I had initally priced the below as 4 separate One - Way tickets. Prices given below. Was thinking, it would be good if she got some decent amount of miles for the flying ahead and then realized might be better to look at a RTW option from Star or Oneworld.
MAA – HAV / Mar 20th / CX – $ 800 INR (One World)
YVR – MEL/ June 10th/ FJ – $ 820 (No alliance)
MEL – LLW/ Aug 30th/ QF, ET – $ 1,085 (One World)
LLW – MAA/ Sep 16th/ ET or AI – $500 (One World/ Star Alliance)
NET TOTAL : $3205

Would need a lot of work to get to an alliance RTW. And 95% sure would price much higher.
Most of those origin- destinations have transits

HAV can be tricky to get to.
FJ is Oneworld connect, so limited ff partner of OW airlines
QF fly YVR-SYD non stop, then SYD-MEL
LLW a unusual destination. (I have been there decades ago) ET & AI are not Oneworld.

QF does fly SYD JNB, South Africa. QR Qatar fly's to many African airports
