Education MCC code will give you points for Atlas and Magnus Burgundy .
so I expect it will be allowed for the target milestone also
What platforms are considered to be ‘education’ spends?

For that you need to disable transactions on the app for your credit card and then try to use it
It will obviously fail and then phone customer care to find out the MCC code, whether it is education or not
Finally they have updated traveledge portal with new rules.
Fortunately or Unfortunately Magnus Burgundy/Edge points status is same as before. U can still transfer edge points in 5:4, but not until u make MB zero.

So where will you guys be shifting to ?
I still kept this card after last devaluation only for the unlimited domestic lounge access, Meet & Greet and BookMyshow BOGO. Any other card offering the similar services ?

Magnus burgundy is for unlimited International Lounge access + 4 guest visits and 4 meet and greet.
No buy one get one on BookMyShow after 20 April (use Burgundy debit card or IndusInd exclusive debit card)
Domestic Lounge access needs 50000 spend in the previous quarter
No card offers Meet and Greet except Magnus Burgundy, Burgundy Private. BOGO and Unlimited/Limited lounges are available with some ICICI and IndusInd cards.
Sadly there isn't anywhere to shift. There are no worthwhile Indian credit cards anymore.
Zenith + has meet and greet. 1 per quarter

I got the AU Zenith+
5000+GST but you get RP worth 5000 back so basically just pay the GST part
1 meet and greet per qtr
4 BOGO upto 500 per qtr
4 Domestic & 4 intl lounge per qtr
Its definitely not Magnus but All that for 900 rupees isn't a bad deal at all IMO.
Do you get points on renewal fee paying as well?
Might have missed. My Pincode is not serviceable for Au Bank. Thanks for bringing to the notice.
Yes, every year on paying renewal fees. And I checked; Amazon Pay vouchers are available.

For Amazon pay the points are worth 20 price otherwise 25 paisa.
Also 117 fee for every redemption
I haven't redeemed points yet however I can definitely see Amazon Pay Voucher worth 5000 @ 5000 RPs and 1RP=1Re value for other vouchers as well. See screenshots
I didn't know about the redemption fee you mentioned so i checked and you're right, there is a 99+tax fees on every redemption.

You must be having AU Zenith where the points are 1 rupee.
In AU Lit card the points are either 20 Paisa for Amazon pay or 25 Paisa for Amazon shopping voucher.

Yes indeed, we were discussing AU Zenith+ actually
Just noticed that 2L Group A limit for MB this time is not capped individually for each partner like last time. It's shared across all partners. I was somehow hoping that they will follow the same old formula with 2L for each partner. But I guess, that makes my work easier, all that 2L quota will be taken by Accor.
Vistara/Air India Miles or revenue flights through yes/hdfc bank points route is manageable for airlines. I never found value in Krisflyer (Although hdfc is available for that). And Turkish is devalued already. Rest of the options like United, Avios, Thai etc are just not worth it. Haven't transferred anything to them yet. JAL is good option, but will see based on travel plans.
