Should I avoid telling the visa officer that I have an aunt in Canada even if he/she ask me? I don't want to tell that in order to avoid visa rejection. Need suggestions.

You should answer all questions truthfully to avoid having your application be refused for misrepresentation and potentially issued a 5 year ban from Canada.
What if the visa officer rejects my application with an objection that I will not return from Canada after completing studies since I have relatives there?You should answer all questions truthfully to avoid having your application be refused for misrepresentation and potentially issued a 5 year ban from Canada.
Then you'll need to demonstrate stronger ties to your home country.What if the visa officer rejects my application with an objection that I will not return from Canada after completing studies since I have relatives there?
From this thread by a fellow member, I come to the conclusion that we can avoid telling the visa officer about maternal aunt when he/she asks about any relatives living in Canada: https://www.canadavisa.com/canada-immigration-discussion-board/threads/embassy-interview-questions-with-hints.55821/
19. Do you have any relative in Canada?
Tip: Be truthful at this instance. Visa Officer will have record of this (about your brother/sister/Mother/Father) with them. If your distant aunt or uncle stays there, then you don't have to say about them. All that matters is your immediate relatives i.e. own brother, sister, father or mother. Any of your relative overstaying in Canada may not be favorable considered.
Please advise.

Like someone already mentioned, you don't have to lie if you can satisfy the visa officer that you are a genuine student and you have employment prospects in your home country after your study.
Is she closely related to you to be considered a close relative? Everybody has a distant aunt/ uncle/ cousin/ someone in Canada but does not necessarily count as a close relative. If that is the case, you dont have to mention her.

Although, I will be on a study leave so I have a definite proof in the form of a study leave letter that I'll re-join my company in my home country after completing my studies. But, is it enough to show my home ties?Like someone already mentioned, you don't have to lie if you can satisfy the visa officer that you are a genuine student and you have employment prospects in your home country after your study.
