Will I receive a higher baggage allowance on all sectors when I request for an upgrade?
When traveling on multiple flights, e.g. Singapore-Dubai-Bombay any upgrade redeemed for the origin flight (Singapore-Dubai) will entitle the passenger to a higher baggage allowance for that flight only. However, the higher baggage allowance will not be applicable for the onward flight (Dubai-Bombay). Any difference in the allowance must be charged (although the passenger may intend to upgrade himself on the onward flight, at Dubai).

This has been my exact experience.

Theoretically in the above example you will only have to pay excess at DXB-BOM rates if you have 40kg.
