Rakhi is around the corner, and another box of sweets is not going to cut it this year. A gift your brother actually reaches for, a scent he wears out, a watch he checks every morning, a pair he laces up, that is the kind of thing that earns you the good end of the sibling bargain.
Every pick below sits under Rs 5,000, and we have grouped them loosely so you can shop by person: mostly for him, a couple that work for a sister or a friend too. We chose across perfumes, watches, accessories and sneakers so there is something for the guy who loves fragrance and the guy who lives in his sneakers. Here are our favourites for 2026.
