How Much to Budget Per Worker for Diwali Blankets: Real 2026 Rates
“What should I budget per worker for a Diwali blanket?” is the question every factory and contractor asks in September — and most suppliers dodge it. We won’t. Here are the real factory-direct rates, worked into actual per-worker cost bands, so you can set your budget before you ever pick up the phone.
Blankets are priced by the kilo, which is actually good news for budgeting: instead of being stuck with a fixed per-piece price, you set your per-worker figure and choose the weight that fits it. The two rates that drive everything are simple — mink at ₹210/kg and cloudy (super-soft) at ₹260/kg, plus 5% GST. Everything below flows from those two numbers.
The only formula you need
Blanket weight × per-kg rate = cost per worker
Lighter weight → lower cost. Heavier weight → warmer, more generous gift. You choose the balance.
Real per-worker cost bands (mink, ₹210/kg)
Using single-bed mink weights — the usual choice for worker gifting — here’s roughly what each lands at before bulk slab discounts:
To get the rupee figure, multiply the weight by ₹210 (e.g. a 1.7 kg mink ≈ ₹357 base, before GST and before your bulk slab). We keep the exact slab off the page because it moves with your quantity — that’s the number a quick call gives you.
Why we don’t print the final per-worker price: it genuinely depends on weight, quantity and whether you want cloudy or mink — and bulk slabs bring it down meaningfully at 100, 500, 1000+ pieces. A fixed number here would mislead you. Tell us your target and quantity, and you get the honest figure.
Budgeting for the premium tier (cloudy, ₹260/kg)
If you’re gifting supervisors or want a nicer overall gift, cloudy works the same way — just at ₹260/kg instead of ₹210, and in medium/heavy weights only. So a cloudy blanket costs a bit more per worker than a mink of the same weight, in exchange for that extra-soft, premium feel. Many businesses budget mink for the general workforce and cloudy for a smaller group of supervisors — a tiered kit that keeps the average per-head sensible while recognising key staff.

Per-worker budget questions, answered
How much should I budget per worker for a Diwali blanket?
It depends on the weight you choose, because blankets are priced per kilo — mink ₹210/kg, cloudy ₹260/kg. A lighter single-bed mink is the most economical; a mid-weight is the common worker-gift choice. Tell us your target per-head figure and we’ll match the weight to it.
How is the per-worker cost calculated?
Weight × per-kg rate, plus 5% GST. For example, a 1.7 kg mink is roughly ₹357 base before GST and before bulk discounts. Your final per-head figure drops further with quantity — that’s the slab rate we quote on a call.
Does the price drop for large worker orders?
Yes — slab rates step down as headcount rises, so the best per-head economics appear at 500 and 1000+ pieces. The base per-kg rate is the starting point; volume improves it. Share your quantity for the exact slab.
Should I budget for mink or cloudy?
Mink (₹210/kg) is the value choice for a general workforce; cloudy (₹260/kg) is the premium feel for supervisors or a nicer overall gift. Many businesses budget a mix — mink for most, cloudy for a few — to keep the average sensible.
