Return gifts are more than just tokens, they’re reflections of your values. If you’re someone who believes in conscious living, wellness, and empowering others through thoughtful gestures, this curated list of sustainable return gifts is for you. Each item is budget-friendly (MRP under ₹200), promotes good health or skincare, and is genuinely useful in daily life.
