Dear Team,

It’s that time of the year again… the season when diet plans vanish, relatives appear out of nowhere, and the sound of “Shubh Labh” competes with the sound of firecrackers.

To make sure you all get maximum time for ghar ki safai, mithai overload, and answering endless questions like “Shaadi kab karoge?” 😊, we are giving you an extended holiday break from October 18th to October 26th, 2025.

Yes, you read it right. 9 full days! Here’s what you can (and probably will) do with this bonus time:

• Master the art of sleeping till noon — because alarm clocks also deserve a holiday.
• Binge-watch family dramas, both on OTT and in your living room.
• Break your personal record of eating kaju katlis (no judgment here).
• Pretend to help with Diwali cleaning while actually just shifting things from one corner to another.
• Switch off from emails unless it’s Amazon, Swiggy, or Zomato.
• Pegs, Taash, Mithai and repeat!

So go ahead, stock up on sweets, light up the diyas, and spend time with family, friends, and maybe even that long-lost cousin who suddenly remembers your number once a year.

When you come back, we expect you to be:

• 2 kgs heavier,
• 10x happier,
• And fully recharged for the new adventures ahead.

Till then, spread smiles, burst crackers responsibly, and enjoy every bit of the festive madness. ✨

Wishing you all a very Happy Festive Season!

Best,
Rajat Grover

This is a big step and sets a new standard for how companies can treat their staff. In a time when long work hours and strict office rules are common, this kind of break shows that the company cares about its employees’ happiness and work-life balance. Employees are happy and thankful for this thoughtful gesture. Experts say that companies that care about their staff are more likely to keep good employees, reduce stress, and create a positive work culture. The nine-day Diwali break is more than just a holiday—it sends a message that employee well-being matters. Hopefully, other companies will follow this example.
