# IIM Indore releases CAT 2026 admit card on November 6 2026-11-05T19:41:51+00:00 | Governance | Indian Opinion Desk Corroboration: 6 independent outlets The Indian Institute of Management (IIM) Indore has released the CAT 2026 admit card on Friday, November 6, after postponing it from November 4. Registered candidates can download the hall ticket from iimcat.ac.in using their User ID and password until the exam date on November 29. The Common Admission Test (CAT) 2026 will be held on November 29 in computer-based test mode across approximately 170 cities, in three sessions: 8:30-10:30 AM, 12:30-2:30 PM, and 4:30-6:30 PM. The official mock test is also available from November 6 on the website. Candidates must verify all details on their admit cards, carry a printed copy, and bring a valid original photo ID to the test centre. A total of 2.84 lakh candidates have registered, according to IIM Indore. ## Indian Opinion Analysis All six outlets report the CAT 2026 admit card release on November 6, the postponement from November 4, the November 29 exam date, and the three-session schedule in near-identical wire-style language, producing uniform neutral coverage. The Indian Express adds the registration figure of 2.84 lakh candidates, which none of the other outlets carries. Hindustan Times supplies marking scheme details (three marks for a correct answer, minus one for a wrong one) and section-wise breakdowns absent from the others. Both differences are factual additions, not slants. The remaining outlets, Daily Jagran, EdexLive, Moneycontrol, and Economic Times, stay on the procedural steps to download the admit card and retrieve forgotten credentials, without editorialising. The coverage is straight reporting throughout, with no pro-government or critical framing to distinguish. The most concrete open point is the exam itself: CAT 2026 is set for November 29 across three shifts. ## Coverage Coverage: 6 sources, 6 neutral - thedailyjagran.com (neutral report) straight procedural steps and exam details - edexlive.com (neutral report) focus on retrieving forgotten credentials - moneycontrol.com (neutral report) reasons for postpone and mock test availability - hindustantimes.com (neutral report) live blog with marking scheme and section details - economictimes.indiatimes.com (neutral report) synopsis with steps and exam shift timings - indianexpress.com (neutral report) reports 2.84 lakh registrations for CAT 2026 This brief was synthesised by AI from the 6 sources linked above, so one read covers every framing they carry.
