Christmas gifts for colleagues, employees and office staff: 42 ideas in ₹

A gift for a colleague should be neutral, useful and in budget: tea, chocolates, a candle, a desk item or a card game for the office. A gift from a manager to the team can be a little bigger, and office helpers usually appreciate sweets or a cake. These ideas are sorted by price, each with the reason it suits people you see every day but may not know well.
