Corporate gifting in Mumbai has one problem the rest of India does not: distribution. The product decision is the easy part. Getting six hundred hampers to Lower Parel, BKC, Andheri, Powai and Navi Mumbai in the same week, through traffic, building security and a shared reception desk, is where orders actually go wrong.
This guide covers how to plan a Mumbai corporate gifting order, what to check before choosing a vendor, what companies spend, and the Diwali 2026 dates that matter.
Plan the distribution before you pick the hamper
Most Mumbai companies are spread across more than one address, and the split is rarely even. Work this out first, because it changes the quantity, the packaging and the dates.
List every location with a headcount. Head office, branch offices, the plant if there is one, and the people working from home.
Name one person per location. Consignments addressed to a company get left at a shared reception. Consignments addressed to a named person get signed for.
Decide office or home. Office is cheaper and simpler. Home delivery lands better but needs a clean address list with pincodes, collected about two weeks ahead.
Add spares. Two to five percent above headcount. In Mumbai a few boxes always end up at the wrong desk or the wrong tower.
What to check before choosing a vendor
Four questions separate a real supplier from someone passing your order along.
| Ask this | Why it matters |
|---|---|
| When will the hampers be packed? | Most gifting vendors buy dry fruits months ahead. Stale nuts reflect on your company, not theirs |
| Will each location get its own consignment and tracking? | Routing everything through head office means re-couriering, damaged boxes and double cost |
| Is branding included at my quantity? | There should be a clear threshold, usually around 50 boxes |
| Who do I call during Diwali week? | A named person with a direct number, not a general enquiry line |
What Mumbai companies spend per head
| Budget per head | What it buys | Usually chosen for |
|---|---|---|
| Rs 500 to 700 | Three varieties in a rigid gift box | Large teams, support and field staff |
| Rs 700 to 1,200 | Four to five varieties, festive outer packaging | The standard company wide hamper |
| Rs 1,200 to 2,000 | Premium tray or basket with a note card | Managers and key clients |
| Rs 2,000 and above | Signature hamper with speciality items | Leadership and strategic partners |
Keep one standard hamper for the whole company and a single higher tier for leadership. In an office where people sit together, visibly different gifts get compared.
Hampers that travel well
For multi location Mumbai orders, rigid boxes handle transit better than trays and baskets, which are better suited to hand delivery for a short client list.
| Hamper | Price | Good for |
|---|---|---|
| Sumewam Signature Trio | Rs 550 | Volume gifting, travels very well |
| Sumewam Luxury Trio Delight | Rs 615 | Same format, richer contents |
| Shahi Mewa Box | Rs 650 | Traditional festive look |
| House of Light Diwali Hamper | Rs 899 | The most picked company wide hamper |
| Blue Grandeur Gift Set, 4 jars | Rs 1,100 | Key accounts and senior staff |
| Shubh Labh Jhola Diwali Hamper | Rs 1,150 | Client gifting where presentation matters |
| The Botanica Box | Rs 1,450 | Leadership and top clients |

Timing a Mumbai handover
Diwali 2026 falls on Sunday, 8 November. Because it is a Sunday, the last office working day is Friday 6 November, which pulls the whole plan forward by a few days compared with a weekday Diwali.
| When | What to do |
|---|---|
| By 10 October | Lock headcount per location and budget per head |
| By 17 October | Confirm the hamper, send logo artwork, place the order |
| By 24 October | Approve the branding proof, share the location wise address list |
| 27 Oct to 1 Nov | Production and dispatch, consignment per location |
| 3 to 5 November | Delivery, so offices have Thursday and Friday to distribute |
Aim for delivery by Thursday 5 November. Leaving it to the last two days means boxes sitting with building security over a long weekend.
The details that decide how it lands
Freshness. Ask for the packing date. We pack and date every hamper on the day it ships rather than filling boxes from stock bought months earlier, and our packing process is ISO certified.
A named note card. Three lines signed by a named person, not by a department. It costs very little and it is the part people mention.
Light branding. Your logo on the sleeve reads as considered. A large logo across the lid reads as marketing, particularly for client gifts.
Paperwork. Every corporate order is invoiced with your company GSTIN, with per unit price, branding, delivery and taxes listed separately for internal approval.

FAQs
Can you deliver corporate gifts across Mumbai offices?
Yes. Share the location wise split at confirmation and each office receives its own consignment with separate tracking, rather than everything going to a head office that then has to re-courier boxes.
What is the minimum order for corporate gifting in Mumbai?
Corporate orders start at 10 hampers. Per unit pricing improves meaningfully at 50, 100 and 500 boxes, so it is better to confirm the full headcount in one order than to split it.
How much do Mumbai companies spend per employee on Diwali gifts?
Most spend between Rs 500 and Rs 1,200 per head, with Rs 700 to Rs 1,200 the common company wide standard and higher tiers kept for managers, clients and leadership.
Can you deliver to employees working from home in Mumbai?
Yes. Share a list with name, full address with pincode and phone number. Collect it about two weeks ahead, since a share of addresses always needs correction.
Can our logo be printed on the hampers?
Yes, on the box, sleeve, ribbon band or a printed note card. For orders above 50 boxes it is usually included. Send vector artwork two to three weeks before dispatch.
When should Mumbai offices receive Diwali gifts in 2026?
By Thursday 5 November. Diwali 2026 is on Sunday 8 November, so Friday 6 November is the last working day and offices need a day to distribute.
Do you provide a GST invoice?
Yes, with your company GSTIN, and the quotation lists product, branding, delivery and taxes separately so finance can approve it before you commit.
