Dussehra 2026 · Tuesday 20 October

The first gift of the season, and the one nobody plans for.

Dussehra falls nineteen days before Diwali, which makes it the first festive budget released and the last one anybody remembers to spend. Branded chocolate boxes, handcrafted in Hyderabad and delivered across Bengaluru, Mumbai, Pune and Gurugram.

Why Dussehra

Auspicious beginnings are a gifting occasion.

It lands before the noise

By the first week of November every desk in the country has four hampers on it. A Dussehra box arrives alone, three weeks earlier, and is the only one the recipient actually opens carefully.

Vijayadashami is a starting gun

New ventures, new vehicles, new account openings — Dussehra is the day Indian business chooses to begin things. A gift that marks a beginning reads differently from one that marks a festival.

Smaller formats, wider lists

Dussehra budgets tend to be per-head rather than per-relationship. The printed rigid boxes from ₹695 cover a whole floor; the Crystal Resin pieces are held back for Diwali and the people who matter most.

Production Windows

The calendar decides this, not the budget.

Branded boxes are hand-finished in the atelier, and the schedule fills in the order enquiries arrive. Three windows, counted back from the date.

What We Send

Two families of box, one chocolate.

The same chocolate goes into both. What changes is the box, the price per head and who it is for.

Branding & Personalisation

Make it unmistakably yours.

Custom branding starts at 100 boxes. Artwork is proofed and signed off before production begins. Everything ships pan-India on temperature-controlled, cold-safe logistics from Hyderabad.

01

Gold foil logo on the lid

Your mark pressed in gold foil into the box lid — the same finish we use for our own.

02

Printed sleeve

A full-wrap printed sleeve for campaign artwork, a message, or a co-branded lockup.

03

Custom box colour

Boxes matched to your brand palette rather than ours, across the full order.

04

Insert or greeting card

A printed card set inside the box — a note from leadership, or a line for the occasion.

Before You Order

The questions that decide it.

Dates, minimums, branding, allergens and delivery — the answers that decide whether this lands in time.

What is the minimum order for branded Dussehra chocolate gifting?

100 boxes for custom-branded gifting — a gold foil logo on the lid, a printed sleeve, a custom box colour or a printed insert. Below 100, we supply from the standing range in Lèvore presentation, which carries no minimum beyond a single box.

When do Dussehra orders close?

Three windows, counted back from 20 October. A fully bespoke build — custom box colour, bespoke inserts, name cards — needs artwork signed off by 22 September. Branded lids on our stock formats close 2 October. Unbranded boxes from ready stock close 12 October. Earlier is always safer: Dussehra and Diwali production overlap, and the calendar fills in the order enquiries arrive.

Do you deliver to Hyderabad, Bengaluru, Mumbai, Pune & Gurugram and Gurugram?

Yes. All five are served from our Hyderabad atelier on temperature-controlled, cold-safe logistics. Hyderabad is same-city and fastest; Bengaluru typically lands in one day, Mumbai and Pune in two to three, and Gurugram and the wider Delhi NCR in three to four. Exact dates are confirmed at the time of order.

Can one order be split across several cities and addresses?

Yes, routinely. Send us the recipient list and we label, pack and despatch each box individually — the usual arrangement for leadership and client gifting spread across offices.

What does it cost at volume?

Premium printed rigid boxes run from ₹695 to ₹1,795 per box, with rates stepping down at 100, 250 and 500 units. Crystal Resin and Signature boxes run from ₹2,000 to ₹19,999 per box. Branding on the lid and printed inserts are included from 250 boxes.

Is the chocolate vegetarian? What about allergens?

Every Lèvore collection is vegetarian, with no gelatine and no alcohol. Products contain nuts, milk and soy, and are made in a facility that handles all three. Nut-free and sugar-free fills are made to order — tell us when you enquire.

How long does the chocolate keep?

At least three months from dispatch, printed on the base. Best within the first month, when the roast is still forward. Store cool, dry and out of direct sunlight — ideally 18 to 22°C, and not the refrigerator, where condensation dulls the shell. Every box travels sealed in high-density thermocol through temperature-controlled logistics, and can be delivered on the date you choose — including after the festival, when your team is back.

Do you invoice with GST and accept purchase orders?

Yes. We invoice with GST and work to purchase orders and standard corporate procurement processes. Ask for a formal quotation and we will issue one against your headcount and format.

Procurement questions — GST, purchase orders, pricing tiers? The corporate gifting FAQ covers those.
