Credential Authentication: Documents were sent directly by the institution
Country: India
Credential: Master of Science
Year: 2015 ( 2 Year Masters Program)
Awarded By: University of Mysore
Status: Recognized Institution
Major/Specialization: Speech and Hearing
But when the WES is completed, it is treating this as Canadian Equivalency: Postgraduate diploma (one year). Is this normal? anyone has come across such situation?

Yes, it's pretty common for Indian master's to get evaluated as canadian one year pg diplomas. Indians are required to get their bachelor's evaluated too. If you have your bachelor's evaluated, then you can claim points before two or more degrees.

If you need additional points that you're losing for not getting a master's evaluation then consider sending your education documents to other evaluation agencies like IQAS, CEC etc. This might take another 3-4 months...
