Went and collected them on the same day , as I was in that area . everything was OK ..the lifetime U-Visa sticker on my Canadian PP and the OCI booklet 
Surprisingly the process was smooth and transparent, and within the timeline. Gotta give credit , where credit is due , India seems to be improving in this regard.
Except for the red tape like making 4 trips to get my OCI , everything else was normal.
-------------------------------------
I went physically and did not apply by post , hence 4 physical trips as below.
1. First trip , apply with all original docs and application .
They keep the originals , which they send to the embassy for verification.
They give you the Canadian PP back immediately On the spot after verification, but all other originals like landing paper , indian PP etc etc are sent to the embassy.
2. Second trip , to go and collect all the originals , which come back from the embassy after verification, like landing paper, Indian PP etc etc.
3. Third trip, once OCI is approved ..you have to go and submit the Canadian PP again , so that they can stamp the U visa on it.
They don't stick the U visa on it immediately , which is ridiculous. They make you come back again to pick up your Canadian PP with the visa on it and the OCI booklet.
4. Fourth & Final Trip and the ordeal is finally over !!!
You go in to pick up your Canadian PP with the OCI U visa on it and the OCi booklet !
---------
Hope this helps , anyone who is applying physically. Yes 4 physical trips need to be made !
Plus the pickup and drop off points are at different times !
If you go in the morning , you can only apply !
If you go in the evening , you can only pick up !
So make sure you go at the right time , depending upon if you are dropping off or picking up .
