In most cases you can check in for all flights at your originating point; call Aeroflot in India to confirm this.

I would certainly not recommend that tight connection. Unless something has dramatically changed in last 2 years, Aeroflot is always quite an unpredictable airline in terms of customer-friendliness (I had both good and very bad experience) and Sheremetyevo is a very hectic airport especially in summer. What you're trying to do is certainly possible but you're taking very large chances.

Alright.Thank you for your response.
Other combinations have minimum 9 hour transit.
I called up Aeroflot(delhi) the lady told me that check in for both flight is not possible(strange for me)then i mailed Aeroflot Russia and they told me that its possible.
Anyways i think i should go for 9 hour transit. At least i will be stress free.
Have anyone tried for 50 mins connection?

Coach or business?
What's the worst case scenario? If you miss it, is the next flight 9 hours later but same day?
Since both flights are operated by SU and I assume on the same PNR they will help but if you have to wait for another flight next day this may turn into smth more storyworthy. I have no clue how SU handles visas in irrops.
IMO go for it!

Yes next flight is 9 hour later but the same day.
Now i got 2 options either run and in case, if i miss then probably they will adjust me in the evening flight.
or
I can book evening flight with a 9 hour gap.
I just wanted to know if anyone ever experienced 50 mins transit!
Thank you

I certainly agree with this advice. 9 hours should be enough time to get Aeroflot to rebook you if that becmes necessary.
