a named receiver, and home addresses with PIN codes for remote staff.
- The date you need them by, working back from Dhanteras on Wednesday 27 October 2027 if gifts are handed out before the festive leave.

Frequently Asked Questions
What do corporate Diwali hampers cost per unit?
In our range, the most compact Diwali hampers start under ₹400 per unit, the widest choice sits between ₹1,000 and ₹2,500, and premium designs run from ₹3,500 to around ₹10,000. These are indicative product prices; branding, packaging, GST and delivery are confirmed in your written quote.
Can we change the items in a ready hamper?
Ask in your quote request. Some swaps are possible, for example replacing one item for dietary reasons. If you want to change most of the contents, building your own box is usually simpler.
Can the hamper box carry our company logo?
Yes. The usual options are a printed or debossed logo on the box, a branded sleeve, and a printed greeting card, with custom branded packaging on request. The method is confirmed per product in your quote, with a mockup where available.
Are there Diwali hampers without sweets?
Several hampers are built around non-food centrepieces such as a lamp, a desk set, a tech item or a wellness set. Check the product photo, and mention dietary needs in your quote request so the written quote confirms every item.
Should employees and clients get the same hamper?
Usually not. Employees in one tier should all get the same design, chosen for usefulness. Clients often get fewer, better pieces in a higher band, with a personalised card. Using the same box style for both keeps the programme consistent.
Can different hamper tiers go to different cities in one order?
Yes. One order can cover several hamper designs and be split across offices and home addresses across India. List each tier, quantity and address in your quote request.
When should we order Diwali hampers for 2027?
Lakshmi Puja is on Friday 29 October 2027, with Dhanteras on Wednesday 27 October. Shortlist designs and request a quote by August, approve branding mockups by early September, and aim for delivery the week before Dhanteras. Your quote confirms the timeline for your quantity and branding.
