Where Can New Candle Businesses Buy Fragrance Oil Wholesale?
Share
Do I need a GST number to buy wholesale fragrance oil? No GST number requirement is stated for ordering on the listed store. If you are registered and want a GST invoice, ask on WhatsApp when you order and send your GSTIN. See the documents.
What should the first order be? Testers, not stock. Six 15 g testers plus wax, wicks and jars for six test candles cost ₹2,215.82 in our plan. Production sizes come in the second order. See the three-order plan.
What documents should I ask for? A GST invoice (if registered), the MSDS for each oil (handling and safety), and the IFRA certificate (usage limits by product type). All are available on request from CSI on WhatsApp.
Two ways to buy at wholesale sizes
New businesses often assume wholesale means a trade account, a large minimum order and a price list you only see after proving you are a real business. Some suppliers work that way. For a new candle brand, what matters is simpler: can you buy the oils you need, at production sizes, at a price you can see, without committing to more than you can sell? At CSI there are two routes, and a new business will use the first for months before it needs the second.
| Listed store | WhatsApp quote | |
|---|---|---|
| What you can buy | Any oil at any listed size, 15 g to 1 kg | Quantities above the listed packs; mixed production orders |
| Minimum order | None stated | Ask; none published |
| Price | Visible on each product page | Quoted; no discount figure published |
| Sizes in stock | 15 g: 51 oils · 50 g: 81 · 100 g: 79 · 500 g: 64 · 1 kg: 73 | Ask for stock depth on large quantities |
| GST invoice, MSDS, IFRA | On request on WhatsApp | Ask in the same message as the quote |
| Best for a new business | Orders one and two | Order three onward, once one oil passes 1 kg |
The listed store already sells at the sizes most people mean by wholesale. A 1 kg of Citrus Lemon is ₹2,832.00, and for 24 oils the kilo is at least 5% cheaper per gram than the 100 g. For 52 oils the kilo is within 1% of the 100 g per gram, so a new business loses nothing by buying 100 g or 500 g until its sales justify more. Wholesale Fragrance Oils With Low Minimum Order Quantity covers the gap between listed packs and a quote in detail, and Where to Buy Candle Fragrance Oils at Wholesale Prices in India covers where to buy at wholesale prices more broadly.
The three-order plan
The plan below is back-timed from Diwali. Soy candles need a cure of a week or two before a fair hot-throw test, and delivery takes time that this guide does not quote. So the first order has to go out now and contain only what you need to decide. The second order follows the decision.
| Item | Size | Price | Covers |
|---|---|---|---|
| Spicy Cinnamon | 15 g | ₹116.00 | 1 × 200 g candle at 7.5% |
| Pumpkin Spice | 15 g | ₹106.20 | 1 × 200 g candle at 7.5% |
| Raat Ki Rani | 15 g | ₹130.00 | 1 × 200 g candle at 7.5% |
| Palo Santo | 15 g | ₹106.20 | 1 × 200 g candle at 7.5% |
| Bergamot Amber | 15 g | ₹105.02 | 1 × 200 g candle at 7.5% |
| Neroli | 15 g | ₹118.00 | 1 × 200 g candle at 7.5% |
| Luxury Soy Wax CSI 464 | 1 kg + 500 g | ₹767.40 | 6 × 185 g = 1,110 g, 390 g spare |
| Eco Candle Wicks Thin C1 | 10 | ₹59.00 | 6 used, 4 spare |
| White Matte Glass Jar | 2 × pack of 5 | ₹708.00 | 6 used, 4 spare |
| Total | ₹2,215.82 | Oils ₹681.42 |
The documents a new business needs
Paperwork is what separates a supplier you can build a business on from one you cannot. Three documents matter for fragrance oil. None depends on order size at CSI; all are available on request on WhatsApp. The table sets out what each one is for in plain terms; it is general information, not legal or tax advice.
| Document | What it is | Who will ask you for it | When to request it |
|---|---|---|---|
| GST invoice | A tax invoice showing the supplier's and your GST details | Your accountant, if you are GST-registered and account for input tax | With every order once you are registered; send your GSTIN |
| MSDS (material safety data sheet) | The supplier's safety and handling information for an oil, including hazards and storage | You, for safe handling; some stockists and workspace landlords | With the first production order of each oil |
| IFRA certificate | A statement of the maximum use levels for an oil in different product types under IFRA standards | Stockists, gifting and corporate clients, anyone checking your candle is formulated within limits | With the first production order of each oil |
Two practical points. First, ask with the production order, not the tester. You will not know which oils you are using until order two, and that is when a stockist or corporate client is most likely to ask. Second, keep them filed by oil. When a gifting client asks for the IFRA certificate for the scent in their candle, you should be able to send it the same day. This page does not state any individual oil's IFRA limit or flash point; those are on each oil's documents, so ask for them.
The production order, oil by oil
Suppose three of the six testers pass: Raat Ki Rani, Spicy Cinnamon and Bergamot Amber. Order two buys them at the sizes the festive run needs, choosing the size by each oil's ladder.

| Total | ₹21,267.00 | 75 candles · ₹283.56 materials each |
Order two costs ₹21,267.00 and makes 75 candles of 200 g, at an average material cost of ₹283.56 each. Fragrance is ₹7,756.00 of that, about 36%. Material cost excludes labour, packaging, freight and GST. Together with order one, the whole plan is ₹23,482.82. If your plan is smaller, scale the production sizes down: 100 g of each winner makes six candles, and Low MOQ Fragrance Oils for Small Candle Businesses shows how far smaller budgets go.
First-order mistakes to avoid
Two more are worth naming. Choosing a supplier on the tester alone: check that the production size of each winner is in stock before the tests, not after. On 24 September 2026, 13 in-stock oils have their 1 kg out of stock; Buy Professional Candle Fragrance Oils in Small Quantities covers that continuity check. And treating wholesale as a status: the listed 1 kg is already a wholesale size, and for most oils the 100 g costs the same per gram. A new business does not need to qualify for anything to buy well.
Once the first season is through, the questions move to choosing a long-term supplier and running regular orders. Best Fragrance Oil Supplier for Candle Startups in India gives a checklist for comparing suppliers, and How to Choose a Long-Term Fragrance Oil Supplier for a Growing Candle Brand covers choosing one for the long term.
CANDLEMAKINGSUPPLIESINDIA supplies raw materials, not finished candles. This page tells a new business to start with ₹2,215.82 of testers rather than a large wholesale order, and to use our listed store rather than a quote for its first two orders. Both mean smaller first orders for us, and both are what a new business should do.
Every oil and wax price on this page comes from live CSI listings pulled on 24 September 2026. Wick and jar prices are those verified for Blog 760 on 10 September 2026. Order totals, candle counts and per-candle costs are plain arithmetic on listed prices. The document descriptions are general information about what each document is for, not legal or tax advice.
The timeline is a planning sketch from the pull date, not a delivery promise; no delivery time is quoted. The six testers and three winners are illustrations. For a GST invoice, MSDS, IFRA certificates, stock confirmation or a quote above 1 kg, message us on WhatsApp at +91 7397976926.

Non-price figures and assumptions: Test candles are 200 g at 7.5% (15 g oil, 185 g wax); production candles 200 g at 8% (16 g oil, 184 g wax). Material cost covers oil, wax, wick and jar and excludes labour, packaging, freight and GST. Price-break counts (24 of 91 oils ≥5% cheaper per gram at 1 kg; 52 within ±1%) and continuity counts (13 in-stock oils with the 1 kg out of stock) are arithmetic on listed data. CSI 464's up-to-10% load is the wax maker's stated formulation maximum, not a regulatory limit. Document descriptions are general, not legal or tax advice; no individual oil's IFRA limit or flash point is stated. The timeline is a planning sketch; no delivery time, free-shipping threshold or discount is quoted. Diwali 2026 falls on 8 November.
