Amazon Crayon Price October 2026: Rs. 3.04 to Rs. 43.42 a Shade

Rs. 85 for 28 shades — Rs. 3.04 each, the cheapest shade in this read of 61 listings. Note what it is not: it is not the biggest box here. Doms also sells a 50-shade oil pastel set at pick 13, and that one works out at Rs. 3.86 a shade — 27% more. The smaller tin from the same house is the cheaper one per shade, which is the opposite of how bulk normally works and the pattern repeats across two more brands on this page. Very well evidenced at 4.4 stars from 4,291 ratings. Erasable plastic crayons rather than wax, which is the listing's own description.

Rs. 156 for 50 shades — Rs. 3.12 each. This is the one large box on the shelf that does not carry a size penalty: it is the second-cheapest shade in the entire read and it comes with 4.3 stars from 5,276 ratings, the largest published sample seated. If you want the most colours for the least money per colour, this read points here. Note that Camlin's own 25-shade set at pick 8 is Rs. 3.52 a shade, so this is also the rare case where the bigger box is genuinely cheaper per unit — the exception rather than the rule on this page.

Rs. 40 is the smallest amount of money this shelf asks for, and at Rs. 3.33 a shade it is the fourth-cheapest shade too — a rare case where the cheapest box is also good value per unit. Hold it against pick 16: Faber-Castell's own 50-shade oil pastel set at Rs. 220 works out at Rs. 4.40 a shade, 32% dearer than this Rs. 40 box from the same brand. Wax crayons and oil pastels are different media that behave differently on paper, so this is a price observation and not a recommendation of one over the other. 4.1 stars from 225 ratings.

Rs. 80 for 24 shades, plus two glitter shades the listing includes. We have priced this at Rs. 3.33 using the 24 stated in the title rather than 26, because the glitter pair is described as an addition and counting promotional extras into a unit price is how unit prices get flattering. On the conservative count it still lands in the cheapest five shades of the read. 4.3 stars from 629 ratings. This is the kind of listing where the per-shade figure and the box price agree, which on this shelf is not guaranteed.

Rs. 95 for 28 shades — Rs. 3.39 each. Set beside pick 1 (Doms, 28 shades, Rs. 85, Rs. 3.04) this shows how tight the school band really is: two 28-shade tins from different houses, 35 paise a shade apart. Across the seventeen school-band listings on this page the whole range is Rs. 3.04 to Rs. 6.12, and thirteen of them sit between Rs. 3.00 and Rs. 4.50. This is a commodity priced like one. 4.1 stars from 308 ratings.

Rs. 170 for 50 shades — Rs. 3.40 each, which is good value on price alone. It is seated because it carries 3.7 stars from 143 ratings, the lowest average among the 21 and the only one below 4.0. On a shelf this tightly priced, the rating is doing more work than the price is. 143 ratings is a real sample rather than a handful, so the average is worth weighing; we have not bought or used the product and a star average is the listing's own published figure, not our assessment of it.

Rs. 86 for 25 shades — Rs. 3.44 each, 4.4 stars from 1,991 ratings. Worth a note on that number: in the wider 61-listing pull, the identical 1,991-rating pool appeared on more than one Faber-Castell erasable crayon listing at different prices — a 70mm set, a 110mm set and a 110mm gift pack. Pooling reviews across variants of one product line is standard retail practice and nothing here suggests otherwise, but the practical effect is that the rating count cannot separate those listings from each other. Only this one is seated, for that reason.

Rs. 88 for 25 shades — Rs. 3.52 each. Camlin's 50-shade set at pick 11 is Rs. 3.80 a shade, so here too the smaller box is the cheaper one per shade, by 8%. That makes three houses on this page doing the same thing: Doms (+27% on the bigger box), Faber-Castell (+32%) and Camlin (+8%). The one brand that goes the other way is the Kokuyo-branded Camlin line at pick 2. 4.2 stars from 676 ratings.

Rs. 43 for 12 extra-long wax crayons with gold and silver — Rs. 3.58 a shade. Perfectly ordinary pricing for this shelf. It is seated because its 4.3 stars rest on 35 ratings, the smallest sample among the 21, against the 5,276-rating pool at pick 2 three places above it. Both display a 4.3. The star is the same number; the evidence behind it is not remotely the same, which is why every card on this page prints the count beside the average.

Rs. 98 for 26 shades — Rs. 3.77 each. This is a useful card to hold in mind for Chapter Two, because the listing calls itself oil pastels and so does pick 18, which costs Rs. 38.71 a shade — more than ten times as much. Same two words on the tile, an order of magnitude between them, and Amazon's grid prints only the box price. We have not used either and make no claim that they are comparable products; pigment load, binder and lightfastness are real differences this grid does not publish. 4.3 stars from 70 ratings.

Rs. 190 for 50 shades — Rs. 3.80 each, against Rs. 3.52 for the same brand's 25-shade set at pick 8. Doubling the box costs you 8% more per shade. There are perfectly ordinary reasons a larger set might carry a higher unit price — a different case, a different pigment mix, different packaging — and none of them is visible from the grid. The only claim here is the arithmetic one, and it recurs: on this shelf, reaching for the bigger box is not reliably the cheaper move. 4.4 stars from 134 ratings.

Rs. 50 for 13 shades — Rs. 3.85 each. Thirteen is the oddest count on the shelf, and it is a small illustration of why this page exists: beside a Rs. 43 box of 12 and a Rs. 58 box of 14, a Rs. 50 box of 13 cannot be ranked by eye at all. Divided out, it sits mid-band — dearer per shade than the Rs. 43 twelve (Rs. 3.58) and cheaper than the Rs. 58 fourteen (Rs. 4.14). 4.3 stars from 57 ratings, another thin sample.

This is the clearest single case of the inverted bulk discount. Doms' 50-shade oil pastel set is Rs. 193 — Rs. 3.86 a shade. Its own 28-shade tin at pick 1 is Rs. 85 — Rs. 3.04 a shade. The bigger box costs 27% more per colour. Both carry four-figure rating pools (1,351 here, 4,291 there) so neither is short of evidence. They are different media — oil pastels against erasable plastic crayons — which is a real difference and a fair part of the explanation. The shopper-facing point stands regardless: on this shelf the number of colours and the price per colour move independently.

Rs. 58 for 14 shades — Rs. 4.14 each. Doms again, and now the pattern runs in the expected direction: this 14-shade tin is dearer per shade than the brand's 28-shade tin at Rs. 3.04. Which means Doms' three listings on this page run Rs. 3.04 (28 shades), Rs. 3.86 (50) and Rs. 4.14 (14) — the mid-size box is the cheapest per shade and the biggest is not. There is no simple rule here, which is the finding. 4.5 stars from 759 ratings, the joint-highest average in the school band.

Rs. 60 for 14 jumbo shades — Rs. 4.29 each. Jumbo crayons are thicker barrels intended for small hands, so there is more wax per stick than in a standard crayon and a per-shade price does not capture that at all. We flag it rather than adjust for it — the tiles publish no weight, so there is no honest way to price these by material, and a per-shade figure is the finest comparison this grid supports. On the shade count alone it is mid-table. 4.1 stars from 43 ratings, a thin sample.

Rs. 220 for 50 shades — Rs. 4.40 each. Against the same brand's 12-crayon box at pick 3, which is Rs. 3.33 a shade, this is 32% dearer per colour — the widest within-brand gap on the page. It is also the most expensive shade in the school band apart from pick 17. Extra-thick 10.5mm barrels, says the listing, which again means more material per stick than a standard pastel and is not something a per-shade figure can account for. 4.3 stars from 70 ratings.

Rs. 147 for 24 triangular wax crayons — Rs. 6.12 a shade, the most expensive colour in the school band and twice the price per shade of pick 1. Triangular barrels are sold on grip and on not rolling off a desk, which are real differences and are the listing's own claims rather than ours. This card also marks the edge of the cliff. The next listing on this shelf, sorted by price per shade, is Rs. 38.71 — a 6.3x step with nothing in between it and this. 4.2 stars from 181 ratings.

Rs. 929 for 24 colours — Rs. 38.71 a shade. The listing immediately above it on this page is Rs. 6.12 a shade. There is no listing anywhere in the 61 we read that falls between those two figures. The shelf is two shelves wearing one name: artists' soft oil pastels carry far higher pigment loads and softer binders than school pastels, and professional art materials are priced on pigment rather than on colour count — so the gap is explicable and nothing here suggests it is not. The point is narrower and entirely practical: searching 'oil pastels' on Amazon returns both populations in one grid, and the grid prints only the box price. 4.4 stars from 71 ratings.

Rs. 1,489 for 36 colours — Rs. 41.36 a shade. Between this, pick 18 (Rs. 38.71) and pick 20 (Rs. 42.69) the artist range moves by about four rupees a shade across pack sizes of 24, 36 and 48. The artist end is priced almost purely by the stick, which is what you would expect if the cost is in the pigment rather than in the box — and it is a cleaner, more consistent pricing logic than the school band manages. 4.6 stars from 685 ratings, the joint-highest average on the page.

Rs. 2,049 is the most expensive box in this read by a wide margin — and at Rs. 42.69 a shade it is not the most expensive shade. Pick 21, a Rs. 521 box, is. Sort this shelf by price and the Rs. 2,049 box looks like the extravagance; divide by the shade count and it is the second-best value in its own band. That inversion between sticker price and unit price is the whole argument for reading a shelf this way. Very well evidenced at 4.6 stars from 5,241 ratings, the second-largest sample seated.

Rs. 521 for 12 colours — Rs. 43.42 a shade, the most expensive colour in this read of 61 listings. It costs four times less at the till than pick 20 and slightly more per shade. Against pick 1 it is 14.3 times the price per shade, which is the full span of this shelf in one comparison: Rs. 3.04 against Rs. 43.42, both sold under words a shopper would type into the same search box. A twelve-colour artists' set is a reasonable thing to buy — it is the standard way to try a medium before committing — and nothing here says it is overpriced. It says only that the grid cannot tell you any of this. 4.5 stars from 184 ratings.
