Yes, you can apply from India as well.
Only a Canadian citizen or permanent resident or third party companies in Canada can order gcms. I tried directly on the ATIP site and it asked me for canadian address. somebody referred me to caipsgcms.com and I got mine from there.

I was thinking the same. I am confused whether I should hire a consultant or not. I dont want to rush so taking time to make a decision. May be I will target to submit in by Mid March.

Details about the refusal -

--------------------------------------------------

Refusal letter states -

• I am not satisfied that you will leave Canada at the end of your stay, as stipulated in subsection 216(1) of the IRPR, based on the purpose of your visit.
• Your proposed studies are not reasonable in light of one or more of: your qualifications, previous studies, missing marksheets, academic record, level of establishment/available financial resources, language abilities, or your future prospects and plans.


Ordered GCMS Notes, below is the summary -

• Language scores not provided - I am unable to determine the candidates English language abilities
• Previous education/employment experience is inconsistent with current educational goals; I am not satisfied that the motivation to persue this particular program in Canada, at this point in time, is reasonable, see LOA/transcripts

I am therefore not satisfied that the applicant would be a bona fide student in Canada who will leave Canada by the end of the period authorized for their stay.

I understand that one of the errors on my part was that I missed attaching my IELTS scores but my SOP was pretty detailed (1500 words+) stating my reasons to persue higher education and why I chose Canada. My work experience is also related to my course so I'm a little lost in terms of what went wrong. Please do share your suggestions on how I can fix this.
