They said they won't be able to give me the invoice and asked me to get it from MakeMyTrip as I paid to MakeMyTrip and not B.A. But I got a confirmation from BA that 3PC baggage is free for students with valid visa and i20 and there is no need for extra charge. They said they’d charge Rs 5000/- for general passengers.
