Yes...if you have lived in India for less than 6 months after you turned 18, then no you don't need to provide PCC else yes.

You can apply for a PCC from Indian Embassy in Canada. Check the Indian Embassy website.

PCC takes time but some times it would have been available and consulate forgets to inform you. I would say start a follow up with after 1 week of application than wait for 4-6 weeks and then do a follow up. Call them every week to find out the status, you dont lost much but chances are you might get it earlier than 4 weeks.
