Calendar and Diary Printing in Palakollu
A single sheet wall calendar is about 45 rupees each at five hundred copies and a twelve sheet wall calendar about 110. Order by the first week of November. Calendars are printed once a year by everybody at the same time and the paper and the press both run out.
Business calendars are the cheapest advertising a shop here buys, because they stay on a wall for twelve months in the room where household decisions get made. Feed dealers, medical shops, jewellers, hardware and rice mills order them every year. The only genuinely hard part is the deadline, and it is not our deadline. It is the season.

How it works, step by step
Order in the first week of November
the real deadlineEverybody prints calendars in the same six weeks. Paper stocks tighten, the press fills, and the binding houses queue. Ordering in October is comfortable, November is normal, December is a scramble and January is pointless.
Choose the format and the photographs
1 dayYour own shop and products, or stock imagery of deities and landscapes which is what most business calendars here use. Bring what you want on it.
Dates and panchangam
we handle itTelugu festivals, muhurthams and panchangam details are set by us and checked twice, because a wrong festival date on five hundred calendars hanging in five hundred houses is not a correctable mistake.
Proof
1 to 2 daysCheck your phone number and check three festival dates at random against a reliable panchangam. Then approve.
Print, bind and deliver
5 to 10 daysLonger in December. Delivered in bundles of fifty for distribution.
Which calendar format
| Format | Cost at 500 | Goes where | Best for |
|---|---|---|---|
| Single sheet A3 | 45 | Kitchen or shop wall | Widest distribution at lowest cost |
| Four sheet | 88 | Living room wall | More space for imagery |
| Twelve sheet | 110 | Office or good room | Premium customers and suppliers |
| Desk spiral | 98 | Office desk | B2B, professionals, offices |
| Table tent | 78 | Counter or reception | Shops and clinics |
| Diary | 225 | Carried | Staff gifts and key customers |
Most businesses here do best with a large run of single sheet calendars for general distribution and a small run of desk calendars or diaries for their twenty most important customers.
What we have learned printing calendars every year
- Check three festival dates yourself against a panchangam you trust before approving. We check twice, but a wrong Sankranti or Ugadi date on five hundred calendars hanging in five hundred houses cannot be corrected, and it is the one error nobody forgives.
- Put the phone number at the bottom of every sheet on a multi sheet calendar, not only on the cover. By March the cover has been torn off and thrown away in most houses, and with it goes your advertising for the remaining nine months.
- Order fifteen percent more than your list. Calendars get asked for by people who are not on your list, right through January, and a second short run in December is both expensive and often impossible.
- A single sheet A3 at 45 rupees reaching five hundred kitchens beats a twelve sheet at 110 reaching two hundred. Kitchens are where household purchase decisions get made, and the kitchen wall takes the cheap calendar, not the handsome one.
