Definitely valid.

Thanks Asivad.

One more thing :

I have got FSW invitation and I need to submit JOb Offer letter. I have been working in Canada for the last 2 years.

It seems My company is not interested to provide Job Reference letter. But I do have the letters issued to CIC for extending my work permit ( detailing Full time , Duties , Compensation etc.) dated 20th feb 2015.

Would uploading this letter suffice. Do In need to attach soem explanation letter ?

One more thing I have deputation letters when I was deputed to UK and Germany from the same company ( back in 2007 and 2008). Would attaching those as well help ?

Pls. guide .

If you don't go back and live in India, that PCC is valid indefinitely.

Thanks. You are the best.

Thanks Asivad. That's what I thought. However, after I applied, I came to know that PCC will be valid for 6 months only. Any suggestions on this?

Rules are here:
http://www.cic.gc.ca/english/infORmation/security/police-cert/intro.asp

For the country you currently live in, the police certificate must be issued no more than six months before you apply.
Canada - your country of current residence - no PCC required at the time of application.

For [other] countries where you have lived for six months or more, the police certificate must be issued after the last time you lived in that country
Since you are not currently living in India, if the Indian PCC was issued AFTER you stopped residing in India, it is valid indefinitely (or until you resume living in India).
