Generic : Which IIM will make CAT 2026 paper?

IIM Indore is expected to make the CAT 2026 paper as the convening IIM. CAT is conducted by one of the six older IIMs (IIM Ahmedabad, Bangalore, Calcutta, Lucknow, Kozhikode, and Indore) on a rotational basis. Since the other five top IIMs have conducted CAT in the last five years (Kozhikode in 2025, Calcutta in 2024, Lucknow in 2023, Bangalore in 2022, and Ahmedabad in 2021), IIM Indore is the logical convener for CAT 2026. Official confirmation will be available in the CAT 2026 Notification on July 26, 2026.
