Thanks oliver2002 and PiperAtGatesofDawn.
I was planning to make my purchases from the Delhi duty free, which I assume is after transit security. Duty free will ask for my boarding pass, I plan to show the boarding pass from YYZ-Delhi, this one , as per Air India website has a "T" printed on it, which means transit passenger. Domestic boarding passes should have "D"
I have sent an email to the customer service at Delhi duty free, waiting for a reply.
Buying after arrival in COK, since I arrived from Delhi, I am not sure if they will accept my YYZ-DEL transit boarding pass.
I usually fly EK J to COK. Thought of trying out AI this time.
