If you’re a Canadian citizen, there are two options available for e-visa, i.e. 30 days and 1 year e-visa with multiple entries.
thanks
Whats the current timeline for processing? People getting them within a date of payment?
@abbas.pasha @forw.jane Hey buddy! I surrendered my Indian passport and got the surrender certificate. I am now applying for e-visa but confused about this section. What should I enter? Last time I visited India as a Citizen but that's not an option to provide here.
Can you please check and let me know?

Like @amak07 mentioned select No at the top of this section on the visa application since you previously visited as an Indian citizen Carey Indian passport. This for Canadian/Foreign passport holder who have visited India on a visa
Okay, thank you so much for the reply.
Hey Guys. I am about to apply for my E-visa. I have a couple of doubt if anyone can clear. I do not have enough time to surrender my Indian passport and I plan to do it after I return (It will be less than 90 days from getting my Canadian Citizenship). The forms asks me whether I hold another passport. Should I put the information of the India passport in that section?
Also, Originally I never has a last name/surname from India. Now my Canadian passport only has a last name but no given name. The e-visa application has a mandatory Given name field. What should I do?

You should say No. as soon as you take the citizenship oath of another country in your case Canadian, Indian citizenship is relinquished, its a requirement from Govt of India formally surrender your citizenship and cancel your Indian passport
For the name thing my suggestion will be to get an affidavit
e-Visa timeline:
Applied 1 year multiple entry e-visa on 7th March, 2024 at 5:15pm (Toronto Time)
Got Granted email on 8th March 2024 at 8:13am
Documents submitted: PDF copy of passport, 2*2 photograph
It does take some time to get success status for Payment and visa processing is done once payment is successful.

You cannot go with Indian passport and come back with Canadian passport. You will need to surrender your Indian passport and get exit permit before leaving India.
