Do they use a total-weight or per-piece system? (e.g. Does it make a difference if we have like 15kg in 2 bags or 30kg in 1 bag?)
If I remember correctly, they have 3 difference baggage allowances depending on the ticket you purchase. Their basic ticket has no checked baggage allowance, the flex ticket has 15kg & the business ticket has 25kg.
I don't think you can check in a bag that weighs more than 25kg but they will be ok with you checking in 2 bags provided both combined are under the allowance. So basically in your situation, if you are 2 people with a total of 40kgs & buy the flex option then you will have to pay for an extra 10kgs. They do have an International Connecting Baggage rate which I believe is ₹3K for an extra 15kgs. So you can check in that 45kgs in 2 or 3 bags.
