Special Holiday Traditions You’ll Only Find in India

In India, there are many traditions that are simply fascinating. Many you’ll find repeated daily, such as the Buddhist chanting of Ladakh, where the lamas (priests) will chant and recite teachings from their Lord Buddha for believers. This is often accompanied by drums, cymbals, and trumpets! Another tradition you’ll find repeated during festivals in Jharkhand, West Bengal and Odisha, is the captivating Chhau dance featuring dancers in brightly colored costumes and masks. This unique form of storytelling combines athletic skills of acrobatics and martial arts that is showcased every spring. Of course, there are a ton of annual holidays to enjoy as well — below are just a few of our favorites.
 

  • Holi Festival — You’ll find this bright festival celebrates colors, love, and Spring! Naturally, you’ll find this festal happens around early March — and brings a rush of color and joy. Literally! People rush to dance in the streets while throwing water and colored dye powders. They do this to drive out negative energies and evil spirits and hope for an abundant spring harvest.
     
  • Christmas — Who doesn’t love Christmas? The people of India certainly do, and they kick off the festivities by going to mass on Christmas Eve for blessing and a time of reflection. Influenced by Western culture, it’s not uncommon to find a roast turkey as the star of their meal on Christmas Day. You will find homes adorned with glittering lights, poinsettia flowers, candles, and even paper streamers! Inside, mango or banana trees are decorated, and nearby, a nativity scene. In Northwest India, you’ll probably hear carols sung throughout by the tribal Christians of the Bhil folk. Down in Southern India, to symbolize how Jesus is the light of the world, you will see small clay lamps on top of the flat roofs of their houses.
     

Our Favorite Birthday Traditions in India

Birthdays in India have traditions, including an exciting mix of both Hindu and Western influences. The well-known “Happy Birthday” song is sung, and afterward, the birthday person feeds each guest a small piece of cake by hand. However, before all of the fun songs and cake, it is typical to get up at 4 in the morning to visit a temple to receive blessings of good fortune from the priest of the year to come. Another great tradition, especially if you love sweets, is that treats such as laddu are to be enjoyed before the main meal. Birthdays are an excellent opportunity to send something special to the one you love in India if you can’t be there in person.
 

Everything You Need to Know About Sending Corporate Gifts to India

In India, business dealings are quite formal. Exchanging gifts usually only happens once your business relationship has been well established. Of course, if you are invited to a function, don’t show up empty-handed! Bring some simple treats, such as quality chocolates or other quality sweets. When giving the gift, be sure to do so with both hands. If you must use one hand, take care to use your right hand, as using just your left is considered very rude.

When giving gifts like office supplies, take extra care to avoid leather goods! In general corporate gifts are best given at the end of closing a business deal or to celebrate a holiday.
 

Love 101: The Best Romantic Gifts to India

There’s no such thing as over the top when sending romantic gifts to India. You’ll certainly want to surprise your love on major events, such as Valentine’s Day, their birthday, and of course, your anniversary. But to be truly romantic, you’ll also want to sprinkle in sending some gifts just because you miss them! Choose from fancy bath sets to help your stressed partner take a night to relax and maybe even with a bottle of wine too. Or go the sweet route with a stuffed teddy bear so they can feel like they’re hugging you when you’re far away. No matter the gift you give them, it is always the thought behind it that counts and a bond that is stronger than any gift.
