- Shoot the candle alone on a plain background for image 1; show size and use in the others.
To sell candles on Meesho, list them in the Home & Kitchen / Home Decor / Candles / Candles category and fill that category's bulk upload template exactly as written: pick Type, Material and Color only from the allowed values, put each colour and size on its own row, set Net Quantity for packs, and use a plain photo of the candle alone as image 1. This guide walks through each part of the Candles template.

A jar candle in a glass container could reasonably be Material "Glass" or "Wax"; choose what best describes the product the buyer receives, and use one choice consistently across your catalog.
Packs and variants
- A pack of 6 tea lights is one product with Net Quantity 6.
- Each colour is its own row with its own Style ID.
- Each size of the same design shares a Style ID but has its own SKU ID.
- Give all rows of one collection the same Group ID so they appear as one catalog.
Product name and description
Name the product by what it is: for example "Lavender Scented Soy Wax Jar Candle". Keep weight, size and price out of the name. In the description, say what the buyer gets: scent, burn use, size, pack count and the container. Avoid other portal names and restricted words.
Photos that pass QC
Meesho's rules apply to image 1: the candle alone, no text, logo or props. The size and lifestyle views below are our recommendation, not a Meesho rule.
- Image 1: the candle alone, full product in frame, on a plain light background. No text, logo or props.
- Image 2: a size view, so buyers know how big it is.
- Image 3: a lifestyle view, the candle in a room setting.
- All images as RGB JPEG, sharp and not stretched.
Weights and dimensions
Net Weight is the candle without packaging, in grams. For round candles, enter the diameter as Product Length. Measure, don't guess: wrong sizes lead to returns under both prices.
Prices
Set Meesho Price, a Wrong/Defective Returns Price below it, and an MRP above both. Glass jars can break in transit, and broken items can be returned at either price, so pack well.
