1Jewellery & Watches
A substantial-feeling gift that's easier to get right than gold.

- Not for: someone who only wears gold, or has a metal allergy you don't know about

2Bags & Travel
Go versatile unless you know their style well.
- Before you buy: go versatile — a neutral colour and a shape she'd use daily — unless you know her style well.

- Not for: someone who wears prescription glasses — unless you're getting prescription sunglasses made

4Fashion & Accessories
A dependable, everyday gift — a Raksha Bandhan favourite for brothers.
- Before you buy: look at how they pay: mostly UPI and cards means a slim card holder; cash means a bifold with a note section.
- Not for: someone who recently bought a wallet they like — wallets are replaced rarely
