02 · Via intermediaries — aggregated ratio
2 chains · every leg's toll multiplied in
Card points hopping through 1–4 partner programs into Air India Maharaja Points, every leg multiplied into one end-to-end ratio. A chain is that whole path; each transfer inside it is a leg, and each one costs days and usually points. Only chains that unlock this program or beat the direct route render — the value-traps are suppressed.

03 · Already holding hotel or partner points?
5 program hops · no card involved
Balance-origin hops — a transfer between two loyalty programs rather than out of a card, so it is a stash you already hold and no card is involved. Single leg, so the ratio is the aggregate. Most are rescue valves, not plans: check the ₹/mile before moving anything.

Miles/pt = Air India Maharaja Points miles per 1 point of the source; aggregated ratios multiply every leg. ₹/mile prices the redemption at house values. Chain rows print their own mins and caps — a capped valve moves slowly no matter how good the ratio. Per-card exceptions show their own aggregated ratio on the row. † ranked at the BEST-CASE block rate — the volume bonus on a leg of this chain (Bonvoy 5,000 miles per 60,000 points, Hyatt 5,000 per 50,000) pays only at whole blocks, so a transfer that doesn't fill one lands fewer miles than this row implies. Cards saved in your wallet are highlighted automatically.

What's the best ratio into Air India Maharaja Points?
1:5 from Axis EDGE Miles, on Axis Bank PRIMUS (ranked #45). One point becomes 5.00 Air India Maharaja Points — ₹4.00 of value at our house mark. Nothing else on this page converts harder; the direct table above ranks the rest of the field, per-card exceptions already applied.
Do Air India Maharaja Points expire?
Yes — 24 months; any paid Air India or Air India Express flight extends the whole balance another 24 months (award tickets don't count). That clock runs on the balance sitting in Air India Maharaja Points, not on the card points you started with — which is the argument for transferring against a booking rather than parking a stash here.
What's the minimum transfer into Air India Maharaja Points?
Axis EDGE Miles: 500 EDGE Miles · IndusInd Reward Points: 500 IndusInd Reward Points (redeemed in multiples of 100) · Axis EDGE Reward Points: 300 EDGE REWARD Points. Each is a floor on the points leaving, per transaction — the balance you need sitting in the bank's account before the button works, not the miles that land.
