The Indian Institutes of Management (IIM) have officially released the CAT 2025 admit card, ending the wait for thousands of registered candidates. The hall ticket is now available for download on the official website, iimcat.ac.in, following a delay of nearly a week from the initial date mentioned in the tentative schedule.
Essential Details for CAT 2025 Aspirants
Candidates who have successfully registered for the Common Admission Test 2025 can now access their admit cards by logging into the portal. The essential login credentials required are the CAT application login ID and password. The highly anticipated, computer-based CAT 2025 exam is scheduled to be held on November 30, 2025. The test will be conducted in three separate sessions throughout the day.
The significance of the CAT exam extends beyond the IIMs. While it is the gateway to various Post Graduate and Fellow/Doctorate programmes at the IIMs, the CAT scores are also accepted by numerous non-IIM member institutions for their admission processes.
