To start the process, candidates need to perform a one-time registration providing basic details such as name, mobile number, and email ID. After registration, they receive login credentials to access the application form. Candidates should fill the form carefully with their personal information, academic qualifications, references, and upload scanned copies of their recent photograph and signature as per prescribed specifications.
Once personal and academic details are entered, applicants must choose their preferred exam center from the available options and provide valid scores of CAT 2025, XAT 2026, or GMAT (2024 onwards), which are mandatory for MICAT eligibility. The last step involves paying the non-refundable application fee of Rs 2100 per phase online via credit/debit card or net banking. Candidates can apply for either Phase 1, Phase 2, or both but must pay separately for each phase. After successful payment, it is essential to review all details and submit the application form; candidates should save or print a confirmation copy for future reference.
