Miles Ahead
Gurugram
A day in Gurugram with India's most obsessed points practitioners.
THE SESSION
What happens in the room.
Six hours. Thirty people. Three acts.
The Wallet Audit
Bring your current cards. We walk through what each one earns, what it does not, and what you should be holding instead. You leave knowing which card belongs where in your stack, and which ones to close before the next fee hits.
The Redemption Lab
Flights, hotels, transfer bonuses. Live bookings on screen. The sweet spots that actually exist in India. Nothing generic, nothing recycled from a blog.
The Unfiltered Hour
Open questions. Nothing off limits. Share your actual spend, your actual goal trip, your actual constraints. You get our unfiltered take on exactly what to do next. This is the hour most people say made the whole session worth it.
THE HOSTS
The practitioners in the room.
Not bloggers. Not influencers. Two people who have actually booked the cabins they teach.

Aadil Bandukwala

Every redemption discussed is one they have personally booked. No case studies from the internet.
THE ROOM
A room we are not naming.
Saturday, 31 October 2026 · 9.30 AM to 3.30 PM
The address is not on this page. That is deliberate. Thirty people, one private room in Gurugram, and a door that does not announce itself. We share it with confirmed guests a few days before the session.
I
An address you will receive.
Private, central, quietly done. Shared with confirmed guests, not with the internet.
II
A room that does not double as a coworking space.
Private. Quiet. Air-conditioned properly. The kind of room where a Centurion cardholder would feel at home and a spreadsheet would stay open on the projector.
III
A proper North Indian lunch.
Hot chai and kachori to start, a long lunch mid-way, masala chai to close.
Saturday. The end of October in Gurugram. Outside, the first real edge of winter in the air. Inside, it will be twenty-two degrees and impossibly calm.
Full arrival details go out to confirmed guests a few days before the session.
THE ALUMNI
What past attendees actually booked.
Three alumni from the last Miles Ahead, in their own words.
Raffles Udaipur on Credit Card Points
“
Miles Ahead was not about which card to use where. It was about mindset. How to think about points, how to cut through the noise. I went in with zero redemptions. Six months later, I took my wife to Japan entirely on points, flights and hotels. Four more redemptions since then.

“
Miles Ahead taught me how to get to Accor Platinum, and on my first trip using points, I got complimentary upgrades and paid about one-third of the actual cost. Also learned about seats.aero, which honestly changed how I plan travel.

Etihad Business Class on Credit Card Points
“
Since attending Miles Ahead, Delhi in August 2025, I have flown Business Class round-trip to Vietnam on Singapore Airlines, Europe on Etihad for our anniversary, and booked Qatar Business Class to Masai Mara and Spain. Plus five nights at the JW Masai Mara. Before this, international Business Class was a dream. Now it is a spreadsheet. Full credit to Aadil & Dhimant!

AFTER THE ROOM
One hour, entirely yours.
A private consultation with Aadil or Dhimant. We open your actual statements, go through every card and every balance you are sitting on, and you leave with a written plan for the next twelve months.
We normally run these as a one hour video call. On 31 October we are already in Gurugram, so six of them happen in person instead, one after another, until we leave for the airport.
₹20,000 + 18% GST · ₹23,600 all-in. The same price as the video call. Added to your seat, paid once.
This is our Insider consultation, in person for one afternoon only.

DhimantQUESTIONS
Before you reserve.
Everything past attendees asked before saying yes.
Early bird pricing holds until seat 20. After that, standard pricing applies. Early bird is ₹34,810 including GST (₹29,500 + 18% GST). Standard is ₹44,250 including GST (₹37,500 + 18% GST). Registrations close when the room is full.
We share the exact address with confirmed guests only, a few days before the session. A room of thirty works better when it is not a public location.
Yes. A significant chunk of past attendees had zero points and miles experience when they walked in. We calibrate the wallet audit to whatever cards you already hold, and the redemption walkthroughs start from first principles. If you can hold a credit card, you can follow along.
The podcast and YouTube are a free public library. This is a private room where you ask your own questions, bring your own cards, and get answers tailored to your situation. We also share things in the room we cannot share on YouTube for reasons you will understand when you are there.
Past rooms have included founders, VCs, senior tech operators, doctors, and a few very smart finance nerds. You will not be the only one who feels slightly out of place. Most people do. Most people leave having made three new friends.
Your current credit cards, and a list of trips you are trying to plan in the next eighteen months. Everything else we handle.
No. The value of the room is the room. Recording it would change how freely everyone, including us, talks.
This is our first Gurugram edition. We typically do a city once a year, so the next Gurugram room is unlikely before 2027.
All payments are final. No refunds under any circumstances. If you cannot make it, you cannot transfer your seat to someone else either. This is intentional. It keeps the room small and the commitment real.
You get an instant confirmation email with your invoice. A few days before 31 October, confirmed guests receive the full arrival details, including the address. On the day, you show up. We take it from there.
