Prices are exact shelf prices in rupees, read from Amazon.in on 5 October 2026: we opened each product page and checked the price, the currency and that the item was in stock. Prices move with sales and the festive season, so check at the shop. The links open a search at Amazon.in or Flipkart, with no affiliate tracking: if a link ever earns us a commission, it will not change what we recommend.

How to choose

  • Look at what is worn out, then replace it with a better one.
  • A flask, a wallet or a good pen is used daily, which is why they keep winning.
  • For a dad who has everything, choose something to eat, such as dry fruits or sweets, or plan a day out together.
