Every year the same thing happens: as December approaches, printing presses across Sivakasi run at full stretch, and late orders compete for the same machines, the same board and the same dispatch slots. If you are buying calendars in bulk — for your customers or to resell — when you order matters almost as much as what you order.
Why calendar season fills up fast
Almost every calendar in the country is needed on the same day: 1 January. Presses, dealers and businesses all place their orders in the same few months, and each order still has to be printed, finished, fitted with its date pad, printed with an advertisement and shipped. Capacity is large — but it is not unlimited.
A simple booking timeline
| When | What to do |
|---|---|
| As soon as bookings open | Browse designs, shortlist your sizes and finishes, and book your main quantities. |
| Early in the season | Confirm quantities design by design, and finalise your advertisement text and colours. |
| Mid-season | Top up popular designs and add larger sizes for your most important customers. |
| Before December | Receive, check and distribute — ahead of the New Year rush. |
Four reasons to book early
- Your choice of designs. Popular designs are ordered by many buyers. Early bookings get them first.
- Time for your advertisement. Printing your shop name, address and phone number takes a step of its own — leave room for it.
- A protected rate. Paper and board prices change with the market. Booking early helps you avoid a price increase later in the season.
- Calendars in hand before the year turns. A calendar that arrives in January has already missed its moment.
Don’t forget Tamil New Year
Many businesses in Tamil Nadu also give calendars around Tamil New Year in April. If that is your tradition, plan it as a second, smaller booking.
