Tier matrix — matching gift value to recipient seniority
Corporate gifting only works when the gift signal matches the recipient signal. We use a four-tier matrix: Tier 1 (₹500–₹800) for desk-level recipients and bulk distribution drives — typically a 250g flavoured almond pouch with branded sleeve. Tier 2 (₹800–₹1,500) for mid-managers and reliable vendors — 500g mixed-nut combo or two-flavour gift box. Tier 3 (₹1,500–₹3,500) for senior leaders, key clients and channel partners — a curated wooden gift box with 4–6 SKUs covering almonds, cashews, pistachios and one premium speciality like silver-coated mishri. Tier 4 (₹3,500–₹10,000+) for board members, embassy gifting and ambassador-level clients — premium hampers featuring dates, kesar pistas, saffron-laced sweets and bespoke packaging. Quantity scales matter as much as quality — for orders above 500 units we offer co-branded sleeves, custom-printed cards and dedicated dispatch slots at /wholesale.
How to use — Diwali, year-end, and event-based corporate calendars
Smart corporates plan three drops a year: Diwali (October-November), New Year/year-end (December-January) and a goodwill mid-year drop tied to an internal milestone. For Diwali, lead times must be 30–45 days because the entire industry contracts simultaneously — we recommend booking at least by mid-September. For year-end gifting, the December lull means logistics are cleaner and you can negotiate better customisation. Mid-year drops (Independence Day hampers, founder's day, fiscal-year-end) are the underused goldmine — they avoid the noise of festive periods and your gift gets remembered. Build a 4-SKU base of California almonds, whole cashews, plus a flavoured-makhana SKU and a sweets line.

Pala-G recommendations — corporate-tested SKUs and combos
Three combos that consistently perform for our corporate clients: first, the "Classic Trio" — 250g California almonds, 250g whole cashews, 250g salted pistachios in a wooden box with custom card insert (Tier 2, around ₹1,200 per unit at scale). Second, the "Festive Hamper" — 4 SKUs plus a 100g speciality silver-coated mishri or kaju katli, in a magnetic-flip presentation box (Tier 3, ~₹2,500 per unit). Third, the "Embassy Box" — 6–8 SKUs featuring premium Medjool dates, kesar pistachios, anjeer Afghan grade and bespoke labelling (Tier 4, ₹5,000+). Pala-G is FSSAI certified (Lic. 23323001002867) — invoice-ready GST documentation, B2B compliance, MOQ flexibility from 50 units, and same-day dispatch on orders before 2 PM IST when stock is in.
What is the minimum order quantity for corporate gifting?
Pala-G accepts corporate orders from 50 units (250g) onwards. Below 50 units you can still order via the consumer site, but custom branding and tier pricing kick in from 100 units. For 500+ units we provide co-branded sleeves, custom cards and dedicated dispatch slots.
How far in advance should I book Diwali corporate gifts?
Book by mid-September for Diwali delivery (late October to early November). The industry contracts simultaneously around the festival, so 30–45 days lead time prevents stock-out and rush-fee surprises.
Can I customise the packaging and branding?
Yes. We offer co-branded sleeves and custom-printed cards at 100+ units, and full custom-printed boxes at 500+ units. For embassy-grade hampers we work directly with a stationery partner for premium folders, ribbons and inserts.
Do you provide GST invoices for corporate accounts?
Yes — every Pala-G corporate order ships with a GST-compliant invoice (GSTIN 07AQIPG7351G1ZU). We support input-credit reclaim for B2B buyers and can issue annual consolidated statements on request.
