Where to buy it in Mumbai

Every item on the list, resolved to a shop that has it in stock.

A four-hop traversal. The trailing variable-length step is what lets “Chennai” match a florist registered in T. Nagar without you having to know that.Occasion → NEEDS → Product → AVAILABLE_AT → Florist → LOCATED_IN → Location → PART_OF*0..3

Fewest stops

Which single shop covers the most of this list — because visiting four shops on a festival morning is not realistic.

Traverse out to every vendor, then aggregate back per vendor while remembering which items were never covered. In SQL this needs a four-table join, a GROUP BY, and a correlated NOT EXISTS per checklist item.aggregate back over the traversal

Substitutes chain. Jasmine is out of season, tuberose stands in for jasmine, chrysanthemum stands in for tuberose — the walk follows the chain and scores each extra hop lower on its own.Product → SUBSTITUTE_FOR*1..3 → Product

Camphor — No vendor near you has Camphor in stock, and there is no accepted substitute for it. It is worth widening your search area.

There is no accepted substitute for this one. It is worth widening your search area rather than replacing it.

The full checklist

Grouped by category, essentials first. Quantities and notes come from the relationship between this occasion and each item.

The quantity, the unit, the importance and the note all live on the NEEDS relationship — not on the flower and not on the occasion. That is the clearest single argument for modelling this as a graph.Occasion → NEEDS → Product → BELONGS_TO → Category
