Hi,
50-60K is too much to pay for a consultant or did you mean 5-6K? We got our PR via our lawyer (immigration) and she was 6-7K, yes it is true that we provide them all the documents but I did not fill thousands of forms, went and checked on sites for information. She guided us and we kept doing-providing whatever she told us.
The process is not tough and an individual can do it on its own, but if you are very busy and don't mind paying then having a professional do it for you is even better.
Hope it helps.
Jona
Ujesh,
I will suggest you to first check if your profile is given in list of occupations in demand in CIC website. If your profile is falling under that list, then only you are eligible to apply under skilled worker category. If you find it difficult to understand the list, you can get in touch with any consultant in India and tell them your profile. They will be able to tell you if your profile is falling under any NOC list given by Canadian Goverment. Check with two/three consultants, and if any of them says yes, ask them about the category in which your profile is falliing and also take NOC code of your occupation. Then go the the CIC website, check for the NOC code, check each and every job responsibility mentioned under that NOC code and if you actually performs some of those, then you qualify (You need to submit proof from your employers about your job description). Don't just blindly trust consultant as they sometimes lie just to get another client and take fees.
No harm in hiring consultant but do your complete homework before to hire anyone. They generally do eligibilty test without any fees.
Feel free to contact me in case of any further clarification.

Hi pokiri, Thanks for the reply.
I'm into Software Testing & Automation. I'll first do a search on Canadian job sites, if there's demand for my skill-set.

Specify your skill set and related position you are looking for. CDs in that field may shed some light.

Thanks for the replies guys. If finding a job is difficult, is it because -
1. There aren't enough jobs suiting our skill set or
2. Whites / French are given preference in most jobs?
Can someone who knows the real situation in Canada.. please shed light on this?
Btw, I see that one consultant I posted above has been masked by the forum (Guess I know what that means ;-), and which consultant to skip).
