Since OCI was taking very long, I had also applied for e visa on Dec. 4.
On Dec. 6 I was asked to provide additional documentation which I sent within 2 hrs of the email. When I didn't hear anything, I sent an email to which I got a generic reply saying it is pending.
Last night I raised a query with Sampark. This morning I received evisa.
Fun fact - I had applied for Single Entry but got it for 1 year and Multiple entries.
I paid a total of $89 USD because that is what I was promted to but my visa document shows the amount paid as $40.
Last time when I had applied for evisa I got it in less that 24 hours, but this time it took almost 10 days. So anyone considering applying, just keep some room for delay just in case.

Looks like they are only giving 1yr evisa not 30days anymore and charging us for USD $80 plus 2.5%
