Compare that to the absurdly ridiculous 360k miles that AI charges. Or even 110k miles UA charges... TK has a very sweet deal.
if the yq is high then i find it better to just buy a revenue ticket & upgrade using miles....i recently bought a del-cdg-del ticket for my wife for travel later this month & it cost me inr 53k + 64k miles to upgrade to business....this way she also earns back some miles for the revenue booking & it helps with her tier status....

if yq on tk is inr 30k then that's acceptable....inr 50k would be a bit on the higher side....
