A quick review of aa.com before posting would be appreciated as well:

aa.com has lots of detail on this - I recommend you go there for the entire details on Air Sahara or any other AA partner.
Briefly, you earn minimum 250 miles, on any published (on AA.com) fare class (except business, which has a 25% bonus.) Unless you are flying S2 as an AA codeshare, these will always be redeemable miles, not EQM.

Thank You All !
Thank you all for the quick repsonses, looks like I am ineligible as the booking fare class is O which does not show up as an eligible fare class for mileage benefit.

Yes.
[For how much longer earning/redeeming miles on Air Sahara will be possible is another question -- especially given Air Sahara's pending acquisition by Jet Airways. But it will require Air Sahara (or its soon-to-be-parent Jet Airways) to give AA advance notification of voiding of their arrangement, and that won't be effective tomorrow, so you should be fine for the near-term.]

possible to book air sahara ORD-DEL-ORD?
This is pretty much off-topic. I am working on ORD-DEL-ORD for later this year. S2 codeshares on the AA flights on this route. While the AA and S2 prices are nearly identical (meaning I'll buy the AA ticket) I'm curious if it's even possible to book a straight round-trip using the S2 flight numbers, with no onward S2 connection. ITA suggests it is, but no booking site lets me. Perhaps this is a general question about code shares in the first place... please help a somewhat ignorant traveler! I further assume that were I to ticket the S2 codeshare on AA metal, I would only earn redeemable miles, correct?
