I am in a similar tricky situation where I need my wife's BA+MA to be evaluated as Masters due to the CRS score situation. I have already submitted to WES, but their degree equivalency tool shows this as Bachelors (4 years) + Post Graduate Diploma.
With ICES, did you get only MA/MSc degree evaluated as Masters or did you have to send the Bachelors transcripts as well. Also, could you please mention how long did it take for ICES to provide the ECA after receiving the documents?
@EEAspirant could you please share if you got your answer and finalized on any agency who will evaluate your credentials as Masters.
Did you get it evaluated as masters from ICES?

I got the digital ECA from CES today. I have a 3 years Bsc and a 2 years Msc. But the ECA report says 4 years bachelors. Is there anyone with a similar experience who can tell me what can be done regarding this? Is it a good idea to try and get a new ECA from somewhere else? WES or ICAS?

You can get it from other ECA agencies. WES wont give it as Masters for sure. ICAS i don't know. IQAS will give it as Masters but it takes nearly 6 months for their evaluation. So i'm looking for ICES for some proof.

Did you do BSc and MSc as full time regular course or distance? And which university in India?

WES might ending doing the same.
You can still claim points 2 or more Bachelors degree...

Do CES or ICAS considers BA LLB degree (integrated course of 5 years) from IP University, India as a Master's Degree or Professional degree?
How much time does CES and ICAS take generally to evaluate?
WES evaluated it as Bachelors degree (Four Years).

I don't remember exactly. But it doesn't matter as "One-year Masters" is same as "Masters" from point calculation perspective

Was this for the BA (Economics) 3 Years and MA (Economics) 2 years? Can you give me the detail? Did you sent both degrees to IQAS or only MA?
