Forty-eight stapler listings read on 30 September, with the model numbers pulled out of the titles. One brand holds 29 of them, and lists itself twice.
Staplers are sold by model number, which makes this shelf unusually checkable: pull HP-45 or HD-10D out of the printed titles and you can see exactly how often one machine is listed. Three separate tiles sell a stapler printed HP-45, at Rs. 245, Rs. 268 and Rs. 298. Only the dearest states a reason - it bundles four packets of pins. The cheapest also happens to carry the most ratings, 2,044 of them, which is luck rather than a rule: on the HP-10, the cheaper of two tiles has thirteen.
Every price below was pulled from Amazon on September 30, 2026 and checked against the MRP on the listing. Stack them with the live codes on our Amazon coupons page, which the deals desk re-verifies daily.
Three listings sell a stapler printed HP-45, at Rs. 245, Rs. 268 and Rs. 298. Two sell an HP-10, at Rs. 234 and Rs. 260. The cheapest HP-45 has the most ratings; the cheapest HP-10 has thirteen.

Why it earned its spot The consumable, and the clearest broken MRP.

The dearest stapler on the shelf, and almost nobody has rated it.
Why it earned its spot The top of the shelf, and the thinnest evidence on it.
First: search the model number, not the category. Once you know you want an HP-45, typing that into the search box shows you all three tiles at once - Rs. 245, Rs. 268 and Rs. 298 - and the Rs. 53 spread becomes obvious. Browsing 'stapler' instead shows them pages apart. Second: check what is in the box before assuming the dearer tile is a rip-off. The Rs. 298 HP-45 states four packets of pins, and a box of Kangaro pins is Rs. 98 on this same shelf, so that listing is arguably the best value of the three. The Rs. 268 one bundles nothing, which is the tile to avoid. Third: read the rating count on every tile of the model you want, because they differ wildly and not in any consistent direction. The cheapest HP-45 carries 2,044 ratings and the dearest 936; but the cheapest HP-10 carries 13 and the dearer one 708. There is no rule here except to look. Fourth: ignore the badge, which on this shelf is close to meaningless. Nine listings state an MRP below their own selling price and show 0% off, ten state no MRP at all, and the largest badge in the read - 98% - sits on a Rs. 279 item claiming a Rs. 14,020 list price. That is 19 of 48 tiles from which no useful discount can be computed, and a discount sort puts the worst of them first.

Each selling price, stated MRP, discount badge, star average and rating count on this page was read on 30 September 2026 from amazon.in's own search results for 'stapler', logged out, in India, with nothing purchased. 48 listings were returned and 20 are seated. Nothing was bought, loaded or used.
HP-45, HP-10, HD-10D and HS-10A are model numbers printed in the listings' own titles, and tiles sharing one are described as the same model. We have handled none of them and do not assert that two tiles are the identical item; where one bundles pins and another does not, that is stated on the card.
Two listings here are called 'No.10 All Metal Stapler' and sell at Rs. 50 and Rs. 290. No. 10 describes the staple the machine takes rather than a specific model, so those two are NOT presented as one product at two prices - unlike the HP-45 and HD-10D groups, where the model number identifies the machine. We also opened the Rs. 290 listing's own product page, where the full title ends 'Pack of 4': the search result truncates titles at 90 characters and that qualifier is cut off, so the tile is Rs. 72.50 a stapler. No other matched group on this page carries a pack qualifier.
Nine listings state an MRP below their own selling price and ten state none at all; one states Rs. 14,020 against a Rs. 279 price. Where we describe an MRP as wrong we mean specifically that it is lower than the price the tile is asking, or a round multiple of it. These are observations about a data field, not allegations against any seller.
Sheet capacities, 'all metal', 'sturdy', 'heavy duty', staple sizes and pin counts are the listings' own printed text, reproduced as printed. We did not buy, load, fire or jam any stapler on this page, and nothing here says any of them binds what it claims or lasts.
Because it is listed several times over, and the tiles do not always say what differs. In this 30 September 2026 read, three separate listings sold a stapler printed HP-45, at Rs. 245, Rs. 268 and Rs. 298, and two sold an HP-10 at Rs. 234 and Rs. 260. The Rs. 298 HP-45 states four packets of staple pins in the box, which is a real difference; the Rs. 268 one states no bundle and is still Rs. 23 dearer than the cheapest. Multiple listings of one product are ordinary on marketplaces and no wrongdoing is implied - but the practical effect is that opening the first tile you see can cost you Rs. 53.
We did not use any of these, so this is about what the tiles publish rather than about the machines. On evidence, the HP-45 at Rs. 245 carries 2,044 ratings at 4.3, the largest count of any desk stapler here, and it is also the cheapest of its three tiles. Under Rs. 150, the HS-G10 at Rs. 100 with 552 ratings is the best-evidenced cheap option. For heavy duty work, the DS-23 S24 FL at Rs. 1,890 has 557 ratings at 4.4 against five ratings on the Rs. 2,180 listing above it. Sheet capacities and 'all metal' claims here are the listings' own printed text and we have not tested any of them.
Because the stated MRP on those tiles is lower than the price being asked, so no discount can be computed. Nine of the 48 listings in this read do this - a Rs. 268 HP-45 states an MRP of Rs. 53, a Rs. 98 box of staple pins states Rs. 19, a Rs. 600 long-throat stapler states Rs. 120. Several are exactly one fifth or one third of the selling price, which suggests a per-unit figure sitting in a pack-level field rather than random typing errors. Ten more listings state no MRP at all. No wrongdoing by Amazon or any seller is alleged; MRP data errors are common across Indian marketplaces.
In this read, a Kangaro No. 10 all-metal stapler at Rs. 50, against a stated MRP of Rs. 100, with 23 ratings at 4.0. One caution worth stating: a second listing also called a 'No.10 All Metal Stapler' showed Rs. 290 in the same read - but its full product page title ends 'Pack of 4', so it is Rs. 72.50 a stapler, and the search result truncates that qualifier off the end. No. 10 also describes the staple pin the machine takes rather than a model, so those two tiles are not one product at two prices. If you want a cheap stapler with evidence behind it, the HS-G10 at Rs. 100 carried 552 ratings, which is 24 times the feedback for twice the money.
Because the word covers both, and on this shelf the carpentry tools are among the most popular listings. The single most-rated item in the entire read was an Amazon Basics 3-in-1 heavy duty staple gun at Rs. 759 with 3,517 ratings, followed by an INGCO nail gun at Rs. 632 with 674. A staple gun drives staples into wood, upholstery and furniture - it will not staple paper, and a desk stapler will not do carpentry. If you are buying for an office, filter these out before comparing prices, because they sit in a Rs. 580 to Rs. 870 band that will distort any view of what a stapler costs.
