Your mould count, not your wax order, sets pillar output

Wax is the easy part of a 1,000-pillar run. You can order it in an afternoon. What limits you is how many moulds you own, how long each pillar sits before release, and how many hands are free for top-up pours. Plan those first, then order wax to match.

Work backwards from the moulds

Say you own 20 moulds of one size and each produces one pillar per pouring day once you include setting, top-up and release. That is 20 pillars a day, and 1,000 pillars take 50 pouring days. Double the moulds and you halve the days. No quantity of wax changes that arithmetic.

Now set it against the calendar. Diwali falls on 8 November 2026 and Dhanteras on 6 November. If your pillars must reach shops before then, count back your pouring days, add packing and dispatch, and add CSI's 10% festive buffer to the pillar count for breakages and late orders.

Ordering wax in step with pouring

Soy Pillar Wax costs the same per kilogram at every pack, so there is no reason to take 100 kg in one delivery unless you have the dry storage for it. Two lots of 50 kg at ₹30,000.00 each cost the same as 100 kg at ₹60,000.00. For quantities above the listed 10 kg pack, ask CSI for a quote on WhatsApp, and ask about timing, since delivery times are not published.

Microcrystalline Wax Slab is listed only to 1 kg, at ₹299.00. At 5% micro, 100 kg of pillar wax needs 5 kg of micro, which is five slabs. Order them with the first wax delivery, not the second.

Changing the recipe halfway through the run. A different micro percentage or oil in week three gives you two slightly different pillars on the same shelf. Fix the recipe on your trial batch and hold it for the whole run.

Keep a batch sheet

For every pouring day, write the wax bag used, micro and oil weights, room conditions and the number of pillars released without fault. When a problem appears, the sheet shows you which day it started. At this scale, a fault found at pillar 600 that began at pillar 200 is expensive.

Buy moulds before wax
If the run looks too long, the fix is more moulds of the same size. CSI's Moulds collection lists 62 products; buy identical ones so every pillar matches.

Argue against interest
Buy the wax your candle needs, not the bag that looks professional.
We would sell more by telling you to buy 10 kg. On most of our waxes it is not cheaper per kilogram, and wax you cannot use before summer is a storage problem.
Price the candle, not the kilogram.

Why trust this guide

CANDLEMAKINGSUPPLIESINDIA supplies raw materials, not finished candles. We publish every pack price, so every per-kilogram and per-candle figure here can be checked against the product pages — including the ones that show a bigger bag is not cheaper.

Prices are taken from live CSI stock in September 2026. Where a product page does not publish a specification, this guide says so rather than filling the gap.

Figures verified September 2026 (CSI live pricing): Luxury Soy Wax CSI 464 (flakes): ₹260.00 / 500 g, ₹507.40 / 1 kg, ₹2,537.00 / 5 kg, ₹5,074.00 / 10 kg; Soy Pillar Wax: ₹300.00 / 500 g, ₹600.00 / 1 kg, ₹3,000.00 / 5 kg, ₹6,000.00 / 10 kg; Beeswax Pellets (white or yellow): ₹800.00 / 1 kg, ₹4,000.00 / 5 kg, ₹8,000.00 / 10 kg; Fully Refined Paraffin Wax Pellets: ₹177.00 / 500 g, ₹354.00 / 1 kg; Microcrystalline Wax Slab: ₹149.00 / 500 g, ₹299.00 / 1 kg. Eco Candle Wicks Thin (C1) ₹5.90 each; Thick (C2) ₹9.44 each. Microcrystalline and Vybar usage rates are as stated on their product pages. Collection counts: Candle Wax 15, Fragrance Oils 93, Candle Wicks 7, Containers 81, Moulds 62, Dyes 25.

Assumptions: Fragrance load 8% of total candle weight, so wax is 92% of the fill (a 200 g candle = 184 g wax + 16 g oil). Order plans add a 5% wastage allowance (10% where stated for festive buffers). "Cheapest listed packs" is the lowest-cost combination of listed pack sizes, preferring fewer bags when prices tie within a few rupees. Candle counts are rounded down. Costs are core materials only and exclude jar, label, packaging, labour, freight and GST unless stated. Wax stated fragrance maximums are the wax maker's formulation limits, not regulatory limits. Pack sizes not listed on the store (2, 20, 25, 100 kg) are shown as combinations of listed packs; larger quantities are quoted on WhatsApp. Diwali 2026 falls on 8 November.
