Buying miles/points is rarely profitable unless it's on an offer. Sometimes even on offers, it's losing bet. That's how they make money.

yeah, but conversion rate should ideal be same right.
Imagine paying 100 inr for 1usd and then 1usd only converting to 50 inr

Used it for converting my Regalia RP to IM, as Regalia was giving only 0.5rs per RP and IM was offering 0.25rs, plus helped me reach an upgrade to next tier which gave a complimentary yearly Amazon Prime membership. Also, you can redeem IM to get 5% discount on Amazon GV

When you buy miles, the rate is almost constant (assuming no offers), but the redemption rate of the miles totally depends on how it is used.
Couple of members have shared the experience in this post where they were able to get more value from the mile.
 
What are some Other good Redirecting websites to earn extra rewards like Intermiles since i suppose recently Flipkart is out of Intermiles and on Amazon they are restricting the categories.

Airmiles really worth it?

Hello, I am exploring miles game now as I am new to this. The reasons are, I have some plans to go for international trips. I always take Economy ticket so no business class/first class air ticket. I just want to get the best out of each CC point so that it saves the cost as much as possible...

Bonus is provided by Intermiles and not by HDFC.. Also check the Intermiles T&C before converting, as 2X is valid for certain conditions only.
Vistara seems like a better option as suggested above
