The Ojas ecosystem
A temple utsavam, an annadanam, a Ganesh or Durga pandal, a society celebration — most of them run on a WhatsApp group, an Excel sheet and cash, and the trouble always starts with the money. Collect contributions on a ledger with a public raised-versus-goal thermometer, scale an eco-kit to your guest count, start from a template, take RSVPs, run the day on QR check-in, and clone the whole thing next year.
Every utsavam, jayanti and vrata with the tithi and māsa that determine it — computed, not copied from last year's calendar.
We start where the coordination is hardest and the money is real — the committee and community festival — and grow with you from there.
Idol to immersion, marquee to procurement — coordinate the whole committee in one workspace.
Cultural secretaries and treasurers run society festivals with per-flat donations and clean books.
Bengali, Tamil and Malayalee cultural associations — annual programmes, members and funds.
Run every client festival on one branded SaaS, with per-event roles when you co-manage a committee.
A home Diwali, a housewarming, a milestone — curate an eco-kit, invite, and host without the spreadsheets.
A maker Ojas has reviewed can be listed straight into the kits committees shop from — no separate storefront to build.
India's festivals move real money — committee budgets from ₹1,00,000 to ₹70,00,000 — with no place to keep it all. Ojas Events is that place.
Seven jobs, one platform — curate, create, buy, invite, fund, run and measure. No plugins, no duct tape.
Curate
Pick a festival, enter the headcount, and the material calculator scales every item — plates, lamps, décor — with a safety buffer, then shows your sustainability score before you commit.
Browse eco-kitsCreate
A three-step wizard deep-clones a festival template so this year starts from something rather than a blank page. Three ship ready-made — a Ganesh Chaturthi mandal, a Durga Puja samiti and a society cultural evening — and any occasion you have already run can be duplicated the same way, ticket types and all.
Buy
Shop curated eco goods from makers carrying the Ojas Verified mark — reviewed by a person here, not certified by a third party — each with the maker's own CO₂-saved figure, filtered to what 'arrives before your event'. One cart, one checkout.
Open the storefrontInvite & RSVP
Share to WhatsApp in a tap. Guests RSVP with party size and travel mode — no login, no seat — and your live dashboard updates catering and kit quantities as replies arrive.
Fund — Donations
A contribution drive with a per-flat link anyone can open without an account, a live transparency thermometer, automatic receipts once your treasurer confirms the money arrived, and expense recording — so raised, spent and balance sit on one ledger anyone on the committee can open. It records and publishes the collection; it does not take the payment, and it is a running account on screen rather than a generated statement document.
Run together
Role-scoped access for Secretary, Treasurer, Procurement, Invites and Logistics; lead-time checklists anchored to your event date; potluck sign-up sheets; and one-tap QR check-in at the gate.
Measure & publish
A shareable Green Charter and a sustainability scorecard built from how your guests said they were travelling and the pledges you made. The travel modes are real; the CO₂ and plastic figures are estimates from a fixed per-mode table, not measurements — so read it as a comparison between two ways of running the same festival, not as a carbon audit.
Opaque cash collection is the committee’s oldest headache. Ojas Events turns it into a ledger that contributors trust and auditors accept — without anyone learning accounting.

Going green shouldn’t be a research project. Ojas Events makes the reviewed, lower-impact choice the easy one — and is straight about what it can and cannot measure.
Every committee shopping an eco-kit is buying from someone. For makers of organic, eco-friendly and handmade goods, that is the point of sale — reachable without owning a shopfront or a marketing team. Ojas Events is early, so this is an audience being built rather than one you'd be inheriting.
When a committee scales a guest-count eco-kit, verified maker products are what fill it — your goods sold the moment a host plans the celebration.
An Ojas Verified badge on the maker, a CO₂-saved figure the maker states, and an 'arrives before your event' filter turn a considered purchase into an easy yes.
Sales run through one basket and one money path, and your share is computed and posted to a balanced ledger the moment the payment clears — no pool account, no reconstruction later. The organiser reads that ledger line by line on their own commission screen, so what you are owed is a figure they can point at rather than one either of you reconstructs. A maker-facing view of your own isn't built yet.
List into the shared storefront and the eco-kits instead of building your own — asset-light, with no shopfront to run and no ad budget to spend. It is early, so the audience is being built, not inherited.
Honest scope — Maker onboarding is curated and consignment-based today; instant self-serve seller signup is on the roadmap.
Tickets, eco-kits and donations all run on one money path — the same catalogue, baskets, orders and payments that power storefronts. So the platform grows well past the box office.
UPI, cards and netbanking through Razorpay and Cashfree. Every order confirms only after a signature-verified webhook — real money, not screenshots.
Free passes, paid seats and tiered pricing share one inventory model that locks the seat at checkout and frees it if the timer runs out.
Every paid seat mints a QR ticket; per-list door scanning checks guests in with one tap, re-entry included, synced across your crew.
When a sold-out event frees up a seat, your team offers it to whoever you pick and they check out like anyone else. Two honest gaps: there is no join-the-waitlist button on the public event page yet — your team adds people — and the offer email needs setting up before it will send.
Percentage or flat discounts, a code that reveals a hidden tier, validity windows and usage caps on every code.
Sales figures while the event is on; the orders, product and promo reports after — read on screen and downloaded as CSV, with any metric you chart on a dashboard out as XLSX or PDF. A row-by-row export of every attendee and every form answer isn't built yet.
The same toolkit flexes from a home Diwali to a 200-flat society Ganesh celebration to a city-scale cultural programme.
Multi-stakeholder coordination for a ten-day festival, with money everyone can see.
A society festival that doesn't lose its books when the volunteers rotate.
Annual cultural programmes with ticketing, members and a shareable recap.
A home Diwali, a baby shower, a housewarming — curated and calm.
The three things organisers care about most — handled properly, not as an afterthought.
Your logo and colours on every page, ticket and receipt — across four built-in Indian-festival themes with full light and dark modes.
Your figures — attendees, check-ins, contributions, RSVPs — are on screen for every event, a dashboard you build downloads as XLSX or PDF, and the operational reports download as CSV. A row-by-row export of every order and attendee isn't built yet; ask and we'll pull it for you.
Everything the dashboard does, a documented REST API does too — an OpenAPI schema, a typed client, and HMAC-signed webhooks with delivery logs.
Ojas Events is a standalone venture, incubated and operated inside Ojas. The festival and temple-occasion side is where it is built deepest — the contribution ledger, the who-brings-what sheet and the guest-count eco-kit exist because of those occasions, not as generic features. It is early, and you would be among the first to run one on it.
Getting your festival running costs nothing. Tell us what your committee is trying to do this year and we will tell you honestly whether we can help — taxes and any ticket fees are itemised on every order, and there is nothing to lock you in.
Talk to usThat is the whole point of it. You open a collection with suggested amounts or an open one, and share a link per flat or per family. Each contribution is recorded against the collection the moment it is offered, with the contributor's name on it — but it sits pending until your treasurer confirms the money actually arrived, and confirming is what fires the receipt. The money itself still reaches you by UPI, cash or bank transfer, outside Ojas. Your treasurer records what was spent against the same collection, so raised, spent and balance are on one ledger anyone with access can open at any point — during the festival, not only at the end. It is a live account on screen; we do not generate a signed statement document for you yet. Donations are kept separate from ticket sales, so a donation never quietly becomes a seat.
Anyone who runs an Indian celebration — a Ganesh or Durga Puja committee, a housing-society or RWA cultural committee, a regional or cultural association, a professional planner, or a family hosting at home. You run your festival yourself, start to finish.
The whole committee. Invite the others and give each of them only what their job needs — secretary, treasurer, buying, invitations, logistics, co-host — and you can grant it for one festival only. The money side is the treasurer's, so not everyone can open the collection. Everyone works off the same checklist with the same dates, which is usually the argument you were having anyway.
Yes — UPI, cards and netbanking, which is how people actually pay. Tax and any fee is shown on every order rather than buried, and if you need to refund someone in full or in part you do it from the order itself.
Yes, in one go. Free replies, paid tickets, eco-kits and extras all go into one basket and one payment, so a single order can hold a pass, a workshop place and a clay-idol kit — and everyone gets their ticket by email with a code to scan at the door.
Kits are put together from makers Ojas has reviewed and marked verified — a person checking, not a certification body. Tell it how many guests you expect and it works out how much you need, so you do not over-order. Invitations can carry a green pledge, and afterwards you get a shareable card summarising the choices you made. Be straight about what that card is, though: the travel modes on it are what your guests told you, but the CO₂ and plastic figures are estimates from a fixed table of averages — nothing was measured at your festival.
Create your account, start from a festival template, and invite your committee — donations, RSVPs, eco-kits and check-in are ready when you are.
