How does a power-bank diary compare to a standard diary?
A power-bank diary bundles an 8,000 mAh battery into the cover, so it's heavier and priced ₹1,000–₹4,250 versus ₹140–₹450 for a standard PU diary, but it doubles as a usable tech gift beyond the writing pages. Choose it when your team wants one gift that covers both stationery and charging needs.
Standard PU or cork diary
- ₹140–₹450 per unit
- Lightweight, easy to brand with foil logo
- Best for large headcounts
Power-bank or leather diary
- ₹1,000–₹4,250 per unit
- Doubles as a tech gift or premium keepsake
- Best for onboarding kits and client/leadership gifts
How is a logo branded onto each diary material?
Meru Gifting foil-stamps logos on PU and leather covers, screen-prints or UV-prints on cork and fabric-panel diaries for multi-colour artwork, and laser-engraves the metal plate on power-bank diaries. A free digital mock-up is shared for approval before production on any material.

Do diary gifts qualify for tax-free employee gifting?
Employee gifts up to ₹5,000 per person per financial year are exempt as a perquisite under Income-tax Rule 3(7)(iv); the excess is taxable to the employee. GST input tax credit on gifts is blocked under Section 17(5)(h) of the CGST Act, and gifts above ₹50,000 per employee in a year are treated as supply. Meru Gifting issues GST invoices on all diary orders. Confirm with your CA.

Which diary material is most budget-friendly for large teams?

What is a power-bank diary?
A power-bank diary builds an 8,000 mAh battery into the notebook cover, priced ₹1,000-₹4,250, combining stationery and tech utility in one gift.
Is leather or PU better for a premium corporate diary?
Leather, as in the Lekhan stationery set (₹2,999), gives a premium, long-lasting finish; PU with gold trim (₹450) is a lighter-cost alternative that still reads well.

The minimum order for branded diaries across all materials is 50 pieces.
