Add Gel Pen

We all grew up using Apsara pencils to ink pens, Reynolds ball pens, then Ocean gel, and finally the dream pen of every middle class child “Add gel” pen. Back in those days we used to convince our parents to buy us the most expensive Add gel pen that costs us Rs 20 per pen that felt like moving a mountain for us because we could get Ocean gel pens for Rs 3 only in those days.

But times have changed a lot now and inflation has hit us really bad. We realized this fact when someone tweeted that our favorite Add gel pen now costs a whopping amount of Rs 40. And to make sure if this news is right or wrong, we cross-checked the news and it’s nothing close to the price at which we used to buy it back in those days.
