Ideally, Yes - you can pay in CAD using your indian credit card. But if your payment has failed once, I would recommending checking with bank, if they have any way to enable the foreign currency transaction to go through on your card. My card had international limit, so I did not have to worry. It does not take long to call credit card customer desk, tell them you are going to make 'X' amount of payment online in CAD. They will check your card details and confirm if your transaction is good to go or not.
When you make payment using CC, the card holder name will automatically print on RPRF fee receipt. If, the card holder is different from the primary applicant, you should still mention primary applicant UCI, DOB, Address on RPRF Fee Receipt. Remember you need to send this RPRF fee receipt back to VO as per their email request.
The UCI no on the RPRF fee receipt form helps Visa officer match the payment against the applicant's file.
I also included a cover letter to clarify that RPRF fee receipt has UCI and DOB of primary applicant, whereas name printed is of card holder (in my case "of my spouse - dependant applicant"). I also mentioned in the cover letter, the application number (The one starting with E*****) The application number is unique across no of people on the application. UCI is people specific.
At the end, remember. this is just fee payment. All CIC need, is to know which application to mark as paid, based on the RPRF receipt that you provide. Dont worry too much, they are way more intelligent that what you and I would imagine.

Thanks aav - so we need to mention the UCI, file number, name etc on a white paper and send along with the receipt. Is my understanding correct?
And are we able to pay in CAD using Indian credit card (International)
