Who are you gifting?

1. 1

   Photography and design books — only if it matches a passion.

   • Your friend
   • Reader
   • Homebody

   • Before you buy: only buy on a subject they already love; a beautiful book on the wrong subject is a paperweight.
   • Not for: someone in a small flat with no table space

   Flowers & Plants

   Desk plants & succulents₹200 – ₹900

   Low-maintenance and longer-lasting than cut flowers.

   • Your friend
   • Homebody

   Flowers & Plants

   Indoor plants₹150 – ₹3,000

   For the home: easy-care plants, statement plants and bonsai.

   • Your friend
   • Homebody

   • Before you buy: match the plant to their light: a dim flat needs a snake plant or ZZ, not a fiddle-leaf fig.
   • Not for: someone who travels a lot, or has no light at home

   Home & Decor

   Scented candles₹400 – ₹1,500

   A dependable gift — mild scents are the safer default.

   • Your friend
   • Homebody

   • Before you buy: pick mild scents — vanilla, sandalwood, fresh linen — unless you know their taste; strong florals divide people.

How this list is made: only two hard rules — it stays within your budget and never shows what you asked to avoid. Everything else ranks rather than removes, each pick shows which of your answers it matched, and nobody pays to appear here. How GiftScene works
