actaully if existing appointment in place. it will take 3 weeks to disappear. call to them, they will give premium lounge appointment
Thanks for your response. It was a premium lounge appointment but my son was unwell that day hence had to skip it. When I tried to cancel it using the reference number then also it was throwing technical error. My wife and son are traveling to India in first week of March so e-visa is the only option left now. But they want to stay for more than 6months hence we want to apply OCI for my son. Can e-visa be extended to stay for more than 6months? If yes then how to get the extension for another 6months? Do you know? Or does any one know?

E-visa will not allow you to do that. Better apply for OCI and once you get it make a short trip outside India and re-enter using OCI. Additionally as it's for a kid, once you get OCI check if FRRO allows you to change the status from e-visa to OCI without leaving India. For adults they are not allowing it.
