Can I check in all the way through?

The flight is technically valid and you will be having the visas required. Transit Visa is not needed anyway for passengers having a canadian visa. However, these are the risks.

  • If there is two tickets with two separate PNR, you won't get the second boarding pass from India and below case happens.

From Madrid airport website:

Note that if you do not have a boarding pass for your next flight and/or you have to need to pick up your luggage that is not checked to destination, you must leave the boarding area, pass through immigration controls if any, and make a new check-in to your airline check-in counter. Then you will need to pass through security checkpoints to re-enter the boarding area.

  • Even if you make with a cabin bag, you are more likely to deny boarding from India itself, as airlines tends to err towards caution.
  • If your first flight is delayed by any chance, you won't get any compensation or alternate route for second and you probably have to pay from your pocket.

So, its risky. Check whether its a single ticket from India to Brazil. If not, get travel agent to rebook it. Check with Air India anyway, before making any changes.
