The extended registration window for CAT 2026 closes on September 22 at 5 pm, IIM Indore has said. Candidates can apply at iimcat.ac.in. The deadline was pushed from September 15 to allow more applicants, and the institute has stated it will not be extended again.
The exam will be held on November 29 in three shifts across 170 cities, in computer-based mode. Admit cards will be available from November 4. A short correction window after registration closes will allow changes only to photograph, signature and test city preferences.
The paper has three sections with 40 minutes each: Verbal Ability and Reading Comprehension, Data Interpretation and Logical Reasoning, and Quantitative Aptitude. The Hindustan Times reports that 3 marks are awarded for each correct answer and 1 mark deducted for each wrong one. Registration fee is Rs 1,350 for SC/ST/PwBD candidates and Rs 2,700 for others.
Indian Opinion Analysis
Both outlets report the same facts neutrally, with India Today leading on the extended deadline and the exam schedule, while Hindustan Times adds fee and marking details. Neither carries any political or ideological slant. The coverage is uniform straight reporting. The next milestone is the admit card release on November 4 and the exam on November 29.
