Another very viable option for you would be the new non-stop flight from YYZ offered on Air Canada. The flight would be YYZ-DEL and avoids the early morning connections in Europe as well as the late night departures out of India. Discounted C class fares can be had for about $5000 CAD ($3500US) and you can earn miles on either UA or AC. AC's reward to India will be 75K for Y and 100K for J.
