The Indian Institute of Management Indore (IIM Indore) is expected to activate the CAT 2026 application correction facility soon for candidates who successfully registered for the Common Admission Test. The correction window will be available on the official CAT website, iimcat.ac.in, and is expected to open by the end of September 2026.

The CAT 2026 registration window closed on September 22, 2026, at 5 PM. Candidates who completed the registration process will be able to use the short edit facility to modify only the details permitted by IIM Indore.
Based on the correction facility announced for CAT 2026, candidates are expected to be allowed to make changes to their photograph, signature and test city preferences. Other personal and academic information will remain locked and cannot be modified through the correction window.
| CAT 2026 Application Field | Correction Status |
| Photograph | Can be edited |
| Signature | Can be edited |
| Test City Preferences | Can be edited |
| Personal details | Cannot be edited |
| Academic details | Cannot be edited |
Candidates should use the correction facility carefully and verify all permitted changes before submitting them.
IIM Indore will conduct the CAT 2026 examination on November 29, 2026, in three sessions. The test will be conducted for admission to postgraduate management programmes, including MBA and PGDM programmes offered by participating IIMs and other management institutes that accept CAT scores.
| Shift | Exam Tmings |
| Morning | 8:30 AM to 10:30 AM |
| Afternoon | 12:30 PM to 2:30 PM |
| Evening | 4:30 PM to 6:30 PM |
The examination will be conducted in computer-based mode and will include three sections: Verbal Ability and Reading Comprehension (VARC), Data Interpretation and Logical Reasoning (DILR), and Quantitative Aptitude (QA). Candidates will receive three marks for every correct answer, while one mark will be deducted for each incorrect answer.
The CAT 2026 admit card is scheduled to be released on November 4, 2026, and will remain available for download until the examination date. The CAT 2026 result is expected to be announced in the first week of January 2027.
Candidates should check the official CAT website regularly for the activation of the correction window and subsequent admit card-related updates.
Once the correction window is activated, registered candidates can generally follow these steps:
1. Visit iimcat.ac.in.
2. Log in using the registered CAT 2026 credentials.
3. Open the application correction or edit facility.
4. Check the fields available for modification.
5. Update the photograph, signature or test city preferences, wherever permitted.
6. Review the changes carefully.
7. Submit the corrected details.
8. Save the confirmation for future reference.
Candidates should note that the correction facility is intended only for the fields specified by IIM Indore. Personal and academic details that remain locked cannot be changed through this window.
The CAT 2026 application correction window is therefore an important opportunity for registered candidates to rectify permitted details before the examination. Applicants should rely on iimcat.ac.in for the exact opening and closing dates once officially notified and continue preparing for the November 29 examination.
