Eighty-seven listings read on 17 October. Two rupees separate a 13% badge from a 90% one, and the product in both cases is a geometry box.
On this shelf the discount badge tracks brand recognition, not price. The 25 listings from nine recognised stationery houses in this read of 87 run a median badge of 15% and never pass 40%, at a median price of Rs. 142; the other 61 listings run a median badge of 67% at a median Rs. 260. The cleanest comparison is two geometry boxes two rupees apart: Rs. 122 against a stated Rs. 140 and badged 13%, versus Rs. 124 against a stated Rs. 1,240 - exactly ten times its price - and badged 90%. Held to that one product, five boxes from Rs. 122 to Rs. 377 carry badges of 13%, 35%, 40%, 52% and 71%, so the claim rises with the money rather than against it.

Four habits survive this read. First, read the rupees, not the percentage. The cheapest tile in this read is Rs. 80 and badged 20%; the deepest badge seated, 92%, belongs to a Rs. 151 tile. Sorting by discount does not sort by price here. Second, check the multiple. Divide the stated MRP by the price: the recognised houses sit between 1.02x and 1.67x, while the deep-badge tiles run 3x to 13x, and one excluded tile printed exactly 100x. Third, use the rating count, because every tile here has one. All 87 listings publish a star average and a count, and the thinnest evidence on this page - seven ratings - sits under an 81% badge. Fourth, hold the product still before comparing. A themed multifunction pencil box and a school geometry box are not the same purchase, and most of the 80%-plus badges in this read are on the former. This page read prices; it did not open, sharpen or draw with anything.

Each selling price, stated MRP, discount badge, star average and rating count on this page was read on 17 October 2026 from amazon.in's own search results for 'geometry box', 'sketch pens set' and 'colour pencils 24', logged out, in India, with nothing purchased. 87 distinct listings came back and 24 are seated. Amazon's search is personalised and reordered continuously, so a different reader will not see the same set or the same prices.
A Rs. 170 geometry box in this read states an MRP of Rs. 17,000 - exactly 100.00 times its selling price - and is badged 99%. An exact hundred-times multiple on a Rs. 170 school item is far more likely to be a misplaced decimal on the tile than a price history, so it is excluded from every range, median and multiple quoted on this page and is not seated. It is named here rather than dropped silently. Two further tiles state round multiples (Rs. 124 against Rs. 1,240 and Rs. 93 against Rs. 999); those ARE included and reported as printed, with the multiple named on the card.
The nine houses counted as recognised here - Doms, Apsara, Camlin, Faber-Castell, Classmate, Nataraj, Staedtler, Reynolds and Maped - are the names an Indian stationery aisle stocks, chosen as a group before their badges were tallied rather than picked to fit a finding. They account for 25 of the 87 listings. Note also that the read returned 'Camlin', 'Cam-Lin', 'Camel' and 'Camell' as four distinct seller strings; each is reproduced exactly as printed and this page makes no claim about the relationship between them.
A general 'colour pencils 24' search on this shelf also returns a cosmetic kohl eyeliner pencil, which is not stationery and is not seated. Where a search returns something outside the category, this page names it rather than letting it sit in a price range as though it belonged there.
This is a price read. It makes NO claim about lead or pigment quality, lightfastness, shade accuracy, compass precision, plastic durability, child safety or how long anything lasts, and no claim that any item here is well made or suits any child. 'Premium', 'Non-Toxic', 'High Precision', 'Super Soft', 'Washable' and the shade counts are the listings' own printed words, reproduced as printed and unverified. Apart from the single excluded tile described above, stated MRPs are the sellers' own figures and this page does not assert that any of them is false. We did not buy, open, sharpen or draw with anything.
In this read of 87 listings on 17 October 2026 the cheapest geometry box was Rs. 122, from a recognised house, badged 13% off a stated Rs. 140 and publishing 4.2 stars from 380 ratings. The cheapest listing of any kind in the read was Rs. 80, a pocket geometry box badged 20%. Note what that means: the cheapest boxes on this shelf carry the shallowest discount badges, because their sellers print modest list prices. Prices change continuously, so check the live page.
Because the badge is computed against a stated MRP each seller chooses. In this read, the 25 listings from nine recognised stationery houses ran a median badge of 15% and never passed 40%, while the other 61 ran a median of 67%. The clearest pair is two geometry boxes two rupees apart in price: one states Rs. 140 against its Rs. 122 and advertises 13%; the other states Rs. 1,240 against its Rs. 124 - exactly ten times - and advertises 90%. We do not assert that any stated MRP is false; we report the multiple between the two printed figures and let it speak.
Almost certainly not, and this page excludes it rather than quoting it. One listing in this read sold at Rs. 170 and stated an MRP of Rs. 17,000 - exactly 100.00 times its selling price - producing a 99% badge. An exact hundred-times multiple on a Rs. 170 school item is far more likely to be a misplaced decimal on the tile than a price history, so it is out of every range, median and multiple on this page and is not seated. Two other tiles state round multiples (Rs. 124 against Rs. 1,240, Rs. 93 against Rs. 999) and those are included and reported as printed. It is a good habit to divide before trusting any 95%-plus badge.
Not on this shelf. The seated colour pencil sets are almost all 24-shade packs and they sell at Rs. 102, Rs. 113, Rs. 117, Rs. 120, Rs. 423 and Rs. 649 — the same stated shade count across a 6.4x price range. Shade counts are the listings' own printed figures. This page makes no claim about pigment, lightfastness, blending or how the leads behave, because it read prices rather than drawing with anything, and nothing in the data would support an answer about quality.
Because Amazon's search matches on the word 'pencil', and the shelf is contaminated as a result. One listing returned by the colour pencil query in this read is a cosmetic kohl eyeliner pencil, which is not stationery and is not seated here. It matters because a contaminated result set quietly distorts any price range quoted from the raw results. Where a search returns something outside the category, this page names it rather than letting it sit inside a range as though it belonged.
