Split it into batches
At 10 kg per melt, 193.2 kg is 20 batches. Pour the same wax, oil, load and wick in every batch, log each bag's date, and keep one candle per batch as a retained sample.
1,000 jars of one 200 g candle: what the ceiling price is for
A thousand identical 200 g candles is a bestseller order: one scent that has proven itself, now made at a volume where the wax bill approaches a lakh of rupees. The listed-pack cost for CSI 464, ₹98,188.20, is the figure to take into a quote conversation, not the figure you should pay without asking.
Compare waxes on their 100 kg figures
The fact sheet costs 100 kg of each wax from listed packs: CSI 464 at ₹50,740.00, Natural Soy Pearl Wax at ₹42,480.00 from two 50 kg bags, and Eco Soy CSI 400 at ₹39,920.00 from twenty 5 kg bags. Your order is roughly twice that. The cheaper waxes are tempting at this volume, but switching is not a pricing decision alone.
Pearl and Eco Soy CSI 400 publish no fragrance load, and the Eco Soy CSI 400 page asks for fragrance to go in at 80–90°C. A candle developed on CSI 464 has to be re-tested in any new wax: wick, load, pour temperature and finish. Do that with a 1 kg bag before you move a thousand-unit order.
The oil can cost as much as the wax
At 8%, each 200 g candle takes 16 g of oil, and one kilogram of oil covers 62 candles. A thousand candles need 16 kg of oil before wastage. Candle oils run from ₹2,832.00 per kg for Citrus Lemon to ₹7,646.00 per kg for Dark Vanilla, so the scent can move the budget further than the wax does. Get both priced together.
Stage it to your cash and your shelf
About 193 kg of wax is nineteen or twenty bags. Taking them all at once ties up cash and floor space for weeks. If the order ships to your buyer in tranches, buy in tranches too, and keep a retained candle from the first delivery so later bags can be compared against it.

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.
