so i have two continuous semester gaps between my studies

may to september (which was a scheduled break from college and mandatory to take)

september to january (authorized leave due to medical reason ) - In this peroid i left canada and went to india for treatment and then came back for my next semester and finished the course

my main concern is that me taking my scheduled break (4 months- may to september) + authorized leave (4 months-september to january) = 8months in total create any trouble for pgwp ?

On the IRCC website it says :
A student on leave who begins or resumes their studies within 150 days from the date the leave commenced (that is, the date the leave was granted by the institution) is considered to be actively pursuing studies during their leave.

i cannot find any info on IRCC website stating that you are not allowed to take authorized leave right after scheduled break.

kindly help please

Nobody can guarantee IRCC’s response but as already indicated that if you have scheduled leave followed by an approved medical leave that should be ok. I would still include proof of your medical issue like diagnosis, treatment required, proof that you had treatment/surgery, explain why you needed to return to India and couldn’t get treatment in Canada, etc.
