Who are you gifting?

1. 1

   Books & Stationery

   Books & book sets₹300 – ₹1,200

   Low effort, reads as thoughtful when it fits their interests.

   • Your dad
   • Retirement
   • Reader

   • Before you buy: find out what they've read recently — a book in a genre they already love beats a bestseller they won't open.
   • Not for: someone who doesn't read for pleasure

   Art & Craft

   Custom portraits & illustrations₹800 – ₹8,000

   A painting or illustration of them — from a photo you share.

   • Your dad
   • Retirement
   • Artsy and crafty

   • Before you buy: share a sharp, well-lit photo where faces are clear — the portrait can only be as good as the photo.
   • Not for: a last-minute gift — made-to-order work rarely arrives in days

   Personalised Gifts

   Engraved plaques & keepsakes₹800 – ₹3,500

   Works only if the engraving says something specific.

   • Your dad
   • Retirement

   • Before you buy: write the exact text first — names, dates and the one line that makes it theirs. Generic lines are what make these feel like office stock.
   • Not for: someone who dislikes clutter and has nowhere to display things

   Gourmet & Food

   Tea & coffee gifts₹500 – ₹2,000

   Premium tea and coffee, gift sets, and the things to brew them.

   • Your dad
   • Retirement

   • Before you buy: ask how they brew: whole beans need a grinder, and ground coffee must suit their method — coarse for a French press, fine for espresso.
   • Not for: someone who drinks one brand only and won't switch

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
